If your dogs are tearing up the fence line chasing critters, you’re not alone. One Ventana homeowner asked for help, and the community delivered a mix of creative, tried-and-true fixes.
Some suggest the direct route: small metal barrier fences like the Getaway Garden panels, or a product like Dig Defence to block digging entirely. Others lean on sensory deterrents. A few residents swear by mothballs, dog poop, or even eco-friendly balloons buried in the holes that pop when disturbed.
For those who are driven by hunting instincts rather than boredom, landscaping with rocks along the base of the fence might be beneficial. Some even repurpose the rocky soil in their yards to build a natural barrier.
And while daily walks help with energy, some say the real issue lies in the tall grass and weeds behind the fence. That overgrowth could be attracting critters and may even be a city code violation.
Either way, if your pup’s paws are busy near the fence, it might be time to try one of these neighbor-approved tricks.
