I would not use regular pets.
My bad. Autocorrected.Agree, you need pets that have been specially trained for this.

Definitely agree, not a job for an ordinary house cat.
Does the blue actually indicate that it is rated differently than regular interior pex?Blue poly in at least 200# psi would meet code in most towns as long as you put a tracer wire with it. You can get it in cts (copper tube size), or ips (iron pipe size).
This job calls for a dachshund.Cats generally prefer high places to underground ones anyway.

It can also be black in color but generally blue. It is a pure- core virgin resin poly that is made for underground applications. We get it through a wholesaler, but I'm sure I've seen it at menards.Does the blue actually indicate that it is rated differently than regular interior pex?

def didn't see it at home depot. I am running 1" from main to the house and the only color available was white in 1"It can also be black in color but generally blue.

In most cases 1" is suitable unless you water livestock or have a massive irrigation system. This is Menard version.https://www.menards.com/main/plumbing/pipe-fittings/polypipe-fittings/1-sdr-9-250-psi-blue-ultra-cts-potable-water-poly-pipe/59210/p-1444431553420.htm
Dumb. With those short legs the job would take forever.This job calls for a dachshund.
You will be well prepared when you need to repair it again....an additional note:
I initially bought blue SharkBite brand pex (made in usa) from the plumbing store. It ran $138. Then I checked the equivalent at home depot and it was white $88 (made in China). The specs on each product appear to be exactly the same. Not sure if there is a major difference in the two. Tough call as that is a major price difference.
Dachshunds (German: "badger dogs") were actually bred for hunting. They were used to hunt badgers with their short, long build ideal for digging into badger burrows.Dumb. With those short legs the job would take forever.
