Stop Lawn Damage From Digging Dogs With Chicago Artificial Turf
You love your dogs, but you hate the damage they do when they dig up your lawn. Grass root systems are delicate and fragile, so it can take months for them to grow back again when dogs unearth them. And even if the turf does grow back, there’s no guarantee that it won’t be damaged again by your dogs. After all, most dogs like to dig in the same spot. Luckily, there’s a way to dig-proof your lawn: installing Chicago artificial turf!
Why Do Dogs Dig Up Yards?
There are many reasons why dogs dig in yards. One reason is that they are bored. Dogs need mental stimulation. If they’re not getting enough activity, they’ll find a way to occupy their time—which could be digging up your yard.
Another reason dogs dig up yards is because they are looking for food or a place to hide from the sun. This can be risky if they find or ingest something harmful.
Dogs also dig because their instincts tell them that there’s something interesting underground. Most dogs have an innate desire to unearth objects, which can include toys and bones.
How Does Chicago Artificial Turf Withstand Digging Without Taking Damage?
Artificial grass is made of tough synthetic fibers that can’t be dug through. The fibers are woven together tightly so no matter how much your dog digs at it, he won’t be able to get through.
Moreover, artificial grass has a solid backing that’s made of polypropylene. This material is strong enough to withstand digging but soft enough for your dog to feel comfortable. It also helps keep the synthetic fibers together no matter how much dogs try to tear them apart.
Artificial grass is also dirt-free, which discourages dogs from digging up sod or earth. Dogs like to dig because they want to get down deep into the soil and find whatever treasures might be buried there. But since there isn’t any real dirt under artificial turf, your dog will quickly lose interest in this activity.
Other Pet-Friendly Benefits of Artificial Turf in Houston
Aside from being dig-proof, artificial grass offers many benefits for pet owners.
Artificial grass is a much better surface for pets to walk on than regular grass. It’s soft, paw-friendly and doesn’t get hot enough to burn paws on hot days.
Additionally, synthetic grass doesn’t produce pollen. So it won’t trigger any allergic reactions among your dogs. It also doesn’t attract bugs and critters that can bite, sting or harm dogs.
