How do you stop labs from digging?

Answer 1

Good question. What you do is you take some crushed black pepper, like in a pepper shaker , and you go put it in all of the holes. When the dog goes to sniff it will sting its nose and he/she will most likely not dig any more in that area. Sit outside and watch you dog. If it starts to dig a new hole put more and more black pepper and scold it. If it doesn't respond then take the shaker up to its nose and when the dog inhales it will carry it up into his nostrils. It should teach your dog a lesson.
