Default Dogs on lawns :-(

Well, they used to say that bottles or open bowls of water placed where the

Big garden - several lawns - they pee everywhere :-(


This is probably no help now, but if the dogs are young it
is quite easy to train them to only do business off of the
lawns. If you've got a field within easy distance they
can tell the difference between short-cut and long-cut
grass.

Our 2 yr Golden hasn't peed on the lawn in nearly 2 yrs.

The down side is on car trips it can be difficult to persuade
them to use the rest area if only lawn is available.
