I have 2 APBTs and like Gordy says dog urine can kill the lawn it has to do with the PH levels. I have tried all the different pills needless to say the do not work. I mentioned this to their Vet and he said " It is not a good thing to give them those pills because it messes with the PH in their system and can cause future problems with their health.. ie. kidney and liver problems." Since then I have found something that WORKS. I talked to a local Landscaper about this, he told me he was having the same problem so he did some investigating and found out that GYPSUM helped keep the grass from dying off. Here is waht you do, purchase GYPSUM at a local Nursery,($5.00/40lbs bag), pre treat the dead areas with 1/2 cup over each area water regularly(1" a week) and after 2 weeks remove the dead grass, and reseed. The remainder of the lawn gets treated once a month every month(unless snow covered)with a spreader and the lawn will come back and you will have no problems.The GYPSUM neutralizes the urine but you have to keep up with every month.It worked wonders for me and I have the nicest lawn on the block. It is worth the time effort and money.
