Well Rotted Manure and Dogs

2»

  • We own an equestrian centre.   IF it's well rotted then it should look and smell absolutely no different to the very best garden / potting compost you can buy.

    I've just been getting a couple of tractor buckets of it to spread round my rhodendrons, azaleas and hydrangeas.   I can absolutely confirm that the dogs only eat and roll at the "new" end of the muck heap

    I can therefore guarantee, from extensive research, that your dogs won't be interested in it at all.

  • I mulched my border with manure from the garden centre and it did smell for a few days. Not sure how rotted it was! Personally I would dig in compost to improve the soil instead, it can be used straight away unlike manure.
