RE: Pee spots in yard

[Rose Tierney]

Hi Jayne,
I have twelve dogs (ten bitches) who are watering my lawn and yes it does
get brown in places but the heavy rains this spring have revitalised our
grass and all is green again for a while (middle of hot spell) We do not
treat our grass with anything, no fertiliser nothing. Its only grass and my
dogs health comes first:-)

If your lawn area is small and you have nice shrubs (probably won't have
those for long as Berners are avid gardeners and landscapers:-) then you
could make an area to train your future puppy to toilet on. Two of my puppy
owners made an area covered with peastone and for the boys put a tree stump
for them to lift their leg, worked great and the lawn stayed green. Hose
down and javex once in a while and all stays fresh:-)

Do not feed any products to the dog that are designed to change the Ph of
the urine, that is potentially harmful to the dog.

Pee spots in yard

[Jayne Duncan]

Hi fellow L'ers,

I know that this topic has already been covered, but I was hoping that
someone could email me privately regarding if there is anything that can be
done to prevent dead spots in the yard where the dog has pottied. I
personnally dont have a dog yet, but a friend of mine says that her dog is
killing her yard with urine and was wondering if there was anything that she
could do to prevent a dead yard.

Thanks in advance!!!
