B.B.: "Very few of us own a dog that will water our trees. "
I guess "automatic drip irrigation" can be read a few different ways. W.F.: "Put him in a box and ship him to me if it gets real bad." He chewed some of the bark off an 8ft tall japanese maple last week that we just put in. I never put cut paste on a landscape tree before. That almost got him put in a box, so to speak. He also loves to sleep in newly planted flower beds, which is truly endearing. I think you'd have your hands full if I shipped him to you. He can be a pain in the butt, but he's really not that bad as long as I keep things out of his reach and fence him out of where he shouldn't be. He just sees the world as things to chew, things to catch, things to pee on, and places to sleep. Not that unlike any of us, I guess. The black needles haven't progressed to new branches since yesterday, although now I see some yellow needles on a Colorado spruce (the dog can't get to that one). I'm thinking that they're getting too much water, but if less water doesn't fix it you'll all hear from me again shortly. Thanks! -Jason. |

That pattern doesn't look like anything I have experienced based on the distribution - I have has some frost damage on Sequoia and a little bit of sunburn. Maybe yours were just peed on? Let it grow out or cut off and see if it comes back.
Male dog, right?! Regards, Matt

Thanks TreeBay.
Two male dogs in fact, but the yellow one ususally squats in the yard. In public he lifts so other dogs don't think he's a sissy. If it doesn't come back, I'm going to say black needles were from pee. What does the sunburn look like? Does that look like the brown/yellow stuff? Maybe it's somthing odd that it got from being out of it's natural range. Hmm. Thanks again for all your help, everyone. I'll still be checking in on this thread if anybody else has suggestions. -Jason. Last edited by JR_Roosa : 18-May-2006 at 06:26 PM. Reason: Forgot something |
