Thanks all!

I know we used to have bad 'pee spots' in the yard with the collies when I was younger with my mom. I'm not sure if it's because we have a water softener here, or just their diet or what, but don't have that here much. Also with a big yard like this they have more spots to pick to go .

We have an underground well that the sprinkler system uses so we always have nice green looking grass. Even though we desperately need rain here.

It's funny, I can bring toys outside but when they are out, they always are more excited by various logs and sticks and such. I guess new textures and smells and tastes that they don't have inside. I just love watching them enjoy themselves out there
