    not really con, we got it off ebay, there is only one seller and I rang him. he put a piece on for us and it was if i remember right about £50 but that was 5 yrs ago.

    B n Q sell it now. Its so easy to put down as well, just like doing a carpet.x
    RIP TJ. You my be gone, but never forgotten. Always in our hearts xxx
    He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog.
    You are his life, his love, his leader.
    He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart.
    You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion.

    We tried then with TJ lol he took them out of the bowl and gave me that look lol. We solved the problem though. Astro turf, best thing we ever did.
    No cutting, dog friendly, and looks as good today as it did when it was put down nearly 5 years ago.x

    I didn't think male dogs leave yellow marks on the grass?

    Never bothered with the ones my lady dog leaves - it grows back, especially with the rain we've been having.

    Where ever TJ peed the grass died, it looked so bad we had more bald patches than grass in the end. x

    They never worked for my male springer....... I have a female lab now... So we thought we would try them again.... Still didn't work. Given up now... Just got used to not having a prize winning lawn :)
  • I have used dog rocks and they do work but you need make sure your dog only drinks from its water bowl with the rocks in otherwise it’s not as effective, I leave my rocks in jug and fill the water bowl up from that it’s a bit easier that way.
