Djgb13 2,338 Posted August 31, 2020 Anyone here use those tablets? They are supposed to help your dogs piss from staining and killing your grass. Dont want my nice grass being killed and stuff from their urine cause the yard is immaculate. Ive seen these tablets and thought about using them on my dogs. If not, anyone got any advice on how to keep the grass from looking like sh1t from their piss? Already clean up the dog sh1t when they do it so its mainly the piss im worried about Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
posty 2,296 Posted August 31, 2020 I doubt it works... I would just find them at Amazon and read the reviews... I always like to read the 2-3 star ones to get a rough idea... The only thing that we have had work, but not often, is that after the dog urinates, poor a couple of big cups of water on it to help dilute... https://polk.extension.wisc.edu/horticulture/seasonal-concepts/lawns-and-dogs-but-not-tomato-juice/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But doing that every single time is a pain in the ass. Wasn’t sure if anyone here has tried the tablets or not Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alias Detective 1,179 Posted August 31, 2020 I’ve found a solution of water, dish soap, yeast and hydrogen peroxide mixed in a spray bottle will fix this issue. Mix up the solution, and spray one time on the brown area in your yard. The grass in that area will be green by the morning. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shorepatrol 1,737 Posted August 31, 2020 Nothing works. My grass was immaculate before my daughter brought 3 large dogs in over the last 3 years. It looks like hammered, dead, spotty , thin azz now. Almost ready to flagstone the whole area. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just don’t want to have to spray the area every single time after they pee. Especially my catahoula. Focker likes to piss all over the place to mark his territory. Swear he only empties out 1/2 of his bladder the first time he pisses so he can still have some in the tank to piss somewhere else 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vuduchile 1,941 Posted September 1, 2020 The only real defense is to keep the grass well fertilized and watered daily. It’s expensive and we still get dead spots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think this is the case. I have 2 labs and no issues with my lawn. I water nearly every day and it's well fertilized (like the GC wives). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lawn isn't immaculate, at least not the back, but it is definitely a B+. And I'm pretty much a get off my lawn kinda guy too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Djgb13 2,338 Posted September 1, 2020 We don’t have a fence in our backyard and it leads straight out into the woods. I’m thinking of trying to train my dogs to piss out there instead of on my lawn. My catahoula will probably just piss where the plants are since he’s a typical male and likes to his leg up to piss on something Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They like to their leg up and piss on things like bushes, trees, fire hydrants, etc. Either way, we still don’t have water cut on yet (supposed to be today) so I can’t spray where they piss yet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
