Any advice on how to keep our 9 month old husky heeler mix from digging in and eating the soil in my large potted plants?? I tried cayenne pepper on the soil, but apparently he likes spicy food. 😅 He gets plenty of exercise, enrichment and love, he just really enjoys the dirt.  
I may just end up getting river rock to put atop the soil.  
He especially loves the soil in my fig and dracaena…thanks!

Cute doggo! I personally don't have any issues with either of my dogs eating plants unless it's grass, but I think putting them higher like on a shelf or something, (mine are small enough that I have them on my dresser and some shelves) that would be a good idea, as opposed to a fiddle leaf or large monsters or smth, I wouldn't be able to help you there other than a water sprayer, (humane training)

Thanks Everyone!! I ended up getting some plastic soil guards on Amazon and they seem to be doing the trick! Our curious little guy has been completely ignoring the plants now!
