Yes, dogs can be allergic to artificial grass, although it’s relatively uncommon. Reactions typically stem from the chemicals used in manufacturing, poor-quality infill, or bacterial build-up due to improper cleaning. Symptoms can include:
- Excessive licking or chewing paws
- Skin redness or rashes
- Sneezing or watery eyes
- Unusual behavior after contact with turf
If you notice any of these signs, switching to hypoallergenic artificial turf for dogs could offer relief and peace of mind.
