How to Design a Dog-Friendly Garden: Where Should We Begin?

Many of you have pets and allow them to roam in your garden. Some plants might be poisonous, so it’s always important to remember the potential harm they can cause. Creating a pet-friendly garden can be challenging for the owner, but the result is well worth it.

Where should we begin?
Take a careful look at your garden and check which plants you already have. You can find plenty of reliable information online to determine if a plant is poisonous. If you find any toxic plants, consider whether you want to keep them and if it’s possible to relocate them to an inaccessible area for your pet. Avoid intentionally buying new poisonous plants.

Think about how much time your dog spends in the garden. It's a great idea to create a designated digging area and a play zone to keep your dog away from your plants. Keeping your dog busy in the garden is always beneficial.

Discipline is crucial. A well-trained dog is always easier to manage, but remember that animals, like children, need consistent attention. If you have enough space, consider isolating a specific area for your dog using a fence. This way, you can keep any plants you want in your garden while maintaining the overall style and ensuring everything is in its right place.

Success.
