I received my FreshPatch 5 days ago and it looked pretty bad when it arrived, but now after ony 5 days it's all brown and will probably only last a few more days. I previously had an artificial grass system for my dog. The one with the sprinkler system in it. My dog was getting hesitant to use it so I ordered the Fresh Patch. But when it came she didn't want to use it and instead used the artificial grass that I had laid on the deck next to FP. I don't know why she didn't like it, but it looks nasty to me and I won't be re-ordering. We'll stick to the artificial grass.
