I only have plants in containers now. And not as beautiful as I used to have them.
I want to talk with Luna as soon as the lockdown ends and go to buy some plants at a nursery.
I used to have a lovely terrace with a lot of geraniums on the wall but now I will have to start almost from the beginning. I don´t know how many of them will survive.
After my terrace is done again, I´ll take care of the rest of the garden. I have many ideas and Luna does not destroy plants. O can´t expect to have a decent lawn because she lokes to run there though. Claudia told me that maybe I could put some gravel there.
I wish I could do more

I was researching and came across these tips (good luck)
1
Spritz your houseplants with diluted lemon juice or place slices of lemon in the pots. Many dogs find the odor of citrus sharp and distasteful and they may avoid the smell when it is applied to your plants.
2
Keep your dog in his crate or in a closed-off room while you are away from home if you are having difficulty teaching him to avoid your houseplants. This will prevent him from getting into the plants while you aren't home.
3
Fence off your vegetable and flower beds to prevent your dog from having access to your outdoor plants. If you have a small dog, wire fencing may be sufficient, but if you have a large dog you may need a sturdier metal or wooden fence to keep your dog out.
4
Build raised beds for your flowers and vegetables to deter your dog from wandering among the plants. You can purchase raised bed kits at your local home and garden supply store or build your own using landscape timbers or concrete blocks.

I am looking forward to having some garden in pots when we move.

Luna needs space to get exercise too. Hopefully you can find a spot where she won't bother the plants.

Wish you could.
Thinking of redecorating my office room and add more plants in there!

I hope you can figure something out, I took a look online at what they say about dogs and gardens perhaps this can give you an idea

I would love to try gardening again from container plants. It's been so long. What are you growing?
