I am a keen gardener but unfortunately my next-door neighbour has a large dog that loves digging . Every autumn I plant bulbs and every spring I look forward to a wonderful display of tulips, daffodils and snowdrops. I'm always disappointed and it really gets me down. I'm sure my neighbour's dog digs the bulbs up and they're never given a chance to grow . I haven't actually seen him do it ,so I give him the benefit of the doubt . However , the same dog also does me a favour, because if he sees birds trying to eat any seeds I plant , he chases them away immediately . it's because of him that I have such a lovely vegetable patch. So you can see why sometime I love him and at other times I hate him.
