Our artificial grass is perfect for your dog run, it is safe, clean and requires minimum maintenance! The dog run areas normally is small, and I can't imagine dog owners to leave dog on dirt, or plant a small part of real grass for dog runs given the fact of water it and maintain it: You have your dogs on it after you water the real grass as when it is wet, it is muddy and messy; for such a small area, you still need to bring in your big lawn mower to cut the grass periodically: what a hassle! If you ever forgot to keep up with the grass, it will grow tall and messy making it so difficult to pick up dog's droppings. Artificial grass will eliminate all the above issues if you use it for dog run: you always have the green area for your dog, easy to clean and pick up dog's poos, and simply garden hose off when you need to really clean it. To get rid of smells, you can use vinegar or our Pet Deodorant that you can find on this link: https://www.globalsynturf.com/products/pet-odor-neutralizer

Another tip is that when you are installing your dog run with artificial grass, use our zeolite infills which can help neutralize the dog urine smells from time to time. Here is the link:

Your dog must be very happy when he starts running on the artificial grass. It's no difference with the real grass.

Yes, with a lot of consistent heavy traffic and use, the artificial grass will get flattened over time. Even though our turf are all engineered with the best resilience possible, but you simply can't overcome the law of physics. You can prevent such issues by adding more infills which will help the fibers standing up better and longer, or brushing/raking the turf periodically after use. However, most people will leave it alone as the integrity of the artificial grass is in tact and you might not want to spend much time to keep up with it, all the functions and benefits of artificial grass will not be compromised even though the fibers flattened during time....

I will take note of that for future reference. Infills, raking the artificial turf periodically and good maintenance of course. Can't wait to have a beautiful lawn.
Well, this should be understandable since everything has its ending.
Well, I guess all things are bound to be damaged over time. Artificial turfs will last longer if we take care of it or depending on how we maintain it.

It will be a very simple process:

1. Pull out the edges of the artificial grass and be aware of nails around them.

2. Roll up the turf and dispose.

3. If you can't handle the big rolls, you can always cut them into smaller pieces whatever sizes you like to fit into a trailer or garbage or dumpster.

Good to know that dispatching artificial grass is as easy as 1 2 3.
I'd prefer to use it as a recyclable material than dumping it in a landfill.
When we dispose our artificial grass, it's very easy since we only roll it and done.
When we disposed our artificial grass, we cut it into smaller pieces it'll be easier.

Absolutely not! The colors of our artificial grass are not on the surface of the fibers but "inside". When we make the yarns, we mix the color pigments along with all the resins and then extrude them out forming a string of yarn so the color is within the yarn all the way through. Not like colors painted on surfaces, artificial grass colors will not be stick to your clothes, you can surely have a peace of mind on this.

Our artificial grass lasted for 10 years and it never happened that the color of it brushed on our clothes.
My kid and dog play on my artificial grass almost every day and not a single color stuck to their clothes.
It will not brush off to your clothes and will never be. In fact, artificial turf are non-fading, so it will never happen.
This is good to know considering I'll install an artificial grass in our backyard and our kids are rough player.

You should never have the muddy problem any more if you install artificial grass properly. One of the key benefits of having artificial grass is that it is clean and not become messy or muddy, you can get on the artificial grass immediately after rain as there won't be muddy or messy as soil or real grass will get. 

You want to be sure your installation gets done correctly, to have your based properly prepared with about 2" of drain rocks and 1-2" of decomposed granite or equal compacted to provide a solid and smooth surface to lay the artificial grass, stretch the turf properly, and secure all the edges and infill it.

You will be very happy as you will never need to worry about the muddy mess any more.

As long as your installer did a great job with the installation, I think you should be good.
I did this to cover up the muddy area in our backyard. SUPERB!
Wow! That's nice.

If you are having the artificial grass on the cement porch temporarily, and your area is rather small, you can use heavy duty double sided carpet tape to adhere the turf edges. By doing so, you can easily remove the turf once done with it. 

If you are installing the artificial turf on the cement porch permanently, you should use turf glues to adhere the grass. Depending on the size of your project, you can get glues in different packages. You might just need a tube of 32 oz., and a big glue discharging gun. If your area is a big and need more glues, you can go with our 1 gallon or even 5 gallon (which I don't think you will need as there will be a lot of glues in a 5 gallon bucket). When you are using gallon bucket glues, you will need to have a trowel of 1/4" teeth. Here are the links to our glues if you need more information regarding them:

Thanks for this. Never thought of using a double sided carpet tape.

If your muddy area is too deep, you might not want to consider artificial grass. Typically we recommend to excavate about 4” of soil before putting in the sub base and laying the grass, therefore if your muddy area is deeper than that, you don’t want to have artificial turf there.

I see, then we need to put some soil on it.

Yes, our artificial grass can be moved later on. If your initial installation is permanent, you will need to first remove the nails, and simply pull out the turf from the base. There might be infills inside your already installed turf, if it is the case, you will need to flip the turf to let infills out before you start rolling the turf back up so you can move it.

I relocated mine to the backyard
We did this before when we moved and it's okay.
Great to know I can reuse my artificial grass when I move.
I was actually thinking if this is possible. Thanks for this.

The answer is yes! Without knowing what kind of wall you have, I won't be able to offer more detailed suggestions on how to. If you have wooden walls, the hanging should be very easy as you can use nails, staples to secure the artificial grass onto the wall. If you have brick or concrete walls, the installation will become more challenging, you will need to have to put anchors into the walls before hanging the grass. It will also depend on the sizes of turf that you would like to hang, the bigger the piece the more difficult it gets.

spray some paint color on it and they'll surely look fantastic on the wall
Absolutely! Artificial turf can be an accessory fantastic for wall coverings, I've seen it in some offices
It will look great too!
Just like an artificial grass panel? hmm, this is nice.

It depends on the temperature after the rain, if in a warm summer day, the artificial grass will dry up very quickly, especially when there’s some actions on it. In cold weather, it might take a bit longer for the grass to get completely dry. So it is really difficult for me to get any exact timing as the answer will be very different from various temperature conditions.

Should not take too long
It dries quickly!
It would only take an hour or two
more than an hour i guess
I hope it dries within 4 hours on a summer day.
