As Monty is such a dog loving gardener he was of the natural choice for this project. Of course, not only great PR for the Chelsea Flower show but it is also fun to sometimes focus a little more on our dogs in the garden and how we can try and see it through their eyeshttps://www.countryliving.com/uk/news/a64824826/dogs-steal-the-show-at-monty-dons-chelsea-garden/ .

Top Tips For A Yellow Dog Garden
Create nice clear open spaces where your dog can run freely with no fear
Plant relaxing herbs for your dog to smell and explore, Rosemary, Basil and Thyme could be some nice ones to start with. Check with your garden centre about any plants that may be toxic and obviously avoid those.
Consider what colours your dog can see? https://www.uk.pedigree.com/dog-advice/dog-health/dog-vision-can-dogs-see-colour Plant yellows and blues to stimulate their garden enjoyment
Make sure there are some shady areas for your dog to relax in after all the fun! If you do not have trees even just a garden umbrella with a nice bowl of fresh cold water would be lovely!
Include some interactive games in the garden, depending on the size this could be balls or even hide and seek games, hiding their toys and treats in different areas of the garden.
Most of all have fun with your dog in your garden, whatever size it may be!
