Many, many years ago we had no indoor toilet so at night it was potties all round. My Mother diluted the contents with water 50:50 and watered the grass. Wonderfully green. So I agree with Faye. A load of water on top should do the trick.

Easier solution is to train your dog to pee, on the neighbours yard!
If your yard is fenced, then build a sand box and train the dog to do his business in the sand box provided.
Water it once a week to let the urine drain down into the soil below.
