New Digs

When we had 8 dogs, we were getting a little cramped & decided to make some major changes around our house to accommodate the pack. We needed to 1)provide more "secure" play area and 2)work on the grass situation.

Drainage has always been a problem here and first of all we fixed that. Then we expanded the old dog yard & added a new one. The drainage thing, as some folks know, is amazingly expensive. The new drains in the dog's area absolutely call to the pack.

Here's the new main yard:

and here's the new "auxiliary" turnout:

Here is what a drain should look like after it is installed:

And, after my lovely animals play around it for a while:

The knuckleheads not only removed the cap/grill, but then began pulling out the underground tubing. Now we are repairing our repair.
But they've had a difficult week being crated while the fence was down & they will be much more tired next week.
