I can tell you what doesn't work! I bought multiple pieces of concrete edging/pavers off Facebook and put them in my shrub beds where our pups were digging. No help! Suggestions?

Dog's digging habit! Any tips to stop it?
Hey folks,
My dog has started digging up the backyard. I’ve tried a few things, like redirecting his attention, but it seems to be a habit that’s hard to break. I know some dogs dig because they’re bored or anxious, and I don’t want this to become a bigger issue..
Any practical tips for dealing with digging? I’m thinking of building him a designated digging spot or maybe using some sort of deterrent?
Appreciate the help!

@elene12 You might have already tried this but with my dog we 'gave him' somewhere else to dig. It is an area with loose dirt and I try to encourage him to use that area instead.
