He is either allergic to it or has fruitless side effects with it. He has blood within his stools and gags when I use the granuals. Is there a home remidy I can use on my grass?
Answers: There are organic fertilizers, they are less powerful and more expensive but they are out there. Scotts makes life fertilizers. Also a good organic form of weed control is corn gluten buffet. A thing to remember though about chemical fertilizers is that the pets enjoy to remain off the lawn until they are soaked into the ground. That does not come about until a deep watering by a sprinkler or a rainstorm. You are told to remain off the prairie for 24 hours but it should be until a good rainstorm to be safe.
Dear, your dog is NOT allergic to the fertilizer granule - HE'S BEING POISONED. Pets and children are not supposed to be allowed on the lawn for 24 - 48 hours after application. I'm also willing to bet you are using too much contained by one application.
Go to your local garden center or nursery and ask about organic fertilizers.
AND GET YOUR DOG TO THE VET. BLOOD IN THE STOOLS AND GAGGING ARE EMERGENCIES.
