Tip for Stopping hole digging

Most Westies and terriers love to dig, Zach is no exception. Zachary would did huge holes, if we let him. We tried shaking a can with pennies, using a squirt bottle, all with no long term effect. His digging behavior was so strong that the only way to stop him was to pick him up. Boy was Zach upset when picked up, he would wiggle an fight against being held. He had a one track mind, get back to digging. I started asking other dog owners what they used, plus searched for answers on the internet. I do not remember where I found this tip for solving the digging problem issue, but it works.

Now he go to the areas, sneezes and walks away. Yeah!
