You should only scold or punish them if you catch them in the act. Punishing your dog afterwards or rubbing their nose in their mess can be very confusing for your dog. If you follow these tips you should be on your way to having a potty trained pup in 7 days!
Infrequent Fertilizing. Some lawns contain slower-growing grasses that require less frequent mowing or watering. If the clippings are removed, depriving the lawn of the nutrients provided by their breakdown, the lawn will require fertilization twice a year. Applications are recommended for August and mid-October.
Do not fertilize a newly planted lawn for about 60 days after sodding. The short root system of the grass during this period of establishment means the grass has little ability to absorb nutrients. As a result, fertilizing during this period may lead to increased nutrient leaching past the roots through the soil.
