Read an excerpt from the book:
“Our new puppy ate our yard.”
“Help! Our terrier cut himself on the edging.”
“My cat wants ‘outside.’ How do I keep her safe?”
Do any of these scenarios sound familiar to you? Have you found yourself
wondering how your pets and your yard can harmoniously co-exist? The very
existence of this book should be an indicator to you that 1) your pet is not
uniquely “destructive,” and 2) you are not alone in your frustration and your desire
to create a pawfriendly yard.
As a professional landscaper and devoted animal-lover, I am so delighted to
have found some solutions to your “backyard belongs to Barney” issues—and I’m
even more excited to share my expertise with you. There is nothing more
rewarding than someone who says, “We did not relinquish our dog because of our
new pawfriendly landscape, which lets him have his freedom and allows us to
enjoy, too!” Now you too, can create the best backyard for both you and your
beloved pets!
Whether you have a 10-pound terrier, several 120-pound labs, or a clan of
inquisitive kitties, these ideas are applicable and as easy to follow as the
commands “sit, stay, roll over”! (Well, OK, if you can get a cat to “sit, stay, and
roll over,” you need to write a book of your own!) You’ll learn the basics of having
a beautiful backyard that makes everyone happy and safe in any climate. You will
also learn about how to protect your pets from toxic houseplants and other
hazards, how to keep your pups from “digging to China,” and more great tips on
how to keep your landscape living…and livable. This approach to pawfriendly
backyard space is inexpensive, attractive, and best of all, easy to install.
There is hope, folks. And I’m here to share with you my ideas, success stories,
and how-to advice on creating outdoor spaces with your pet’s safety and wellbeing
in mind. Come along with me as we create the perfect backyard for you, and
most importantly, your critters!
