We know you have dogs! Who doesn’t? “A dog is a man’s best friend” as they say, and we know you also want the best for your furry friend. Having a lawn can be your (and your dog’s) dream. We know it is important for you to have a yard with the best grass for your dogs.
The grass is an excellent ground cover for dogs because it is soft and doesn’t harm them (considering you mow it regularly). However, not all types of grass can be your dog’s “next best friend.” There are types of grass that cannot be harmed by urine, while others can withstand heavy traffic. But we want you to choose the best grass for your dog without compromising anything.
