I just wanna know how your grass is so green and pretty with dogs. haha. I'm jealous! We have a path that is actually about 6 inches lower then the rest of the lawn from the dogs. We have a shopping center behind our house. We have everything from grocery store workers, the people who clean the lots, to highschool kids smoking back there. My dogs have a path all along that fence from guarding it. That is their "duty" 24/7 and they love it. We recently planted jasmine and fenced it off to get the jasmine to grow. My dogs seems depressed without their "purpose". (I'm sure there will be a new path right in front of the temporary fence for the jasmine soon!)
