As pet owners, we love our furry friends and want nothing but the best for them. This includes giving them a fun, safe, and clean environment for playing. That’s why an increasing number of Dallas, TX, pet owners are switching to pet-friendly synthetic grass for their outdoor spaces. With a softer texture, better visual appeal, and enhanced functionality, pet turf gives dogs an unforgettable experience in a way natural grass never could.

Soft for Paws

One of the biggest concerns pet owners have when switching to artificial turf is whether it will be safe and comfortable for their dog’s paws. While there’s an outdated misconception that turf is plastic-y and uncomfortable underfoot, the truth is that modern pet turf is incredibly soft and luxurious.

The fibers of pet turf are soft and gentle, mimicking the feel of real grass. This means that your dog can run, play, and roll around without any discomfort or risk of injury. Additionally, since pet turf is designed to be durable, it can still withstand rough play and heavy traffic, making it an ideal choice for dog owners.

Cooler to the Touch

The summer months can be brutal for our furry friends, especially if they spend most of their time outdoors. Natural grass can often become hot and uncomfortable to walk on, leaving dogs panting and seeking shade — or, in the worst cases, with burnt paw pads.

With pet turf from SGW Dallas, however, your dog can enjoy their time outdoors and you can have less concern for their safety in the sun. SGW’s advanced TigerCool technology helps reduce heat absorption, keeping your turf’s surface temperatures cooler by up to 15 percent. This means that your dog can still enjoy the backyard during hot summer days while you have more peace of mind.

Reduced Odors

Dogs can cause some of the most unpleasant odors in our yards, but they also have the most sensitive noses in the household. In fact, dogs have a sense of smell that’s 10,000 times better than humans. While there are many circumstances where that works to their advantage, it can also make being outside overwhelming if your yard experiences foul odors.

Luckily, with synthetic pet turf, you can say goodbye to lingering odors. Synthetic turf’s efficient drainage system flushes away liquids at a rate of more than 30 inches per hour per square yard, reducing stagnant water or urine and preventing bacteria buildup. It can also be quickly and easily cleaned with a turf deodorizer, which will eliminate odors and make your lawn more pleasant for everyone, including your furry friends.

Doesn’t Attract Fleas or Ticks

One of the biggest concerns for dog owners is the risk of fleas and ticks. Real grass can be a breeding ground for these pesky parasites, especially if the grass is left to grow long, leaving our furry friends at risk.

With pet turf, however, you can put your worries to rest. Since the turf is artificial, it doesn’t provide a suitable environment for fleas and ticks to thrive. This means that your dog can roam freely in the yard without a heightened risk of bringing any unwanted guests into your home. For extra peace of mind, you can also spray your pet turf with a safe, pet-friendly insect repellent.

Hypoallergenic

Just like humans, dogs can also suffer from allergies such as hay fever. Real grass can often trigger an allergic reaction in dogs, which can result in itching, scratching, sneezing, hives, and/or discomfort.

With synthetic grass, however, this problem is greatly reduced. Since artificial turf is made from non-toxic, hypoallergenic materials, it’s safe for dogs (and humans) with allergies. Plus, the advanced drainage system ensures that there’s no water buildup, reducing the risk of mold and other common outdoor allergens.
