Question Do you let your pet dogs poop on your lawn?

A not-so friendly neighbor here allows her dog do that. It doesn’t smell though and I noticed that her lawn still looks great. Is that an indication that dog’s poop is good for lawn?

No I don't. They destroy my lawn. Their poop got something which kills my grass.

I never had a positive experience with dog poop in my lawn. In the early days when I first got my pooch, I had to learn that the hard way. My lawn had these brown spots where he loved to do his business. I had him trained and since then, my lawn looks better.

Definitely not. Aside from producing ghastly spots on my lawn, the smell makes people want to puke.

We often relax evenings and late afternoons on our lawn and having dog poop around would be a bummer

I can say for sure that it will not do good if you allow the dogs to poop on your lawn. my friends lawn was completely ruined because of this issue.

the same issue happened to my friend's garden when he allowed his pet cat to do that and it did not produce anything good to his garden infact it ruined the grace of the garden and soon he had to stop that....
