“Well, the low maintenance, durability and beautiful manicured appearance of artificial turf really appeal to me,” you say, “but I have two dogs and a cat, so I guess it's not an option.” Not so fast. Go ahead and sell that lawnmower, because Your Turf Store's materials are safe for pets, and self-cleaning whenever it rains. Any “leftovers” are easily hosed off, with no stains ever. In fact, we even have several a-grass products that are specifically designed with pets in mind. They are hard-wearing, non-stain, odor-resistant and especially fast-draining.
So the fact is, whether you buy turf that is specially designed for pets, or just standard artificial turf, your pets will be just as happy as if it were earth and grass, but you'll be even happier as you say goodbye to muddy paws and expensive constant maintenance!
Drainage
There are a number of drainage designs built into artificial grass solutions, and all are suitable for pet use. Chief among them are the two main a-grass backing drainage types: hole punch and coffee filter type.
Call and get a Heavenly Greens design advisor to answer any questions that you may have or for additional information and in-depth analysis of artificial grass drainage.
Cleaning
The biggest single thing you can do to keep your a-grass clean is to remove any foreign matter, like twigs, leaves, chewing gum etc. Any oils, grease, battery acid and the like are also no-nos. Just hose it down from time to time if you haven't had rain for awhile, and you should be good to go. For more information have a look at this article.
To Infill or Not To Infill What exactly is infill?
By definition, "Infill" is either an acrylic coated, green colored sand with antimicrobial properties or black crumb rubber particles. Either infill product is put in between the blades of the artificial grass lawn products to deliver a complete solution. Infill can help you keep your a-grass clean and add to the feel of real turf. But there are also pet-friendly designs that make it unnecessary. Check with our a-grass experts to choose the solution that's right for you.
So Spoil Your Pets!
They deserve it, don't they? No scolding for dirty paws, passive-aggressive owners as they mumble beneath their breath while sowing yet another round of grass seed that won't ever overcome the constant pounding their pet happily subjects it to! And you know what? YOU deserve it too.
Get a synthetic grass lawn that you and your pet will love. A trustworthy advisor from Heavenly Greens will help you with a great design.
