3 Pet-Friendly Lawn Tips for a Safe and Thriving Outdoor Space

 Choose Native Plants That Are Safe for Pets

Native plants are not only eco-friendly but also safer for pets. Opt for non-toxic varieties like Black-eyed Susan, Bee Balm, and Coneflower. These plants are resilient, attract pollinators, and are less likely to harm curious pets

Keep the Area Cool for Pets on Hot Days

Provide shaded spots with trees, shrubs, or pergolas to keep your pets cool during summer. Adding a small water feature or pet-friendly splash zone can also help them stay hydrated and comfortable.

Flush and Repair Yellow Spots

Dog urine can cause yellow spots on your lawn due to high nitrogen levels. To fix this, flush the area with water immediately after your pet urinates. For existing spots, reseed with pet-resistant grass varieties like Perennial Ryegrass or Bermuda Grass.
