Hi..
I will be putting in some sod and know my dogs will love however, their urine will be an issue I have heard. There will still be a small gravel area which they use occasionally for potty and I had thought about a fake fire hydrant to have a horizonal object to aim at.
This being said, has anyone had success with any of the supplements which I see advertized, as long as their not toxic. Are there any more natural treatments besides watering more?
Well haven't just yet. This is a new thing for me to have "green" instead of just rock and pavers. I am sure the grass company will advise me as to the beginning additives. Just thought those out there whom have lawns already and doggies...might have some suggestions to minimize the urine. I am hoping pups will still go to old areas in the rock instead of new lovely lawn. I had considered artificial turf until I saw the bad info about chemicals and cost is outrageous. Maybe more than one vertical obstacle to frequent. Thanks..
Depends on what you feed them! 32 dogs and I Had Green Grass! Dogs in this apt complex come & go. Some leave brown grass behind Most Don't! They Pee & Poo Everywhere!! My dog goes out/in on a 20 ft rope hers rope circle has Lush green grass!
It's the high nitrogen content that's in urine, that can kill plants/grass. Watering (diluting) this nitrogen can make a wonderful fertilizer tho. The only problem is, it isn't evenly spread. Where you could have dead patches, if watered in, you may have has green patches!
It is all dog pee that destroys grass...not just males.
No kidding. My father made me get rid of a female dog way back when I was in my teens because of that very reason. Spots all over the yard. Where I live now there is the same problem. I have two dogs, one male one female. They go in a certain spot all the time which is in an area that isn't large or can be seen from the road.
