I’m sick and it is still snowing so I didn’t do the whole patio, but did scoop two paths for the dogs to reach some grass. Can’t do one because they will assume the other side would have been better and just hold it in.

Will need to redo them in a few hours when the dogs are ready to go again.

    If you have a tarp handy, that’ll save some labor. Or a sheet you don’t need.

      Thanks for this. I’ve been using a shovel and rake to clear a bit for the pup. She doesn’t love it even with a little snow. So I just bought a tarp and steaks and next snow she will be living the high life.

      Dull mens club is changing my life for the better. First it got me eating delicious oranges. Now this. Incredible.

      I might be on the verge of becoming interesting which I think makes me unqualified for this community. But then without the amazing support you all provide I’m sure I’ll become dull again.

        I have a weiner dog who will only pee on grass. Tarp goes down, snow falls, tarp comes off, happy dog. He also has his own couch. He’s got me trained rather well.

      I’ve had luck with that on cars before having a garage made it not necessary, but the distance to the grass is long enough that it ends up being just as much work as shoveling.
