The fence must go!

We are totally not liking the "fence" our Mommy put up around our favorite pee bush!    Mommy is a wimp and said the ground is frozen and she couldnt really put it up right-- so she had to improvise to get it to stand up with chairs, pool noodles and lawn ornaments.

Our neighbor was outside trying to fill her bird feeders and was watching what mommy was doing.   I think she ended up spilling some bird seeds because she must have thought our Mommy was insane.   

Anyway mommy explained to the neighbor about the vet wanting her to put a fence around the bush because Benji might be allergic to that bush.

The neighbor breathed a sigh of relief and said I wondered what u were doing.

Anyway, both us dogs gave Mommy dirty stares because we dont like her fence installation job one bit!

I am surprised she didnt just duct tape the fence together.

Oh no, I hope my mommy doesnt read that and get any ideas!


By the way, we dont know what kind of shrub this is.  Maybe its a yew of some sort?  It kinda looks like Christmas tree branches.  We have never seen any berries on it, so i dont think it gets berries.   If anyone knows what kind of bush this is, let us know please so we can look it up for possible allergies.

  2. We suppose you're lucky she just didn't take a chainsaw to it! Hope it's the culprit and the eye allergy disappears.

  6. THAT looks like some of the stuffs OUR mom has done...
    At least you can still fire your pee shooters THROUGH the fence and stuffs.
    WE just hope that it solves the allergy problem.

  7. we have such fences in my back yard too... my mom made the best areas to a "danger-zone"... fortunately no one can look in our back yard, bet the peeps would get a laughing fit when they see my mom's "art pieces" :o)

  8. I have seen those bushes a lot but don't know what they are either. Don't feel bad, your Mom did a better job putting up a fence than my Mom would do!

  9. That is what my students would call a "ghetto fence". Sorry, but I cant stop laughing, because I know we would erect a similar ghetto fence if we needed to. Chewy would be barking at the fence for days.

    I think it is a yew.

  10. Dog Dad did something similar the first year Katy was here with the veggie gardens. It looks like something in the Evergreen family maybe?

  11. Wow, that must have made for an entertaining scene! Sorta like my peeps this morning trying to salt our frozen driveway...looked like they were trying to skate in their boots. BOL Well, the fence may be a pain, but it sounds better than allergy troubles. That could mean a dreaded dogtor visit. Yikes. Hope it works to help out!

  13. You can take a piece of it to any nursery and they will tell you, also you can take it to your state Extension office (that's a plant office run by your state)....

  14. Have you seen this site? I just Googled dog, allergies and yew, and found this site that pretty much says male plants are worse than female ones, so the fact that you've never seen berries on it might be significant. (Male plants don't have berries.)

  15. Oh, silly me! I forgot to include the site about allergenic plants!
