The perfect tomato for my dog

rhines81 · February 21, 2018

Yep, you read it correctly ... every year I put one of my left over extras on the deck in a 5 gallon pot and my dog snips a tomato off it each time on the way back into the house. Beef steaks can get messy because he usually doesn't get those finished before running into the house, so I was thinking of something in the saladette range, bigger than a golf ball but smaller than a tennis ball.
Something that produces well all season long.

This year I'd like to plant a special one just for him.
He's usually pretty good at snipping them of the branch so there is not a lot of tugging going on. But the plant should remain a good size, bushy not too tall so as to avoid his temptation to leap for the high fruit. He'll eat them green, but prefers to let them ripen.

Any suggestions?? Go...
