    I can only aspire to Julie's enthusiasm and dedication to Charlie.
    My experience is definitely to encourage different surfaces.
    I can recall being pulled like a tank along the promenade (I use that loosely - Riverside in Dundee if you have been there) for no initially apparent reason, until Lilly couldn't keep her legs crossed any longer and had to poop on the concrete paving.
    She likes a little grass to tickle her bum to be truly happy ;)

    It's a girl's prerogative to be choosy!

    Yes, yes and yes. A good plan.

    I find they naturally go for grass unless it's really soggy. Grass is naturally cleaned by the rain too, so no hosing down is needed. But it depends how much you prize your grass, because it can get scorched and brown by wee.

    Simple Solution - yes, it stops the area smelling of wee to the dog :)
