Pets and artificial grass… Can you get dog friendly artificial grass? What happens with artificial grass and dog wee? And what is the pet friendly artificial grass cost? All your questions are here to be answered in today’s news story.

Often many people are deterred from buying artificial grass as they are unsure if it is suitable for pets, not just for their safety but also for them to…hmmm…. do their business on! As we know our own turf inside out, today we can only speak about Lion Lawns artificial grass due to so many different options on the market but let us tell you that for Lion Lawns pets and artificial grass is the best combination!

Can you get dog friendly artificial grass?

Yes, you can! All our artificial grass types are pet friendly which means that you can be sure that your pet is completely safe on the garden. Lion Lawns however recommend a shorter pile height product, especially for dogs! This is because it is more difficult for your dog to grasp hold of the individual grass blades (especially if they like to chew!) this will prevent damage.

What happens with artificial grass and dog wee?

However uncouth it may sound, we do need to make sure that the grass won’t be damaged or become smelly with dog business. Our artificial turf is fully perforated which means that dog wee will simply drain through. As for the “other stuff” simply pick it up as you would with natural grass and dispose of it as usual. If a mess is left behind give it a hose down or pour some warm water over the area. It really is that simply with minimal mess!

How much does pet friendly artificial grass cost?

The great thing is, usually the shorter the pile height, the cheaper the product is to buy. Finesse Lite, Lifestyle, Vision or Finesse  may be the products for you (especially if you have pets!) and these range from £15 to £24 per square metre.
