Raccoons proofing a pond


Question
How can one raccoon-proof a pond? One morning I went outside my pond to find my water plants all torn up and my all my koi gone with several little goldfish on the ground all dried up. How do you keep them out of a pond?

Answer
Hi Lizz,
Thanx for your question.  Not to be a smart-alec but basically, an outdoor dog or dogs will keep the critters away from the pond.  Once they find easy pickings they will raid the pond until they have decimated it and then move on to green pastures while checking out the old area periodically.  I hope this helps.
Tom
