We all love our dogs, but even the most loving dog owner may be inclined to grumble a bit about those ugly yellow or brown spots in the lawn that are caused by urine burn. These unsightly patches result from high concentrations of nitrogen being excreted in the urine, which can vary with the size and age of your dog, with older and larger dogs often causing more damage. It's easy to see why large dogs cause more damage - more urine. But what about older dogs? The key lies in how our dogs' bodies metabolize nutrients, especially protein, in the diet. Older dogs generally have less efficient metabolism, which results in more waste products being created (nitrogen and ammonia) that must be excreted in the urine. Fortunately, knowing how these lawn spots are caused has helped create a natural solution to help prevent them and let you keep your grass green and healthy, while supporting your dog's health, too. 

Only Natural Pet Lawn Protect offers a natural way to prevent those annoying yellow spots on your nice green lawn. Lawn Protect is formulated with key B-complex vitamins, Biotin, dl-Methionine (an essential amino acid), and yucca schidigera extract to assist in digestion and assimilation of protein and other nutrients, which results in less concentration of waste in your dog's urine so that it doesn't burn the grass. It's proven effective (see our customers' comments below) and guaranteed to work, so this year you can have a green lawn again! 

The key ingredients used in our Lawn Protect tablets and the properties for which they were selected are:

• dl-Methionine - This essential amino acid is necessary to regulate nitrogen levels in the body. dl-Methionine is known to support healthy liver function, aid in the assimilation of fat, and to assist the body in normal detoxification processes.
• B-Complex Vitamins: B-1, B-6, and B-12 - B Vitamins play a key role in digestion and support healthy assimilation of nutrients and metabolism of digestive waste products like nitrogen. Vitamin B-1 has a mild diuretic effect, which reduces the concentration of waste excreted in urine. Vitamin B-6 is critical in protein and fat digestion, and activates many enzymes to break down and assimilate amino acids and essential fatty acids. Vitamin B-12 is important for digestion of all nutrients, in metabolism, and in enzyme activity throughout the body.
• Biotin - This important co-enzyme works with the B Vitamins to improve protein digestion and assimilation, which helps maintain normal levels of metabolized waste. Biotin  plays a critical role in the utilization of protein throughout the body, and is commonly given a supplement to aid any body organs or system that requires a large amount of protein (muscles, skin and coat).
• Yucca Schidigera extract - Research with this herb has shown that it may help decrease urea and ammonia levels in the blood and thereby reduce the concentration of these waste materials in the urine. Yucca may also decrease stool odor.

Please keep in mind that response to supplements varies by individual. If your pet's condition changes in any way that concerns you, discontinue use of any supplements and contact your veterinarian.

When introducing any new supplement, it is wise to start with a lower than recommended dose and build up over the course of several days to a week. Only introduce one supplement at a time. 

Additional Tips for A Greener Lawn:

Providing a high quality diet is the best thing you can do for your pet's overall wellness. High quality natural ingredients are much easier for your pet to assimilate, which reduces the waste products created as food is digested and metabolized. Consider adding a digestive enzyme supplement, especially if your dog eats canned food or dry kibble, to help your pet's digestion. For more information on diet, please see our articles, What You Need to Know About Your Pet’s Food, and The Role of Protein in Good Nutrition, in our Holistic Healthcare Library.

Be sure your dog has access to fresh clean water at all times, and encourage them to drink more water. More water means less concentrated urine, which reduces the burning effect on the lawn.

Consider training your dog to use an out-of-the-way area of the yard. Many dogs can be trained to do this if you use a leash to take them where you want them to go, and give praise and a tasty treat when they use the correct spot. With consistent reinforcement and patience, you can help your dog learn to use a limited area of your yard.
