diatomaceous earth in the holes might work too - and the garden dirt might benefit from the nutrients in the DE ( the stuff that is like flour not the granules)

Be careful and research the plants you have before turning livestock out on it - sorry I don't want to offend anyone but I understand especially lupine is highly toxic to livestock.

I don't know how much time/work you want to put into this - but - I have had success by cutting the plants back to the ground with a weed eater during the hot/ dry part of the summer. Do this when the plant gets to the stage of producing seed cut it back just before seeds are "ripe" . most perennial weeds cycle from year to year by the seeds and not the root system so if it is cut back to the dirt while it is hot/dry it will - sometimes - dry the roots out too. Its mainly about timing it right to prevent the seeds from shedding - maybe I'm wrong but when a plant is cut back before it has a chance to seed they usually just develop more branches but if it is allowed to run its cycle, then it is done with its growth for the year - that's why I wait until it has had a chance to develope seed . it took me 2 yrs to remove weeds from our pasture by using this method - I don't know about these specific plants and how they recycle from year to year but it might be something to check into

When we give it we put a small amount of anything for a treat in a bowl - usually a pinch of shredded cheese, add the DE to it then mix some water in to make it creamy - since it has no flavor they don't notice and its easy to trick them -by using a small amount of treat for this I know they eat it all and with it being creamy I feel like it gets in their teeth to help clean them too ( their breath is better since doing this also )
Our dogs are approx. 60 and 80 lbs. and get a heaping tablespoon daily - I keep an eye on their poo to make sure it doesn't get to hard - so far they do fine with that amount - your dog will get large, but I would guess if you do this daily now as it is "smaller" it should all ready be in its system and could be maintained with a tablespoon when it is huge - for adult humans it doesn't give weight/dosage , I don't weigh as much as my hubby but we take the same amount ( 3 tablespoons) - you will know if it is to much because it will cause constipation

I apologize for that, your right - I tend to call parasites worms

PS
Thank you for adopting a rescued dog !

try a search " diatomaceous earth and hip dysplasia " I have 2 old dogs with knee hip and joint issues - the silica/minerals in DE is supposed to support the bone, cartlidge and over all joints and muscle - search for silica benefits ... after 5 weeks on this stuff our dogs ( 1 is 13yrs and the other is 10ish yrs old) move and run easier - no more struggling to sit or lay down either - also check into detox symptoms they will be detoxing and act like they don't feel real good and the stools might get soft or runny for about a week or 2 - make sure it is a good quality food grade white powder that has no chemical additives

My dad swears by using those little windmills that have the wire to stick in the ground keeps them away - I guess they feel the vibration or something - if they are away from the garden then I usually just let them be and assume its just natural irrigation for the ground - idk

I heard it helps to decide where to place/build a house, to pitch a tent and camp where you might want to place the house, that way you can see your surroundings as the sun comes up and goes down etc. etc. and get a better idea of the surroundings - in the past while trying to decide which trees etc. to plant on our property I contacted our local conservation who walked the property with us and gave us advise about what would be/do best in our dirt etc. they did this free of charge and seemed delighted to have someone willing to help the environment. And personally I like to use berry bushes to block unwanted views.

Ps - remember the north winds and summer sunlight when placing doors and windows - think about this when placing animal housing also

We don't have a pond either - but I have toads . I have a large mostly shaded area that is thickly planted with irises, lilies and periwinkle . I don't treat it with any type of fertilizers or insecticides ( not even DE - although known to be "the safe insecticide" it will dry the skin of turtles and frogs ) no sooner than I realized I had a grub problem and was trying to figure out how to treat it without hurting my turtle ( a wild box turtle that I feed table scraps to, sorta neat he can be across the yard and comes running for food) I had toads move in - now that I know they are there I keep the area they are staying in moist - I spray it down daily with the hose - I also have a hummingbird feeder above it so when the sugar water drips it will attract ants to help provide a food supply
