Artificial Grass For Dogs
When you think you have had all you can take of the destruction your dogs have done to your yard, artificial turf gives pet owners a piece of their sanity back. No matter how many dogs or how big, our synthetic grass will be able to stand up to the wear and tear of their paws and claws. In addition, it also eliminates any problems you have had with mud and puddles.
When thinking about artificial turf for your dogs, the number one feature you need to look for is drainage. Proper drainage will ensure that the synthetic grass stays clean and dry, no matter how often your pets use it as a bathroom.
Our company started with a specialized focus on installing synthetic putting greens, but it wasn’t very long before we realized that they weren’t just for putting… dogs loved to do their business on them! Since then we’ve been experimenting to create the ultimate synthetic grass for pets.
It was not easy coming up with a way to manufacture a grass that can withstand the rigors of dozens of dogs running and scratching as well as control odor. Yet, after over 30 years devoted to research and development, we are confident in the functionality of our artificial grass system for dogs, and we know you will be, too.
To keep your pet’s area clean and odor-free we install a proper under-drain system that works in conjunction with our grass’ rapid-flow backing. We also use an all-natural infill that is brushed into the fibers of the synthetic grass.
Our K9 pet grass is great for backyards, dog runs, kennels, doggy daycare facilities, dog agility courses and more.

K9 System
1. K9 Synthetic Grass
High grade synthetic grass designed exclusively for dogs. Choose from K9 Deluxe 60 or K9 Rugged 50.
2. Proper Drainage
proprietary blend of crushed rock or Shark Drainage Blanket™.
3. Odor Control
Infill: Pet Deodorizer™ (Zeolyte).
Drainage – Two Systems to Choose From
Proprietary Crushed Stone Base
Our Proprietary Crushed Stone Base is a more affordable yet, effective drainage system. Our stone mix was created to allow for maximum drainage to keep the synthetic grass drya and free of urine. We have found that a depth of 3″ to 4″ inches is both sufficient for drainage and cost effective.
Don’t be fooled by other artificial turf companies that advertise the elimination of pet odors with overpriced anti-microbial agents built into the turf yarn. Pet urine always leaves bacteria behind that will proliferate if left untreated, with or without built in anti-microbial agents that can affect the longevity of the artificial grass.

Shark Drainage Blanket™
The Shark Drainage Blanket™ is our most aggressive drainage system. It is typically used in heavy rainfall areas, terrain with less than 2% slope, or indoors over concrete where it provides the ultimate in odor control. It is a perfect solution for commercial kennels/doggy day care centers or for residences that have a dog pen with a concrete floor. Our Shark™ Drainage Blanket separates the artificial grass from the ground or concrete and directs the waste to a predetermined drainage area to reduce odors. Additionally, the drainage blanket has the capacity to evacuate over 4 inches of rain per hour! It is also strong enough to be driven over by a car (we recommend clearing the area of the dogs before testing this yourself) with a compressive strength of 25,000 lbs. per square foot.

Frequently Asked Questions About Synthetic Grass Dog Runs
How is the urine and waste handled?
Our Synthetic Grass System is not much different from natural grass. Urine washes through the system into the Drainage Blanket or the specially formulated crushed rock sub-base below.
How do you clean synthetic grass?
Rain is usually sufficient. If necessary, spray your synthetic dog run with a hose.
Will my dog think it’s real grass?
Dogs absolutely love it! Many dogs will avoid pea gravel, cement or sand. All dogs love grass, including K-9 Grass 50 and 60 it’s Tuf!
Will my dog try to dig a hole through the synthetic grass?
Some dogs will try to dig through anything. Our dog run turf is extremely durable with a double-coated backing making it almost impossible to tear – but there can be exceptions. We recommend putting extra border stakes around the perimeter of the dog run to discourage dogs from digging.
How do you remove dog hair from synthetic grass?
Saturate the synthetic turf with water. Immediately follow with a soft bristled push broom. Brush with the grain of the fibers. Fibers tend to lean more towards one direction than the other. Holding the push broom snug against your belt, start at one end and walk the broom to the opposite side. Don’t use brush strokes. This should remove most of the hair.
Can I install my own dog run?
Yes. Many homeowners choose to put in their own dog run. Give us a call at 707-972-1902 to get started!
