I'm looking for effective weed killers that will eliminate all types of weeds in my yard but won't harm my dog. I often leave my dog outside while I'm away, so I want to make sure whatever I use is safe for pets. What options do I have that won't cause any harm to my dog?

A popular homemade solution is a mixture of white vinegar, salt, and a bit of dish soap. Just look up the right ratios online as it can really do the job without harming your pets once it dries.
I just bought this product called Spruce from Amazon. It claims to be pet-safe and I’m excited to try it out soon!
Another option some people use is boiling water for small areas. It's cheap and definitely safe for your dog. I've heard vinegar works too, but it can take a bit longer.
If you're looking for a natural approach, you could try covering the area with cardboard or landscaping fabric. It’s a low-cost way to smother the weeds. This method has worked well for me in starting my garden beds, and my yard looks great!

Totally agree, I've used this method and it's super effective!
