Digging

Hi all I have to let you know what my Gem has been up to, Last night she managed to climb her 7ft tall run and feel free to play havoc with the lawn.
I have (did have) 12volt lighting all around the garden, Gem did not touch any plant or any of the lights, but she did managed to dig 5 holes each about 20inches deep.(no joking) . and by doing this she found my buried cable. This has been tugged at, and pulled through the turf then chewed up into small pieces ( lucky it wasnt turn on).
My lovely lawn now look like a mine Field.
Has any one got any spare turf they can send me

I know Gem is very good at sniffing, but i dont know how she managed to find the cable when it was so deep, every hole she dug there was a cable underneath. strange

Bless...

It is a good thing that the cable wasnt turned on, my pup has ate a cable too, luckily that wasnt turned on either, I have since had to puppy proof my entire house!

Im sorry to hear your lawn is in such a state, the local parks here are too with Jess digging...

I have tried to fill in the holes as best I can as she loves digging too.

Luckily, or unluckily in Jess's case, we dont have a lawn that she can dig up...
