NexGen Lawns Artificial Grass for Dogs
The Advantage of Artificial Grass for Dogs
Keeping a natural yard in good shape when you have dogs is a constant battle. NexGen Lawns’ artificial grass for dogs puts an end to ruts, mud patches, and destroyed turf giving you a clean, low-maintenance lawn without the mowing or fertilizers.
NexGen Lawns fake grass for dogs uses low-sheen fibers that look realistic and feel soft under their feet and nothing like the hard, cold surface of pea gravel or concrete. UV inhibitors are built in to prevent fading, drying, and cracking, so you and your dog get a beautiful lawn that lasts.
Additionally, NexGen Lawns fake grass for dogs can be the best grass for dogs that suffer from grass allergies. Artificial grass does not contain the allergens found in natural grass.
This can help prevent your dog’s skin from being irritated by grass pollen, which causes them to itch as well as scratch and bite at their skin. Indoor grass for dogs can help alleviate grass pollen allergies in dogs and puppies.
Artificial Dog Grass vs. Real Grass
Real grass and proper drainage rarely go hand in hand. Natural lawns soak up pet urine, trap moisture, and turn into muddy messes that get tracked straight into your home or facility. A dedicated patch of grass for dogs sounds simple enough, but without reliable drainage, it becomes a maintenance headache fast.
NexGen Lawns artificial grass for dogs is installed with a purpose-built drainage system that works alongside our rapid-flow backing to move water and waste through quickly. No pooling, no mud, no soggy ground; just a clean surface your dog can use any time.
Natural grass also does nothing to control odor. Pet urine sits in the soil and builds up over time. NexGen Lawns fake grass for dogs addresses this with an all-natural Envirofill infill featuring an antimicrobial coating that actively fights pet odors rather than trapping them. It’s safe for both pets and children, and it keeps the area smelling fresh without any extra effort on your part.
The difference comes down to control. With real grass, you’re at the mercy of weather, wear, and whatever your dog decides to do out there. With NexGen Lawns artificial grass for dogs, you get a clean, odor-free space that holds up year after year with no muddy paws, no saturated soil, no ongoing odor issues.
Nothing beats a NexGen Lawns K9 Synthetic Grass Pet System!
Types of Artificial Grass for Lawns, Dog Parks, and Dog Runs
There is no specific style of artificial grass for lawns, dog parks, or dog runs that is considered the best. While you might want to know the best grasses for dogs you can get, the answer isn’t that simple. If you have a larger dog, maybe you want grass blades that are thick and tough. If you have a small dog that doesn’t spend much time outside, maybe you want something a little bit shorter and thinner. The goal is to choose what works best for you and your furry friend.

Benefits of Artificial Grass for Dogs for Dog Runs and Dog Parks
Dog runs and dog parks take a beating. Natural grass can’t keep up with constant foot traffic, unpredictable weather, and the wear that comes with dozens of dogs using the same space day after day. Landscaping repairs are expensive, time-consuming, and never-ending and one rainy afternoon can undo weeks of maintenance.
Artificial grass for dogs eliminates that cycle. An artificial turf dog run drains quickly, doesn’t absorb pet urine, and cleans up with a simple hose-down. There’s no mud, no pooling water, and no torn-up patches to reseed. For sections of lawn that struggle with water accumulation due to shade or grading issues, synthetic turf installation solves the problem at the source by promoting even drainage across the entire surface.

Frequently Asked Questions About K9 Synthetic Grass for Dogs
How are the dog urine and waste handled with K9 turf?
Our synthetic grass for dogs is not much different from natural grass. Urine washes through the system into the Drainage Blanket or the specially formulated crushed rock sub-base below. Waste can be removed using your current process; only it tends to be less messy with the NexGen Lawns K9 turf. Instead of having a yellow grass patch for dogs in your lawn, synthetic K9 turf will remain green year-round and dog urine can easily be hosed off.
How do you clean synthetic grass?
Rain is usually sufficient. If necessary, spray your synthetic pet grass with a garden hose. For a deodorizer and cleaner, PE-51 Artificial Grass Cleaner is an all-natural product that is simple to apply. It easily attaches to the garden hose to spray down the turf to help eliminate unwanted odors.
Why install a dog-friendly artificial turf at your home?
Whether you have one dog or multiple dogs at home, installing artificial turf from NexGen Lawns can help with the upkeep of your lawn. Artificial grass for a puppy and for dogs helps keep your lawn cleaner, as the durable fibers help your lawn stay green all season long. It offers an improved smell of the lawn, cheaper maintenance costs, and is a versatile product. Our premium fake dog turfs provide excellent ground coverings for inside spaces too. We can add pet turf to a training room or kennel to your business.
Can you get rid of pet odors in pet turf?
Yes. Envirofill antimicrobial green infill helps to block bacteria from forming artificial grass. Envirofill is used as an infill between the blades of artificial grass during installation. This product is all natural and helps to stop dog odors. Our artificial grass is 100% lead-free and contains ultraviolet inhibitors for UV protection to keep your yard from fading. Our advanced drainage system also aids in odor control. We recommend that the best odor control is to install Envirofill as an in-fill.
Will my dog think fake grass is real grass?
Dogs absolutely love fake grass! Many dogs will avoid pea gravel, cement, or sand, due to the areas being hard and hurtful on their sensitive paws. All dogs love grass, especially NexGen Lawns fake grass for dogs. It provides them with a clean, safe play space.
Will my dog try to dig a hole through the synthetic grass?
Some dogs will try to dig through anything. Our dog run turf is extremely durable with a double-coated backing making it almost impossible to tear – but there can be exceptions. Therefore, we recommend putting a plastic nailer board around the perimeter of the dog run to discourage dogs from digging.
Can my dog play on synthetic grass in the colder months?
Yes, your dog can play on synthetic grass at any time of year, even in the colder months. While normal grass would typically become brown in the fall and winter, fake grass for dogs stays green throughout the entire year. Dogs and children can run and play on NexGen Lawns synthetic turf during any month of the year, whether it is for a birthday party, family gathering, holiday, or simply regular playtime. Synthetic turf not only gives you a lawn that is good for your dog, but it also gives you a lawn that is good for everyone to enjoy.
How do you remove dog hair from synthetic grass?
Saturate the pet turf with water. Then, immediately follow with a soft-bristled push broom or a turf rake. Brush with the grain of the fibers. Fibers tend to lean more towards one direction than the other. Holding the push broom snug against your belt, start at one end and walk the broom to the opposite side. Don’t use brush strokes. This should remove most of the hair.
How does the artificial grass drainage system work?
Each installation of our NexGen Lawns artificial grass product comes with a bonafide drainage system that makes waste management easier, no matter what your current process is. Without the common problems of natural grass and lesser artificial turfs that can bunch, tear or pool the gross stuff for extensive cleanup at a later time, our artificial grass drainage system whisks away any urine out of sight and leaves waste easily visible for quick and worry-free cleanup.
What is the difference between drainage systems?
NexGen Lawns provides two artificial grass drainage systems to meet your exact need. Our proprietary crushed-stone base is the perfect solution for outdoor use. It’s maintenance-free installation has a carefully designed filtering and waste management system that utilizes synthetic grass, Envirofill, PU backing, decomposed granite, drainage rock, and weed block on top of real soil for a more natural look and behavior. Our air panel system is great for areas with heavy rainfall, flat areas (less than 2% slope), or indoor use with artificial grass set on top of a breathable base that always keeps the top layer dry — even under heavy use or precipitation
How do you install artificial grass with drainage?
With NexGen Lawns, you don’t have to lift a finger. Artificial grass offers so many perks and benefits, like drainage and more. We’ll show up, prep the site and install drainage under the artificial grass layer, ensuring that everything fits together and works as expected, while also optimizing the aesthetics of how it all looks. Only once you’re happy with the installation will we call it a job well done, and if there are any problems with the installation we’ll make it right. If you’d rather install your own, you’re free to do that, too. Just let us know if you have any problems.
What is the life expectancy of your artificial grass drainage system?
NexGen Lawns synthetic grass comes with a limited lifetime warranty. However, in our experience, our artificial grass drainage systems can last 20 years or more depending on use and exposure to the elements. NexGen Lawns helps create the best artificial grass for dogs because of its long life expectancy and excellent drainage.
How does artificial turf for dogs solve any messy lawn problems?
Outdoor fake grass for dogs helps solve your messy lawn problems by keeping your lawn dry. NexGen Lawns’ artificial dog turf is the ideal solution for lawns of all shapes and sizes. Our turf specialists measure your lawn and landscape, even around trees and garden beds, to create a well-manicured yard. The end result creates a beautiful lawn that dries fast and includes a drainage system. In addition to keeping your lawn dry, fake grass for dogs does not require any trimming and doesn’t need to be watered, so children and dogs can play year-round without creating a messy and muddy yard.
Is artificial grass safe for dogs that chew or eat grass?
Some dogs chew on grass out of habit or curiosity. NexGen Lawns synthetic grass is 100% lead-free and made with pet-safe materials, so occasional chewing isn't a toxic concern. That said, ingesting large amounts of any synthetic material isn't recommended, so if your dog is a persistent chewer, the plastic nailer board perimeter trick works here too.
Does fake grass get hot in the summer?
Synthetic turf can warm up in direct sunlight more than natural grass does. A quick rinse with a garden hose brings the surface temperature down fast, and shaded installations stay comfortable even on hot days. NexGen Lawns turf also includes UV inhibitors to protect the fibers from sun damage over time.
