Safe weed killer?

[heritage]

Are there any effective, dog safe weed killers to use around chain spots?

this stuff may be worth a shot, although i havent heard much about it. our dogs move so much the friction from the chain itself is the weed control. lol, check it out though..

Jmo but dead grass looks like crap .I'd tiller the weeds up and plant some nice grass around the spots..It just looks a whole lot better..But your grown so do as you please.

I agree, Bama, and I like the yard to look as nice as possible.

I use centipede and it don't grow fast and it will choke weeds out.I like the way centipede spreads and over time it just takes over.Really nice grass , depends on where you live though ..I would send off a soil sample to just in case the soil is lacking something.No use spending money on nice grass if your soil is off.

One of the main reasons to remove vegetation around the dogs is to minimize habitat for fleas, ticks, spiders, and so forth. I remove the dog, and spray Roundup/Surflan once or twice per year on the perimeter of each area, and then let it dry before returning the dog. Many dogmen have salted their areas for critters and weeds, but don't do this if you have trees nearby.

I use a product called Eraser and follow the same steps as TFX. The Eraser is much more effective than Roundup in my experience.
I also apply it to my fence lines and around trees and structures, weeds and grass are gone for about a year after the second application or so. When you have a large property it sure cuts down on the mowing and weed eating.

SB it takes me 3 hrs a week to weed eat...I am familiar with eraser I use it often on other parts of my property but I don't use it around my dogs or on my main lawn...Good stuff though , it does work.
