70% of households have a pet and these little companions probably spend most of their life in the garden. So it’s only fair that any good garden design considers the pets’ behaviours, needs, safety and comfort. In this episode we chat about what to include, avoid and consider when designing a pet friendly garden. But one pet ain’t like the next, so how do you balance your pet’s personality with your gardening tolerance and style? We’ll talk through plenty of tips, tricks and inspiration to give you the confidence to have that lovely garden AND that cheeky companion.
