Why is my dog digging holes in the lawn ??????

Did you know that Australia has the highest rate of Pet ownership in the World

According to RSPCA Australians have 24 Million pets and dogs are the most popular pet at 38% which is around 20 dogs to every 100 people (registered)

That is a lot of dogs digging holes in the back yard, which means replacing broken and chewed reticulation, filling in holes and re seading the lawn not too mention the burning of the grass  from the urine. It can work out very expensive to maintain your natural lawn if you have a pet, then on top of that you have to use precious water to feed the lawn and chemicals to kill the weeds and nasty insects. Wow this is exhausting just thinking about the outcomes.

Why does my dog dig holes

• Entertainment – while we are busy at work our pets can get bored, so digging a hole and laying in it can be entertaining, then watching us fill it in even more so!!!!

• Escape – Some dogs may have seperation anxiety and maybe be digging under the fence to find where you have gone too or they maybe wanting to play with the next doors pets

• Keeping cool – Our Perth summers can be very hot, so our pets dig  holes to lay in the cooler dirt 

• Searching for prey – They may hear insects or vermin under the ground especially the Terriers and want to explore

• Burying hidden treasure – When they get that precious bone or toy they want to protect and hide it, why not dig a nice hole in your lovely green lawn

If your furbaby likes digging then why not put a boxed out sandpit and encourage them to use this allocated area

P-OFF

Yes that is right, we have 2 new innovative products designed for artificial grass when you have pets. 

P-OFF odor absorbing Infill

When installing your new synthetic pet lawn, you replace the sand infill will our P-OFF odor absorbing infill, you will need around 7kg per m2, put it ontop of the lawn, and either power broom or stiff broom it in. This is a natural mineral that absorbs the amonia causing chemical in dog urine then naturally breaks it down. The added benefit is if you hydrate the P=OFF odor absorbing infill with a hose then it also slowly releases moisture into the air which in turn reduces the surface temperature of your lawn on a hot day, it may keep cool for upto 3 days. A definate added bonus. 

P-OFF Urine Remover (liquid concentrate)

P-OFF Urine remover is a super concentrated liquid Bio enzyme, you mix with water and spray on the lawn, leave for no more than 5 minutes, then give a good hose to rinse, you only need 240ml per 4 litres water so very economical and comes in 2 litres and 4 litres. We have been using this ourselves and the results are amazing, our lawns smell clean and fresh, hygenic and safe for the grand children to play on.
