Dog Digging

    Hi,

    We have a nearly 4 year old Golden Cocker Spaniel who likes to dig the garden. He only does this when we are out in the garden with him, hanging out the washing etc. never when he's on his own.
    We could be out playing fetch with him in the garden and he will stop to start digging at times. We assumed he was looking for attention but even when he's getting attention in the garden he will dig if we are there.
    Does anyone have any suggestions how we could stop this behaviour? Is the only thing to have a digging area for him and to try and redirect him to this or is there any other tips people might have?

    Thanks

    From experience cockers love to dig it’s in their DNA... but you can try and deflect away from certain areas..

    Maybe get a kids sand box.. put treats s toys in here encouraging the dog to use the sand box etc
