First Aid for my poor lawn.

With 4 kids and 2 dogs it's never going to be pristine but since getting the pup, I have watched the brown patches increasing in size and number. I'm a bit worried that we'll get to a point where there is more brown than green so I'm on a mission to find something to help combat urine burns from where the dogs go for a wee.
In the past I've tried tomato sauce, Green um and hosing down the grass after I've seen my dog squat, all with varying degrees of success.
However, this time I'm placing my hope in Dog Rocks, which seem to have a good rate of success. These rocks are simply placed in your dog's water bowl (s) and decrease the nitrate level in your dog's urine, which supposedly stops the lawn being killed off.
Has anyone else used them?
I will report back in a month or so and let you know how it's worked for us.
