No more muddy yard !
Well, we finally decided to just suck it up and redo the back yard with woodchips.
So far so good, the yard is clean, smells great, it's easy to clean up after her and best of all no more tracking mud into the house !

I'm thinking about it too. How much was it for you to do this?
We have a HUGE yard... and it won't be cheap, probably.

Did you put anything down first or just put the chips over the ground? How deep is it?
I've used wood chips for small runs in my yard and they always get pushed to the side after a bit and it's muddy again; especially in the areas where they enter.

We didn't put anything down over it because it's about 4 inches deep all over so they said that should stop the tiny bit of grass we had lol. We did put it a bit thicker along the fence where she runs back and forth and so far it hasn't gone anywhere. I do expect we'll have to bring in some new stuff every so often though. But I have to say picking up the poo is sooooo easy with this !
