Since Puppy will be coming home next weekend, I have been busy with Spring cleaning activities in the garden. In an attempt to try to spare my plants and turf in the future, I also created a doggie potty area. Here are photos of the project.

First, I picked a spot that would be convenient for carrying a young puppy to in a hurry. It's located just off our back deck and patio, but is away from the rest of the garden. I cleared the area, grabbed as many leftover paving bricks from past projects as I could find, then lined an area conducive to the size of the mature dog.
