Anybody out there have any ideas on how to stop a dog from digging underneath a backyard to escape?

My pooch has discovered the tactic and I'm doing my best to avoid putting down concrete along my fence.

Try lining your fence with chicken wire. About 1/2 a foot lines the bottom of the fence and the remainder lines the ground. Be sure to bury the chicken wire that lies on the ground. It really prevented my dog from digging and getting out.

Try using peppers. Buy some hot peppers. Blend them to a pulp. Mix the pepper pulp and water together in a gallon container. Spray along the fence line. It is not harmful to the pets and dogs don't particularly care for peppers. The pepper smell tends to discourage them. After a while they won't try to dig anymore. Try it. It is cheaper than chicken wire. No offense.
