We dug down about 8 inches, ran the bubbler through the hole in the valve box and replaced the dirt around it. This has worked and Chica has not been able to get into damage them. I still have not solved the sprinkler issue, but we are still working on that. I am thinking metal sprinkler heads. ;o)
Meanwhile, I knew that I could not build a regular garden. I knew that whatever I made would have to be Chica-proof. This is what we came up with.
I found this image online and the location in the yard that will be best and soon we will build it. I figure if we use chicken wire around the base of it and a mesh on the upper portion I will have the whole thing secure. I will be placing it in an area of the yard that gets full sun all day for those plants that require it, but I can use tarps to cover the sides or top for plants that do not favor full sun.
I am looking at a way to make this moveable if I wanted to move it to a different location in the yard. I had thought about posts that attach at each corner that would allow four people to pick it up together and move it. If the Egyptians could build pyramids without machinery, I think we can move a little ol' garden when need to.
