Naughty Boy!

I have a problem- well actually, I have heaps of problems, but I am only sharing one of them with you today! My dog keeps digging up my garden, specifically an area I lovingly broke my back on, by laying down a tonne of white decrorative stones, bag by blooming bag. 
My neighbour had spent a few days watching me put right the disaster  my masscot had created and knowingly told me (although he has no pets at all) that I should stop my dog. Duh! Yes, I know that- but how! I have tried scolding him, but he just turns to me all big eyed and sorrowful, and ten minutes later he is causing havoc again. I have tried reasoning with him, explaining the errors of his ways, it goes in one ear and out the other! I have completely flipped my lid and screamed and ranted at him, but after looking apologetic for a few minutes, as soon as my back is turned, he is at it again. I have even tried growling at him, like his mother used to. All the afore mentioned to no avail!
So, what am I to do? Stop him going out? Keep watch over him 24/7? Just accept his behaviour, I mean so many of them are like this? Is he really worth all this extra work, stress and upset? Bloody MEN- oops, I forgot I was actually talking about my dog!

You Brought Me Flowers.

You brought me flowers,
but it was just too late.
You realised my worth,
but it was just too late.
You talked of "us",
but it was just too late.
You gave and did not take,
but it was just too late,
You proved not spoke of love,
but it was just too late.
You stood by me ,
but it was just too late.
You cried for real,
but it was just too late.
You brought me flowers,
but it was just too late.
