What’s a Dog Run?
A dog run is a fenced-off zone built just for dogs, featuring a sturdy barrier—like a fence or wall—and a comfy ground cover. Size it to your pup, but make sure there’s room to zoom around and have fun.
Why Add a Dog Run to Your Backyard?
  • Safety Zone: A secure spot for playtime.
  • Yard Savior: No more digging disasters.
  • Energy Burner: Space to keep your dog active.
  • Training Helper: Ideal for teaching good habits.
  • Stay-Put Perks: Keeps escape artists contained.
How to Pick the Perfect Dog Run
Key factors to consider with Grass!365 Scottsdale:
  • Dog Size: Bigger pups need bigger runs.
  • Yard Space: Fit it to your backyard’s layout.
  • Climate: Pick materials for your weather—Grass!365 Scottsdale’s got options.
  • Materials: Go for durability and sustainability, like their 100% 1-step recyclable turf.
  • Budget: Affordable to premium, all with industry-leading drainage.
Top Materials for Backyard Dog Runs
The ground cover sets the stage. Here’s what works:
  • Natural Grass: Soft and pretty, but it’s high-maintenance—mowing, watering, and patching wear spots. Dog pee can zap it too.
  • Artificial Grass: Grass!365 Scottsdale’s star player. Low-maintenance, tough, and pet-friendly, with industry-leading drainage at 1,000 inches per hour and 100% 1-step recyclable design. It shrugs off digging and looks real year-round.
  • Gravel: Solid drainage and durability, but it’s tough on paws and not cozy for naps.
  • Concrete: Strong and simple to clean, though hard surfaces need mats for comfort.
  • Pavers: Sleek and grippy—add soft patches to pamper paws.
  • Wood Chips/Mulch: Natural and cushy with decent drainage. Use non-toxic kinds and top off as they wear down.
How to Set Up a Permanent Dog Run
  1. Choose the Spot: Sun, shade, and no hazards like pools or streets.
  2. Measure It Out: Size it for your dog and yard.
  3. Gather Supplies: Fencing and Grass!365 Scottsdale’s turf with industry-leading drainage.
  4. Build the Fence: Set up your barrier.
  5. Add the Surface: Lay down their 100% 1-step recyclable artificial grass—boom, done!
Keeping Your Dog Run Fresh
  • Stay Tidy: Sweep or rake out messes regularly.
  • Weekly Rinse: Hose it down with mild disinfectant—Grass!365 Scottsdale’s drainage handles 1,000 inches per hour, no sweat.
  • Fix Quick: Patch fence or surface damage fast.
