You should probaly keep them off.Maybe for a week or two or until you think it is safe.

If you want them outside you should just watch them when they are outside.Don’t forget to take care of your grass.

I had this problem with all the mud from the dogs but I installed Srint turf. Little pricey but well worth it. Check out the web site.

It will be difficult.

It would be much better if you could keep the dogs off it.

Its fine as long as they arent trampoling the seeds to death but Its best to keep them off.

Make sure you keep the seeds well watered.
They will need potassium. Potassium will strengthen the root system.
Check the ingredients on the bag. Dont use it if it has alot of nitrogen, it can burn the new roots and kill it.
Once the roots have developed after a month or 2, then use the nitrogen. Nitrogen encourages growth. Iron helps with color.

I think the turf builder has alot of potassium and low nitrogen, that’ll probly be good. Just dont over fertilize!
