Scott's dog patch repair you can buy it at Lowe's or HD. I don't do anything with them they just eventually go away however mine are in the back of the yard so you can't really see them.

In the dark recesses of my mind I seem to recall a product that can be added to the dogs food that lessens the impact to lawn areas. Female dogs are more of a problem than the males (they just pee on the trucks tires).

Could very well be from the pooch. Dog spots is what they call it. Easy solution, have your dog go on the neighbors lawn. Problem solved! Seriously, if the dog can go elsewhere & you flush the areas of urine, apply nitrogen to turf to fill in those areas, you'll know it was from the dog.

thanks are you proposing a scoop of sod with a bit of nitrogen?this is not a big prob unless u have a small yard.i do .and she wont pee in the neighbors yard ive showed her many times ,guess shes shy.and the neighbors keep calling the law on me.

Not sure about putting nitrogen on as dog spot is basically already a case of fertilizer burn.

It's just the cost of female dog ownership. It's not anything in their urine, it's just the behavior of how female dogs pee, while males go around peeing on everything - a little here, a little there. I have (had) two large dogs in a small yard. Half the lawn turned yellow and died. Tore up that half and reseeded this past spring. Came in real nice but already showing a couple dog spots because the old girl is so lazy and uses the same spot and doesn't get around that good anymore. Never had any luck with watering in to reduce the concentration of the urine.

As I originally stated, the areas are to be flushed of urine prior to nitrogen application. Nitrogen helps with greening up turf and making it full & lush. I have done this quite a few times & been successful. Pick a fertilizer with higher amount of N & K. This way you'll boost the vegetation & also help the root system as well.

It's only a suggestion, so good luck with everything.

thank you pol sawsage im gonna give it a shot,makes good sense.would i get the same results after two /three days of heavy rain as weve had in the south,im asking could i add the nitro and spike/plug the entire yard
prior to the heavy soakers,or should i try to mend each spot?thank you for your advice sir:msp_confused:
