Here are some tips on maintaining artificial turf with dogs according to the Association of Synthetic Grass Installers:

• Keep the site free of organic debris (leaves and such) solid wastes will be easier to see and clean up
• If your pet has an illness, you might want to consider spraying spots with a disinfectant
• During winter rains, irrigating the area isn’t needed; during summer sun and dryness, treat with full strength cleaners (except bleach) and irrigate the area weekly to wash the treatments deep into the system
• If you have turf pieces laid on concrete, wood or other hard surface materials, clean under the turf regularly!
