My little dog, Chloe, decided all by herself to keep squirrels out of our garden! Despite her best efforts, the squirrels still managed to take some of the tomatoes last summer.

One thing I did was throw all the tomatoes that had blossom end rot in the general direction of the trees in the hopes that the squirrels would be satisfied with them instead.

I've purchased some bird netting to protect this year's strawberry crop. I've told my husband it would be nice if we could get some of them instead of the birds, for a change!
