I use turfbuilder or equavalent product. I have no idea what type of grass. I assume a normal mix of fescue, bluegrass, and perenial rye that is typical for a northern climate.Could be another turf damaging insect or a fungus. Many factors could be causing the issues. It has been a very difficult summer for cool season grass where I live in south jersey and lots of damaged turf. Any issues will be exaggerated when the lawn is u see intense stress. Do you have it treated professionally?
I haven't seen flying insects and definitely no female dogs.Do you see moth-like insects flying up from the ground? Could be sod webworms.

I have lots of dead spots in my front yard. I took a shovel and lifted several sections of sod looking for grubs but I didn't find any. It's been a hit dry summer but I've watered and don't think that's the problem. Suggestions?

"'This is a hybrid … of bluegrass, Kentucky bluegrass, featherbed bent and northern California sensemilia (sic),' Spangler said. 'The amazing stuff about this, is that you can play 36 holes on it in the afternoon, take it home and just get stoned to the bejeezus-belt that night on the stuff.'"what kind of grass?
This. I had some circular spots on my lawn, and use a fungicide (hooks to your hose) once and month and haven't had the issue in over a year.FUNGUS!!!!!!
