subject: Dogs And Synthetic Grass [print this page] Households of all kinds can enjoy the many benefits of a synthetic grass lawn, including families or households with dogs. Since the beginning of time, man and dog have been inseparable. However, many a man's lawn has suffered from pet damage. This includes brown spots, dead spots, tracking in paw prints, and barren areas. Natural lawns undergo heavy traffic and play from dogs of all breeds. Thus, such negative effects are basically inevitable and can wreak havoc on any lawn. With synthetic grass lawns, each and every one of these concerns is completely eliminated. Imagine a low maintenance yard that withstands traffic and play that even the largest dog breeds play on. Synthetic grass is the ideal lawn solution for families that have either a single dog or multiple dogs.
One of the many concerns about lawns for homes with dogs is whether or not it can withstand urine and pet waste. Synthetic grass yards are designed specifically to hold up even when coming into contact with pet waste and urine. It has a protective coating and is engineered to stand up to acidic liquids like pet urine, without disintegrating or melting. Synthetic grass' UV shield coating helps to keep pigment and tint bright and natural, even after coming in contact with urine. Modern synthetic grass also has a technologically advanced drainage system in which the turf backing is heavily perforated with several holes. It is through these holes that liquids like dog urine can easily drain through effortlessly and effectively in multiple directions. The ability to drain urine through ensures that pet odor is kept to a minimum. Solid pet waste can easily be retrieved manually, like on a regular lawn, and/or hosed off for optimal cleaning. When hosed off, the drainage system keeps the surface of the turf nice and dry. If desired, regular household cleaners can be used for simple stains and effectively remove them from the surface of the synthetic grass.
Another great aspect about synthetic grass for dogs is the fact that it is very durable. Whether you have a single small dog, or multiple large breed dogs, a synthetic grass lawn stays intact and remains strong for several years. Pet turf is designed especially to withstand rough play and high traffic day in and day out. Digging, pouncing, jumping, and rolling around can be thoroughly enjoyed by dogs without the owners' concern for their lawn. The intricate yarn composition and weaving create a very sturdy surface that lasts for years and years. Aside from being durable, synthetic grass for dogs is also very comfortable. The fine blades not only look, but also feel soft and natural to touch, as your dog will barely know the difference between a natural lawn and synthetic grass lawn. The infill layer helps to add cushion and comfort for dogs, so they can play and enjoy themselves without slipping around or getting injured. From comfort and endurance, to easy maintenance and reliability, synthetic grass lawns area ideal for families with dogs.
