Anyone have this problem??

[2BLUE]

I just got my yard looking good but my female dog is killing my grass big time. Has anyone bought pills or something to bring down her PH level?

I'm using grassavers with moderate results. Seem to help, but not cure the issue.

whats grassavers? pills for the dog?

Thats the only thing i have heard that helps...pills for the ph level and lime is spose to work.

Set a little area in the yard that can be used to her to pee, and then train her to pee there and only there.

put a bit of tomato juice in her food every day just a tiny bit will do

Water the spot she pees on with your garden hose right as soon as she finishes. This will dilute it so it won't kill your lawn.

I can't do that everytime shes out there...LOL

Yeah its inconvenient but it does work. Even just the times you are out there will help though.

I'm doing both the pills, and working on training her to pee in the location of the future dog run.... so far, inconsistent results, but hey, it's helping a bit.

Heck of a lot easier than replaced a wack of sod every year.

what my uncle does is he waters the lawn everyday at night for about an hour and so far no dead grass:)

spread lime (soil sweetener) on your lawn concentrating on the yellow spots and water it in.
The lime will neutralize the ph level in your soil.

What about the excess nitrogen from the urine?
