Ugh!!!!
We finally have grass and a nice yard, and there was a chipmunk hole out back by the tree. Well, nosy and nosier found it, and won't leave it alone. (Kito and Abbey). Abbey dug at it at first, and got bored with it, but not Kito--I think we should hire him out to dig fence posts for people.
When they go out, he dashes for that spot, and lays on it so the other 2 don't come near it. I have filled it countless times, and today I put some bricks on top of it--he dug around them.
I recently found a website that said Shibas miss their country of origin (Japan), and have a tendency to try to get back!!
That spot will not grow grass, I know because it has been dug up so many times.
Someone at work told me to try cayenne pepper, and I was thinking of getting the stuff that keeps the dogs from digging or chewing (can't remember what it is called)--last resort, I suppose I will get a little fence and put it around there until it grows, and Chip can find himself a new home.
Any other ideas??????????
