Yes my area would definitely have more dog interest; areas of long grass, tress and willow screening to test out recall when out of sight; plant scent trails, wildlife hedge etc.

Bearing in mind of course dogs can kill hedges by too much leg cocking  :) . Maybe a bit of fencing to keep them at their distance?
If a hedgehog takes up residence it may not be impressed by a smelly shower (or an inquisitive nose) :D

My dogs would be bored stiff in 2 minutes in that.  You need to let it grow rough.
Always have been, always will be, a WYSIWYG - black is black, white is white - no grey in my life! But I'm mellowing in my old age
