STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — Who is ready for spring? As the snow has melted away, imagine how letting your pup out can affect the grass around you. It affects not only you but your neighbors if they should stray off the path.

Most homeowners let their dogs use the backyard as their toilet. After a winter of such potty practice, you’ll find your lawn speckled with unsightly yellow patches when the snow melts. First off, what causes these patches?

The nitrogen concentration in the dog’s urine varies by the type of dog, its sex, and what the animal eats.

Female dogs also tend to cause more damage than males because they squat and urinate in one concentrated patch, whereas the males spray their urine over larger areas. Diets high in protein can increase nitrogen concentration in the urine since protein breaks down to release nitrogen compounds.

So, how do we prevent this? You can start by changing your dog’s diet. Feed the dog food with lower protein content so there is subsequently less nitrogen in the urine.

  • Water it down. When your dog pees on the grass, try to water it down as soon as it finishes with a watering can or hose. This will help dilute the pee and lessen its effects.
  • Consider getting a ‘pee post’. Some pet shops sell posts you can stick in the ground to encourage male dogs to pee against them.
  • Walking first thing. To minimize the damage to your lawn, you might want to take your dog for a short walk first thing in the morning so they can pee elsewhere. Just remember to take plenty of poo bags!
  • Provide more water. It’s important to always provide your dog with clean, fresh water. The better hydrated they are, the more watered-down their pee will be naturally! You could also try adding water to their food or feeding them canned food that will dilute their pee further (though this may result in them needing to pee a lot more!).

This is Tiny Dancer…

Meet Tiny Dancer!

Tiny Dancer is a 2-year-old, 8-lb, beautiful gray-striped Domestic Shorthair cat who loves to stare into your eyes and be a couch potato.

A perfect day for Tiny Dancer includes curling up in different areas of the house to nap.
Tiny Dancer's superpowers include using the litter box, telling you when she's hungry by meowing, and being totally content to sit around most of the day to rest. She also gets along with other cats and adults!

Some of Tiny Dancer's favorite things are finding a comfy place to curl up and sleep. She loves to eat any kind of wet food!

If you're looking for a low energy lovable cat who will climb into your lap and cuddle, then Tiny Dancer might be your perfect match!

Tiny Dancer is currently being fostered in Hoboken, NJ. To adopt this animal, please visit www.louieslegacy.org/adopt (Courtesy/LouiesLegacy)LouiesLegacy
