When making any changes to your backyard, you always factor in your dogs. After all, it’s their favorite place to be! If you’re one of thousands who wonder if artificial pet turf is the right fit for your family, we’re here to answer any questions you may have. With years of industry experience, we’ve learned exactly how to create outdoor spaces that benefit both you and your pets.

Isn’t Natural Grass Better For Dogs?

Despite this common misconception, natural grass isn’t better for dogs simply because it’s an organic material. In fact, natural grass is actually home to some of the most common irritants that can impact your pup.

Artificial turf never needs harsh chemicals like pesticides or fertilizers, which can irritate your dogs’ skin and airways. Pet-friendly turf is also less likely to host fleas and ticks than natural grass. Synthetic grass gives them that soft, natural-feeling surface they love to roll around on, but with far fewer irritants.

What Happens When Dogs Use the Bathroom on Turf?

Bathroom usage is one of the biggest concerns among pet owners — and we don’t blame you! If you’ve ever dealt with your dog going potty somewhere it shouldn’t (like the carpet), you know how stressful it can be to try to undo the damage.

Our pet turf was designed with this in mind. Unlike real grass, your pet turf won’t turn brown or start to break down after a bathroom break. We developed ultra-efficient drainage systems that quickly eliminate liquid waste, helping to prevent bacteria growth. All you have to do is remove solid waste and give your turf the occasional rinse with the garden hose, and your pet turf will stay plush and fresh!

Does Pet Turf Have Any Allergy Risks?

Artificial pet turf eliminates the risk of your pet being exposed to some of the most common allergens found outdoors. With minimal pollen, weeds, pests, and chemicals, artificial turf helps to keep your dogs happier and healthier year-round.

How Long Does Turf Usually Last?

At EnvyLawn, we prioritize quality and durability in everything we do. Like every other kind of turf we carry, our pet grass is made to last for well over a decade, regardless of pet use or heavy foot traffic. We’re proud to offer a 15-year warranty on all of our pet turf products. If you’re not 100 percent happy with your landscape, we’ll make it right. 

Won’t Dogs Damage My New Lawn?

With real grass, you’re used to your pets digging up holes and coming back inside muddy and covered in grass clippings. Pet turf, by contrast, is made with the strength and durability you need to make those issues things of the past. Featuring remarkable pull-force resistance, our pet turf won’t be shifted or torn up — even by larger dogs. Your lawn will stay put throughout endless hours of play, and you can say goodbye to constantly re-seeding your lawn!
