How Green Is Your Grass?
One of my husband’s biggest issues with getting a dog was the fact that said dog would inevitably “burn” our back yard when it went potty.
Urine contains excess nitrogen resulting from the natural metabolism of protein in the body. And dogs, especially females, urinate anywhere and usually all at once, often causing dead brown patches or lawn burn.
So I did some research and found that there are many products available to fight the burn.
Among the products is Nutri-Vet Grass Guard, which neutralizes the potential for high pH (alkaline) urine that can damage grass. It’s available in a wafer and a soft chew.
Luckily, because I’m home with our dog all day, most of the time I can take her on a walk to go to the bathroom, so I have the ability to ensure she’s not marking the same spots over and over. And when she does, I simply dilute the area with water from our hose.
For those who aren’t home to monitor potty breaks all day, especially those who have doggie doors that allow pooches to relieve themselves whenever they wantto, Nutri-Vet Grass Guard should help keep lawns in the green.

This works well but if you are looking for an inexpensive alternative, one of the best ways to deal with urine burn (if you are at home when your dog relieves him or herself) is to keep a bucket of water handy. Go out with the dog and pour the bucket of water on the spot that she urinates on. This helps cut the nitrogen and should keep the grass healthy and green.
