Will common "lime" spread out in the lawn hurt a dog? I am using it to combat mosquito infestation.....thanks!

Answer 1

Here is a link to the safer company lawn care site. They list your question and say to keep your pets off WHILE you are applying lime, but once it's down, you can let them back.
For some reason, the links to the questions don't work. Scroll down - they are at the bottom of the page.

Let me tell you about my dog and lime. She is a 10 year old DNA tested twice pure white american akita with medical problem and allergies up the wazoo. When she stands or sniffs around a lawn. Or when these so called gardner s throw a pile of lime in one place and more on the sidewalk then the grass.
Kaya starts to sneeze and turn beat red in a matter of hours. I am here looking for a solution to taking the lyme off her paws after a walk. I came upon this thread.

3 weeks ago they started laying the lime in my area. She has lost 2 layers of fur, then she gets diarrhea. She has been Dx with colitis and food allergies since I got her at 4 months old. Anyway she is now on Steroids has of yesterday. (Prednisone 20mg), (Cefpodoxime 200mg) Then (MiconaHex+Triz.) Baths every 2 weeks, this is the first time I am bathing her so much. I also give Regular Claritin 10mg. twice a day if needed. This is the worst she has been. She also has trouble on Ice melt, but not to the point of lime.

I only wish I had a dog that could deal with the environment. Trust me I have had her tested and Allergy wise I know one of the things is the lime. She was exposed to it in a controlled environment, and showed the signs after 15min and started getting real bad within 2 hrs.
I use Apple cider vinegar mixed with hydrogen peroxide and water in the winter on her feet after a walk. I am trying to find out if I shoud use just plain water or the same solution for the lime? I am trying to see if there is a chemical reaction that might burn her paws, if the lime mixes with the solution I make up.

I see... a haunted house with tickets being sold... a place or event I wouldn't even bother with. It's a gimmick, fur ball. A money maker. You don't think some people will use God, his word or anything else they can to make a dollar? If you "buy" into it, that's a conscious choice you make. Not everyone rushes off to that place. "Scaremare"... such a nice name for it. Speaks of God right off the bat. Don't you think? Okay... aggravated with all the junk and think people need to stop stereotyping all the same. You have quite a bandwagon of followers on this question. God on a Harley Joyride Heaven in High Gear Three books you might want to read that show a much better picture of how I see God to be.

No the lime won't hurt him, it's only crushed rock, in might even help keep the fleas down on him, which is a good thing I assume,as for the lime, as long as he is not eating it he should be fine, if he is eating, make sure he gets lots of water to flush it out of his system.

I always wondered how Bedding Barn stays in business. It's nearby where I live, and been there for over 30 years. It's in a horrible location, and there are plenty of other places to shop. Larger stores, bigger and better names, and even better small businesses that sell furniture in the area. But Bedding Barn has persisted as an entity seemingly without end. Who the hell buys crap at Bedding Barn?!? The evangelical haunted house is the Bedding Barn of haunted houses. I'm surprised they haven't had to deal with "we want candy" riots.

Answer 8

Are you talking the Lyme that comes in a bag. This is a chemical that will change the ph of your yard. I've never heard of using it for mosquitoes. I do know that I used it in my horse pen when the horse was having foot problems. The shoer told me that it was ok. Don't know about dogs though. Check with your vet.

Answer 9

A dog should be trained on how to eat, walk with you, not to bark, potty training and sleep on its place etc. You can teach anything to your puppy, dogs get trained easily with some good instructions. If you want some good training tips visit https://tinyurl.im/LCVrC

If properly trained, they should also understand whistle and gesture equivalents for all the relevant commands, e.g. short whistle or finger raised sit, long whistle or flat hand lay down, and so on.

It's important that they also get gestures and whistles as voice may not be sufficient over long distances and under certain circumstances.

Answer 10

lime can irritate the pads of their feet. and if your dog licks his/her feet a nasty upset stomach is sure to happen...not life threatening toxic but very unpleasant.
i use calicitic lime to balance the ph in my lawn because of the dog urine...about monthly in the spring and summer...
spread the lme early in the day and wet the lawn down lots...don't let the dog(s) on it until it is completely dry.
