    Op to be honest most dogs will dig given the opportunity my cocker who's 9 loves to dig. While we have a dig proof garden, cobble locking , decking etc when he's up in my parents laws house they have an acre he loves to dig..
    So not much help sorry!
    Some people recommend you get a child's sand pit, fill it with the dogs toys so she may learn to dig in a specific place etc, and not the entire garden.
    I'm surprised its taken her so long to dig (14months) in my old garden my guy was digging from day dot.

    I feel your pain. Our 6 month old husky has reminded his 3 year old brother how much he loves to dig. The pair of them could be hired out to do foundations...
