Our daughter found that Harper was trying to dig her way out again... at the gate. It has rained quite a bit so the dirt was soft and Harper came into the house with muddy paws etc!
So our daughter and Bob spent time discussing things and ordering stuff from Home Depot ... and he texted daughter/teacher for help. The three of them ( with me watching on) spent yesterday afternoon working on a new solution.
Of course it was super hot and sunny and all of us were ready to collapse when done!! Fingers crossed this time it works... one side of the gate is no longer functioning but the lawn mowing guy will be able to get into the other half.
Today will be a restful one... dinner on the deck at Harper's!
Later... dinner was great. The temperature hit 85 in the afternoon but by the time we had dinner the deck was shady and much cooler.
Our grandson had his first job interview this past Friday... today he learned that he will start Wednesday. he will be working at Hy-Vee. This will be his first job.. all his earlier summers had been filled with marching band's trips and practice.

Don't know if it would work in your yard, but I've seen where folks stopped a digging dog by pulling up some of the grass at the edge, similar to harvesting sod, and placing fencing flat on the ground. Then there'd be a bend lengthwise in the fencing as it flowed upwards to stand like a regular fence. The sod and dirt would be placed back over the strip that is laying 1-1 1/2 foot on/under the ground. So, if the dog tried to dig, he couldn't dig through the buried folded fence. Good luck!

A grocery store is a great place to start your work career. Oldest Son could go back to his job when he came home for college breaks.
