climbers dogs don't like??
« on: March 25, 2012, 23:48 »
I put up an arch way last year and bought climbing roses hoping the dogs would try there luck and get prickled. No such luck they demolished the thing. Does anyone no of any climbers that dogs dont like (not poisonous though  :lol:) Im pretty useless when it comes to gardening so preferably something easy. :)

Can't think of anything the dogs wouldn't chew. Best to set a temporary cage around the plant until it's old enough to fend for itself. A nice prickly rose or prickly blackberry would eventually change their minds.

Cages around the plants is the only thing that has worked for us with our rescue dog.

We have a standard rose in the garden and shes good at keeping that trimmed so no new shoots grow from the stem.

We have ended up splitting the garden in 2, a dog half, and a plant half.
