What is the best landscape for dogs?
Concrete, brick, flagstone, pebbles and smooth rocks are all good choices. Mulch (except cocoa mulch) and small bark chips are dog friendly and won't heat up too much, though you'll have to replace them periodically. Lawns are another choice, though they may be destroyed more easily than harder materials.
How do I make my backyard dog landscape?
