apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

How is it designed specifically for dog, you ask? Well, according to K9Grass website, it's durable and drainable, cleanable, and it has an antimicrobial treatment that prevents odor. Apparently it can withstand the cruel treatment dogs can give grass (i.e., digging and peeing, etc.). And, of course, it doesn't need to be watered or mowed.

We can tell you -- because we bent down and ran our hands through it -- that it does feel shockingly similar to real grass (although not as soft). The blades are made from "textured wide blade Polyethelene and Nylon monofilament with Alphasan." And the City of San Jose even used K9Grass in a new 14,000 sq-foot dog park.

What do you think? Would you ever consider something like this for your yard?
