Do not returf otherwise you will create a patch work quilt!
Get a soil based compost like John Innes number 3, get a few good handfulls of a family lawn seed mixture and mix this into the bucket.
Fill in the holes with the seed and top dressing material and work level with the back of a rake or lute.
Top dress an area larget than the urine affected area so as to try and avoid a polka dot effect.
If you want a fab product go to
www.dogrocks.co.uk and you place these in thewater bowl and it helps neutralize the urine when it comes out. I use them and they are great.

I am getting the front walled in, but I need to know if I would need to just replace the damaged patches, or is there anything I can do to promote growth again? Any advice you can give me would be very appreciated.
Also, I notice in my back lawn I have some very small mushrooms coming through. Is this something I should worry about or do I just mow them up when I cut the grass.
I look forward to your replies.
