female dog? female dogs will burn the lawn... the best thing to do
is
to
hand pull the weeds and keep the soil damp and cut weekly to get the
grass
to
grow in full and help squeeze out the weeds


This is one of the biggest fallacies in turf management. I used to use
the this myself to sell programs, but after a few years in the business
realized that it just isn't true. A thick healthy, lawn will only crowd
out weeds for a season or two at best. What it really does is attract
bugs, which will create bare patches, which will immediately fill in with
weeds.

If you are going to have a full, thick lawn be prepared to defend it as
well. If anyone tells you that you can hand-pull the weeds and keep it in
top shape w/out pesticides either they are lying to you or they just
don't know what they are talking about.

Yep, tree huggers do not have nice lawns..or houses or cars..etc
