The Pet Owner's Guide: Honest Advice for a K9-Friendly Garden

We know the struggle. You love your dog, but you hate the mud they drag into the house five times a day. You are tired of patchy yellow grass, digging holes, and the endless mopping.

At DBG Projects, we don't just landscape; we create K9-ideal environments.

We work in direct partnership with our sister company, www.artificialgrassyorkshire.co.uk, who are specialists in the supply and expert installation of premium artificial grass. Together, we deliver a surface that is tough enough for playtime but soft enough for a snooze.

Why Our Grass is Ideal for Your K9

We understand that a garden is your dog’s playground. The grasses we install are selected specifically with dogs in mind:

• Durable Backing: Engineered to withstand the rough and tumble of active dogs running and turning.

• Soft to the Touch: No abrasive plastic feel—just a soft, comfortable surface that protects delicate paws.

• Mud-Free Guarantee: Say goodbye to muddy footprints in the hallway. Your garden remains usable 365 days a year, rain or shine.

The "Smell-Free" Myth: The Honest Truth

At DBG Projects and Artificial Grass Yorkshire, we pride ourselves on integrity.

If any supplier tells you their artificial grass is "100% smell-free" without maintenance, they simply aren’t being 100% truthful.

The reality is simple: if a dog urinates on any surface repeatedly—whether it is concrete, paving, or the highest quality "Pet Specific" artificial grass—uric acid crystals will form. If left untreated, these crystals release ammonia, which causes that tell-tale odour.

While our grasses are designed with superior drainage, non absorbant backing to help flush liquids away, no artificial grass cleans itself.

The Solution: Bio-Enzymatic Cleaning

To keep your K9-friendly lawn smelling fresh, it requires the right care. We recommend and supply specialist Bio-Enzymatic Grass Cleaners.

Unlike standard disinfectants that just mask the smell, enzymatic cleaners contain good bacteria that actively eat the uric acid crystals, eliminating the source of the odour completely.

• Routine Care: A quick hose down for liquids.

• Odour Control: Regular application of a Bio-Enzymatic cleaner to ensure your garden remains a hygienic, fresh-smelling haven for you and your pet.
