We Warned You about the Evils of Veggie Gardens


Mom and Dad keep talking about their veggie gardens. Fellow bloggers keep blogging about their veggie gardens and nobody discusses that they infringe on our play space and are just too tempting to resist.

Last week Katy and I were playing and just "happened" to wander into the back veggie gardens. No veggies were killed in our wanderings, although I must admit I was not paying much attention. I told Katy we might be able to get out of it by making Mom prove they were our paw prints, but Mom saw one small and one larger size dog prints and was not willing to provide us with legal counsel. Instead, Dad built a small enclosure so now we cannot get near the back corner. This is the best place to track squirrels and now it is off limits for the growing season.

Therefore, my fellow dogs beware of these veggies. Oh, they say they are harmless. They even will tell you how good they are for our humans. However, the first sign of a dog print and you will learn of the evil veggie plot to take over your territory. When I get some photographs I will demonstrate the encroachment.

  1. LOL. I agree! Backyards are meant for playtime, not this gardening business. It is way too much work, anyway. Veggie gardens must be stopped before they take over the dog space entirely!

  4. Mom doesn't worry about the flowers. She says they fight back. I think she is talking about the prickly things that we get in our fur. She doesn't get too angry about the flowers. She is so protective of those evil veggies.

  8. I don't know Bailey...an *awful lot* of delicious things come out of the garden and our Mama shares an awful lot of them with us pups. You just have to look at that garden more like a *treat* factory and less like a waste of spacce!
