Thanks, Marilyn! The original purpose of this idea was to help prevent our industrial strength weeds from growing up around the roots of my tomato plants when I first started my garden here. And it worked so well for that, I've just started using it for other difficult situations, too.
My guys are Alaskan Malamutes; Linda's doggie has blue eyes, which is why I was wondering if hers was a Siberian Husky. Picky, picky, picky.....
