When you’re a dog owner who also values the appearance of your property, things can be a bit of a coin toss. Do you let your pet enjoy regular exercise and enrichment, or do you minimize their yard time to avoid muddy paw prints, patchy grass, and endless maintenance?
You’re not alone in this dilemma. Many pet owners find themselves caught between wanting a clean, beautiful yard and dealing with the challenges of traditional grass. At AGL Grass, we get it (we’re pet owners too), which is why all of our products are 100% pet-friendly and non-toxic. They keep your yard looking great all while providing a safe, comfortable play space for Rover or Peanut Wigglebutt.
In this guide, we’ll show you why AGL Grass is the best low maintenance pet turf and how to keep your synthetic turf looking and smelling great. If you’re still weighing your options, check out our guide on the best artificial grass for dogs to help you find the perfect fit.
Why AGL Grass is a Game-Changer for You and Your Dog
Regular grass may look nice when freshly seeded, but when you add pets into the mix, things can go downhill fast. Think mud, dead patches, lingering odours… the list goes on. That’s why many homeowners compare artificial grass vs. natural grass to weigh the pros and cons before making the switch. With low maintenance pet turf, you eliminate these common frustrations while keeping your yard beautiful year-round. Here’s why our AGL products solve all these pain points:
- Pet-Safe and Non-Toxic: Safety comes first, always. Our products are designed specifically for pets, so it’s completely non-toxic. That means no harsh chemicals or pesticides – just a soft, durable surface that’s gentle on paws and resilient enough for the most rambunctious canines.
- Clean and Odour-Free: Infill-free artificial grass makes cleanup a breeze. With AGL’s fast-drain technology, liquids flow right through our grass, keeping it dry and odour-resistant. Say goodbye to infill traps that cling to fur, harbour unpleasant smells, and cause extra maintenance. Our products keep your yard looking clean and fresh, rain or shine.
- Built to Last in High-Use Areas: Our artificial turf doesn’t just look great – it’s made to last.It resists stains, withstands traffic, and maintains its lush appearance without fading. No more brown spots or muddy patches; your yard stays green and vibrant all year, without the need for mowing or constant upkeep.
- Cooler for Comfortable Playtime: Unlike synthetic grass options that heat up quickly, AGL Grass is engineered to stay only 5–15 degrees warmer than natural grass. Even on sunny days, your pets can safely enjoy the outdoors without uncomfortable hot spots.
How to Keep Pet Turf Low Maintenance
Now that you’ve got a beautiful, pet-friendly yard, let’s talk about how you can keep it in top shape. The good news? Low maintenance pet turf requires minimal effort to stay clean and looking great. With just a few simple steps, your yard will remain as fresh and inviting as the day we installed it for you.
Clean Up Pet Waste Without All the Hassle
Like we said early, the infill-free grass design makes cleaning up after your pets simple and hassle-free. Just scoop solid waste as you would on any lawn, but without worrying about trapped residue or stains. A quick rinse with a garden hose will keep the area fresh, while the fast-drain backing allows water to flow through quickly, leaving your lawn dry and clean for playtime.
Rinse Regularly to Control Odours
Our grass products are naturally odour-resistant, but periodic rinsing, especially during warmer months and for yards with multiple pets, keeps everything smelling fresh. Unlike traditional infill-based turf, our grass needs zero infill, designed to drain fast and prevent odour buildup without requiring added materials. Just a quick spray with a hose is usually enough to control any lingering smells. For extra odour control, use a pet-safe artificial grass deodorizer spray to neutralize ammonia (the main cause of urine odour).
Brush Occasionally to Maintain That Lush Look
Pets have favorite spots for napping, playing, and rolling around, and regular use can cause the grass blades to slightly flatten. To keep your grass looking lush and full, feel free to brush it once in a while with a stiff broom or synthetic-bristle brush. Focus on the high-traffic areas, using gentle pressure to fluff up the grass. Avoid using metal rakes or hard-bristle brushes, which can damage the fibres.
Remove Leaves and Debris
Keep your yard pristine by clearing away leaves, twigs, and other debris regularly. A leaf blower or a plastic rake with soft prongs is ideal because it keeps the grass free of clutter without disturbing the blades. It’s an easy way to ensure your lawn is always ready for play.
Enrichment for Dogs at the Hamilton-Burlington SPCA
AGL Grass doesn’t just make life easier for homeowners – we’re also making a real impact for pets in need. Recently, we partnered with the Hamilton-Burlington SPCA to install a specialized outdoor play area for long-term canine residents. These dogs often face extended stays at the facility, and they need spaces that support their mental as well as physical well-being.
With AGL’s artificial grass, the HBSPCA created a stress-free, engaging environment where dogs can play, interact with staff, and enjoy some time outside the kennel. The clean, durable surface also makes it easier for staff to maintain the area, supporting a safe, enjoyable space for all.
This project showcases the difference AGL Grass can make for facilities that serve animals. Whether it’s for a shelter, doggy daycare, or your own backyard, AGL Grass provides a resilient, easy-to-maintain solution that benefits both pets and people.
