    What to do with naughty little dog???

    125 up and running!

    If your really worried about running the sump dry you could check out autotopoff.com and set the switch up to shut off your sump pump when the water level gets too low. But if your sump pump is going to put out 800 gph or so your inlet line should be large enough not to clog.
