There is dead grass in all of his "pee" spots. Is it his diet (Eagle Pack Holistic Large and Giant Breed Puppy). Is there a supplement that helps?
Tobey is killing the back yard!

You really don't want to mess with the dogs chemistry. The cure is toflush the pee spots with water when they do it. OR set up a spot where the urine won't harm it and train the dog to pee there.
Not what you wanted to hear, but its pretty close to the only options you have.

I agree -- NO FOOD SUPPLEMENTS 
; it's NOT the food.
We keep a jug of water by the door and I pour it over the spot wherever Puff pees on the front lawn.

That's what I thought too. Willy's urine doesn't kill my grass, only Libby's.

I have two girls and a boy, and the boy kills the grass around the tree where he commonly goes to the bathroom. The girls do not. I water my grass daily, about a 1/2" of water, keeps the grass healthy enough to not allow weeds to germinate.
I also overseed in the spring and fall.
If you look at my signature, you can see patches in the lawn, I have just reseeded, but these are traffic spots, not urine burns.

I thought it was my dogs killing the grass too until I was scooping up dog poop and discovered rabbit turds all around and over in the brown spots!!! SMURFIN RABBITS!!! My yard looks horrible. Anyone know how to get rid of rabbits?

Have 3 labs and they could give a crap about the rabbits. 12 ga, size 8 shot, but neighbors might complain.

Yep, for me only water has worked. Misha leaves spots on the grass and homer around the trees and walls. Besides, water will keep the yard from smelling foul and the grass green!

There are a lot of "supplements" and sprays that are out on the market but I haven't heard anything good about them.
Like Ed said, the only way to get rid of them is to literally follow the dog around and dump a bunch of water where he/she peed. Or, you could put down some mulch/rocks/etc and train the dog to pee/poop there.
