   Regular Lawn Maintenance: Keeping up with regular lawn care gives your grass the best chance to stay healthy and recover from dog wee damage. Key steps include:
   
   • Water Twice a Week – Deep watering twice a week encourages strong root growth. Water early in the morning or late afternoon to reduce evaporation.
   
   • Mow Regularly – Regular mowing keeps your lawn neat and supports healthy growth. Lift height on damaged areas of lawn
   
   • Check Soil pH – Test your soil’s pH to ensure it sits between 6 and 7. Balanced pH supports nutrient absorption and boosts the effectiveness of RESCUE.
   
   
5. Existing Untreated Wee Patches: If you have older patches in your lawn where the grass and roots have already died from dog urine, you may need to combine RESCUE with other recovery methods. These could include plugging the dead areas with healthy grass from other parts of the lawn, replanting the patches, and top dressing the patch. If your dog’s continue to damage the same spot, you could also consider blocking off the damaged section of lawn to give it time to recover.
