I lost 3 large dogs in thirteen months but i take the heartbreak for what they give. I have had to continue learning because each one is different, firmness and consistency is the most important thing the pack leader should learn and they are also smarter than me. I garden in raised beds , the older beds are open to the ground, hubby put mesh on the bottom. Good luck you have to do what you have to do.
