This is probably not an uncommon question, but I have 2 labs 75-90 lbs that live in my fenced in back yard that is about three quarters of an acre. We bought our house in July and the dogs have finally made their mark in the back yard with the 'trails' ......now, I can handle around the fence, but now I have trails going all through the yard.....it literally looks like a tic tac toe board.....it doesnt help much that I have st augustine grass which is very sensitive either.....my question is, how can I get the trails out of the yard....I thought about zyosia (sp) grass, but I am not sure if that will work......anyone have any suggestions?

Need some help with my labs

I'd try concrete!!
Build you a concrete kennell in your back yard with a fence around it. You can let them out on a daily basis but it would keep your yard clean of crap and your child will be able to run around in the yard at the same time. You can build it big and nice enough for them to move around. Don't know what the neighbors would think though!

Will, if anyone had an answer, I would think it was you.....I figured you could get me some grass that clorox couldnt kill......and speaking of, how's your golf game? Hadnt seen you in canton in a long time.....broke 70 three times last summer out there.....including 6 rounds of 71.......we need to get up for some wing shooting and golf....

just concrete the entire backyard....throw away the lawn mower and weed eater... get a industiral broom to sweep up their poo. No worries!!!
Small fence.. My stay in a section offed part of the yard to keep the trails and hole and landmines seperated from the rest of the yard and the 2yo shoes..
