My Dog Keeps Killing My Lawn
Mark Woodcock wrote: Thanks for all your replies. Dont think I will be throwing any water on my dog though!! I dont have a large garden and there really is no other option than for her to go on the grass. She will often go out unsupervised so I dont always know where she has gone. I suppose I was looking for something that I could maybe put on the grass as either a treatment after the event or something that I could treat the grass with that would stop the discolouring in the first place. I have heard about something that you can put in a dogs water that helps with this problem but I would rather treat the grass than the dog. Mark It is the high concentration of urea/uric acid in the dog's urine that is killing the grass. The effect is more noticible with bitches than dogs as they, the bitches, dump their load in the one place. Just dilute the urine with a bucket of water or the hose as soon as the deed has been done, this will reduce if not negate the effect and the diluted urine will act as a high nitrogen fertilizer thus feeding the lawn. |
