Yes ... this was a mistake. The building sits low to the ground at the back, higher on the door side. I never thought something would crawl under and try to dig through. The rocks are HEAVY and I thought surely nothing would move them.Your rock foundation can be made more secure by restacking, then covering with a coat of mortar to fuse them together

I see your point ... I think the mistake I made was ignoring the "domestic" threats. I should have eliminated them from the beginning ...worst thing I did was trust someone else would be worried about my animals. Lesson learned.
Regarding the fence ... My intent was always to raise "free range" birds with emphasis on "Free" ... I expected losses by way of a nature tax, but I never anticipated a collared pet to dig through a stacked stone foundation. Another lesson learned.
Double stacked ... several hundred pounds of rock and hours work.

Do you have a scope on a varmint rifle? I would leave a gate open for that dog to come in and shoot it. Before I let my dog stay out of the pen I would get a neighbor's dog in my yard and I would hit it with the pellet gun to deter it. I haven't seen it since I have let my dog out of the pen. I don't know if the pellet gun gave it something to remember, my dog keeps it away, maybe penned up or dead.
