Dog Friendly?

I need to resod my (small) yard. Biggest problem we have is the dog peeing and killing the grass. What’s the most dog resistant sod you all have found?

Many Thanks,

kevin

need to know where you live! that’s the issue, not if it’s dog friendly or not. the correct turfgrass, maintained properly will work with the dogs.

Thanks for the reply Ted. I live in Southern California, near the ocean, no rain to speak of annual temps from 50 to 80. lawn area gets good sun in summer, 1-2 hrs in winter……

i would probably go with tall fescue- got a friend in yorba linda with it. works great in your temps. just maintain it properly – you’ll have alot less trouble with the dogs. i had 2 large dogs on mine- no problems.
