For those with dogs

When you dog goes and pees on your lawn... do the grass just seem to die? Ever since getting my new pup, hes pees all over my lawn and well... there are a bunch of yellow spots all over now from dead grass. What's the cause of this? Something he has/ doens't have in his diet?

 

[hellorhih2o]

the cause of it is... dog urine. pee. i've taught my dog never to go on grass (unless it's my butt ugly neighbor’s lawn) and he has figured it all out (smart bastard). It doesn’t matter what you do to your pups diet, dog urine will kill grass.

whiz-- is your dog a dalmation???? their pees really acidic (sp)-- kills off everything...

What type of grass do you have. Bermuda doesn't seem to mind. Zoshia or something migh tbe affected.

I've been through that recently with my 2 Boxers. There are pills you can buy to give them that are supposed to stop the acid from burning your grass- don't waste your money cuz they don't work. After asking alot of people the only good advice I got is to water your lawn right after they piss- it dilutes the acid enough to prevent the burn....or you can pour a bucket of water on the spot if you know exactly where it is.

YES...

It's kinda like putting too much fertilizer on the grass and it gets Burned by the nitrogen..

Urine has a lot of Nitrates and so burns the yard..
All you can do is either make the go in different spots occasionally and water that area of the lawn extra good to dilute it to prevent the burn..

My baby is a 4 year old Min. Doberman. He's a boy. His urine is like fertilizer. There are patches of thick, dark green grass throughout our neighborhood.

I have a 4 month old Beagle. Grass? i dunno... it's Scotts... and it's green.

Ketosis? LoL i wouldn't be suprised. He eats no carbs what so ever.
