Our four-legged, floppy eared friends are the reason we get out of bed. They provide the cuteness needed to get through a weary day, and although they can be a lot of work to take care of, we love them to do just about anything… Just about anything besides pulling up a ton of concrete in our backyards.

A typical problem for the modern dog-lover is that so many of our backyards come without any green space for them to use to potty. Letting them out in the front yard not only means you have to watch guard so that they don’t run into traffic, it also means that you will be battling to keep your front yard looking pristine and avoiding those infamous yellow urine spots.

This DIY is a great solution for you. With handy instructions and a play-by-play photo collection, you will be simplifying you and your dog’s life by putting in a little extra grass over your backyard concrete. It can be a big project, but look through the steps to see if it is something you can do today. Soon enough, your dog will be happily and safely letting himself or herself out to go, your front yard will be looking great, and you will no longer have to scoop up poop in front of your neighbors!
