Gets mad at a dog pissing in his yard ruining his lawn, female dogs have hormones and ruin everything (weird)
I did some reading BITD about dog urine killing your grass.
IIRC, the whole "female dog hormones kill your grass" thing is a myth.
Your grass dies from dog urine because the roots get oversaturated with nitrogen from the ammonia. It creates a paradoxical halo effect where the center of the spot dies but the surrounding periphery of the dead zone actually grows greener/thicker/longer from the extra fertilizer.
The dead spots with female dogs are probably more noticeable because of the squatting concentrating the affected area.
