Dogs and desert dirt don't mix well, dust tracks indoors and bare patches turn to mud the one week a year it rains hard. New River Artificial Turf builds pet turf around drainage first, because a lawn that holds urine and well-water mineral residue underneath will smell within a season no matter how nice the turf looks on top.
We size pet areas from small side-yard runs to full backyards for multi-dog households, and every one gets the same drainage-first base treatment.

How our Pet Turf Installation process works
Step 1Odor control assessment
We check drainage flow and sun exposure before picking the base depth.
Step 2Base drainage layer
A high-flow aggregate base moves liquid down and away instead of pooling under the turf.
Step 3Antimicrobial backing prep
Turf backing treated to resist bacteria is staged before placement.
Step 4Pet turf installation
Durable fiber turf is laid and secured across the run or yard area.
Step 5Odor-neutralizing infill
Infill resistant to bacteria growth is spread evenly across the surface.
Step 6Rinse and drainage test
We run water across the area to confirm it clears fast, not pools.
Materials
Materials and methods for Pet Turf Installation
Pet turf fails when the base can't move liquid fast enough. Here's what keeps it from turning into a smell problem.
Pet-friendly turf blades
Thicker fibers stand up to digging and repeated traffic better than standard lawn-grade turf.
Antimicrobial infill
Infill treated to resist bacteria growth, important where well water used for rinsing can leave mineral residue behind.
High-flow drainage base
A permeable base layer clears liquid waste fast instead of letting it sit under the turf in New River's dry heat.
Odor-control backing
Backing treated to cut down lingering odor between rinses.
Reinforced seam tape
Extra-strength tape holds up against pulling and digging from larger dogs.
Perimeter flush channels
Edge channels route liquid toward a drainage point instead of soaking the surrounding soil.

FAQs
Pet Turf Installation FAQs
How much does pet turf cost compared to regular turf?
Pet turf runs a bit higher per square foot than standard residential turf because of the drainage base and antimicrobial infill, but it holds up much better long-term with dogs.
Does pet turf actually control odor?
Odor control comes from the drainage base and infill working together, not the turf alone. A proper flush-through base is what keeps smell from building up.
Can pet turf handle large dogs or multiple dogs?
With the right fiber density and reinforced seaming. We size the base and material to the number and size of dogs using the space.
How often do I need to rinse pet turf?
A quick hose-down every week or two keeps it fresh, more often in peak summer heat if you have multiple dogs.
Will well water staining affect pet turf?
Mineral buildup from well water can leave residue over time, which is why we spec antimicrobial backing and a fast-draining base specifically for well-water properties.
Is DIY pet turf installation a bad idea?
The turf part isn't hard, but most DIY kits skip the drainage layering that actually prevents odor. That's the step worth hiring out.
