After a bit of researching we now give our 3 bitches a Brewers yeast tablet every day in their dinner. we actually counted the patches on the lawn when we started and within 3 months they had disappeared. the burning is from ammonia but once this breaks down into nitrogen it is actually good for the grass, hence the long 'rings' around the patches if you let it grow. giving tomato juice may not be a good idea as dogs stomachs are not able to digest fruit and veg, although i agree they will eat it given a chance! good luck
Fruit and veg are good for your dog, its in their food already ...but altering Ph is a little scary. Messing with Ph can cause problems with stomach, urinary tract, vitamin/ protein absorbtion, etc, the list goes on. So if theres even a chance that altering a dog's Ph could be bad for their health, don't risk your dogs health to just to have a nicer lawn. Instead of wasting time and effort on fixing or watering patches (or giving your dog something that alters what urine does naturally) put some effort into retraining them. The best approach is having an alternate area for them- rocks or mulch work great! If you have a male, put in a stake. It is completely worth it! NO MORE PATCHES!
My son had this problem with his dog leaving his lawn in terrible state. I found on-line pet shops selling DOG ROCKS, which are Rocks you put in the dogs drinking water, it neautralizes the water and they last in the water for about 5 weeks.
I bought them for my sons dog and now after a month the grass has made a full recovery. Most pet shops sell them and are about £5, works out £1 a week, worth every penny. They really do the job, and has no affect on the dog, I highly recommend ..!! My son is happy to have his nice green lawn again :-)
don't know if anyone has said but tomato juice in diet so I have heard,me I pour water over said puddle straight away or if on patio soapy water other than that take dog for a walk.
I think we get the message-thanks for sharing- twice-you need to catch the dog and/or trace the owner-in most areas this is an offence -though how you prove it it the tricky matter.

Answer to your question "does it work on drunk human"??
I would try brewing the DOG ROCKS in a tea pot and brew
As you would tea and drink through the course of the day.
Or if It's a case that the drunk is pee-ing on your lawn, I
Would recommend just throwing a "bucket of water" over
Him... Ha ha ha ..... Let me know how you get on .. lol
how do you stop dogs craping on lawns

The dog does not know any better.
