A couple of years ago our front path was redone after some city sidewalk construction.
As it was drying, suddenly the dog steps in it, I was being careful but kind of forgot he wouldn’t know better. So he caught me off guard, and the footprint remains. I actually did something at the time, I forget what, to lessen the impact, maybe I was successful.
To make it worse, this was a redo. The city’s contractor used the wrong mix or it was to cold so the first path didn’t realky set properly, every time I shovelled snow it scraped off some of the path. So they redid it the next spring. The dog could have had his fun with the first try, and thus not leave permanent damage, but he waited for the second try.
I was worried about the cement on his paw, but it came off with the walk to the park.
