A Potty For Dogs: The Problem

There is good reason many dog and pet owners and facilities are turning to artificial turf! A great, safe, and low-maintenance surface for our four-legged friends.

Dogs are great–we love them! But having a pet means having a potty for them. The problem is that the yard becomes the pet potty, leaving yellow spots in your grass and smelly, often hidden droppings all over the place. Your yard is also where your kids play, where you would lay a blanket out for a picnic and where you play yard games during your BBQs. You try to keep it clean, but you occasionally mow over a pet poop, or worse, step in one! It can ruin your day.

And remember when the kids promised if you got them a puppy that they would clean up after it? You can try to enact a regular cleaning schedule, but you know that struggle. Don't let your lawn start to look like empty promises and a mine-field of dangerous droppings. What if there were a great solution to your pet pooping problem?

Fake Grass For Dogs: The Solution!

Artificial turf for dogs is a great option! This low-maintenance system means you don't have to pick up before you mow or have company, and your lawn stays green! The turf stays green too–it doesn't get ruined by pet urine or scat. Everyone's a winner!

Our artificial turf is the best artificial grass for making a dog potty area. It's a safe, low-maintenance surface designed to let urine pass through it, and to be easily cleaned. Give your four-legged friend a special place to do their dooty. Fake grass for dogs to pee and "go" on means you get a cleaner yard, healthier grass, easier cleanup and a designated potty area. No more yellow spots in the lawn and no more unpleasant "surprises!"

Whether you are designing a large dog-park, or a smaller, residential area, we can tailor a customized solution for your needs.

Talk to a Turf Expert

q: HOW LONG DOES ARTIFICIAL TURF LAST?

A: With proper installation and basic maintenance, high-quality artificial turf will last 15 to 25 years depending on the product, the application, and the amount of traffic it receives. All of our turf products are backed by manufacturer warranties, and our installation process is designed to maximize the lifespan of every project.

q: IS artificial TURF PET FRIENDLY?

A: Yes. Our turf products are non-toxic and designed to handle heavy pet use. Pet-specific turf options feature enhanced drainage systems and antimicrobial infill that help control odor and simplify cleanup. Turf eliminates the mud, dead spots, and digging damage that come with natural grass in high-traffic pet areas.

Q: IS ARTIFICIAL TURF SAFE FOR KIDS?

A: Yes. Every turf product we carry is lead-free, non-toxic, and designed to meet safety standards for residential and commercial use. Turf provides a softer, more forgiving surface than hard-packed dirt, gravel, or concrete, making it well suited for play areas and backyards with heavy foot traffic. For playground applications, we offer shock-absorbent products that meet fall height protection standards.

q: Does artificial turf get hot?

A: Yes, artificial turf absorbs heat and the surface temperature will rise in direct sunlight during the summer months. You should still be able to walk on it barefoot under normal conditions, but on particularly hot days a quick spray with a garden hose will bring the surface temperature down. Shaded areas and lighter-colored turf products tend to stay cooler.

q: Does artificial turf smell?

A: Modern turf products have largely eliminated the plastic odor that older generations of artificial grass were known for. If you notice any smell after installation, it typically fades within a few days. For pet areas, occasional rinsing with water and a mild cleaning solution like Simple Green will prevent any odor buildup from pet waste. Our pet-specific turf products also include antimicrobial infill that helps control odor at the source.

Q: HOW MUCH DOES ARTIFICIAL TURF COST?

A: The cost of an artificial turf project depends on the size of the area, the turf product selected, and whether you're doing a DIY install or hiring our crew for professional installation. We offer wholesale pricing on all of our products and provide free quotes for every project. Contact us with your project details and we'll give you accurate pricing.

Q: DO YOU OFFER FINANCING?

A: Yes. We've partnered with Hearth to offer financing options including $0 down and 0% interest plans for qualified buyers. Loan amounts are available up to $250,000, no home equity is required, and there are no prepayment penalties. You can prequalify in minutes without affecting your credit score.

Q: HOW MUCH CAN i SAVE ON WATER WITH ARTIFICIAL TURF?

A: Most homeowners in Utah and Idaho save between $1,200 and $2,400 per year on water costs after switching to artificial turf, depending on the size of the lawn being replaced and local water rates. Turf eliminates outdoor irrigation entirely, which is the largest source of residential water consumption in the region.

Q: WHAT MAINTENANCE DOES ARTIFICIAL TURF REQUIRE?

A: Artificial turf requires very little maintenance compared to natural grass. The two most important tools are a leaf blower for clearing debris and a power broom for keeping the turf blades upright in high-traffic areas. Occasional rinsing with a hose will keep the surface clean. For pet areas, regular rinsing with water and a mild cleaning solution will prevent odor buildup. There is no mowing, watering, fertilizing, or aerating required.
