Q: Hi Chris, we have been trying for about 4 years to establish grass in the area or dog used to be tied up in. We no longer have any pets but in that area grass will come up good but after about six weeks it dies out. The dog was tied up there for about 15 years. Is there anything we can do for the ground? We live in North Central Kansas where the summers are usually hot & dry.
A: Hmm. That's a tough one, but I CAN tell you that the remnants of the doggie wee wee are long gone. This problem is coincidentally in the same area where the dog was, but is not a result of the dogs residence. Dog urine has high concentrations of ammonia, which dissipate quickly with rain. It'd be gone only a week or so after the dog was no longer marking the territory.
Can you send in some pictures or a digital video clip? It'd help me get a good idea of what you are looking at. Get a few from further away and a few from close up. Thanks! Hopefully others will also learn from this.
