“Woofie”….Mans best friend…!
DID YOU KNOW that man’s best friend can actually become your worst nightmare?
That’s right. He’s cuddly, cute and you love him, but sometimes he has a problem with “accidents” and pretty soon, you start to notice, what I call the…well, ummm…”DOGGIE ODOR”
Besides the obvious occasional accident from Woofie, his hair can also be an issue. Once he shakes a bit off, it goes into the carpet and furniture…! Big issue, especially if Woofie’s hair does not match your decor…!!
Then you have the issue of “I want in. I want out. I want in.” You know what I mean… Woofie is always on the move and the constant going outside and back in….. brings in all of that Florida Sand…!
What can you do about all this?
- Clean messes up quickly. Once you discover an “accident,” it’s important to grab a few paper towels and blot up the mess before it sinks down into the padding of the carpet. A good enzyme deodorizer like you might get from the vet helps with lingering odors, but of course it’s best to have a professional carpet cleaner come over to handle these odor challenges. Carpet powders may sound like a great idea, but after the first perfume smell leaves, this powder actually holds on to the offensive odor (even baking soda)….no matter how great your vacuum cleaner, powders almost always are not totally removed and set up a repeating cycle that isn’t good for your carpet and actually makes a bad problem worse.
- A “hairy” situation can be tamed by brushing your dog often. Loose hair that’s about to go into the carpet and furniture needbe vacuumed as soon as possible or at least on a regular schedule….Loose hair can be easily be pulled from Woofie with a good grooming brush. And guess what? He probably likes the attention….!
- While you may not have the time to wipeWoofie’s wet, muddy paws each and every time he wants back inside, it is a good idea to place mats inside and outside the door. When Woofie wants back inside, let him beg a little bit on the outside mat, because some of that dirt is definitely going to come off…..!
Do all of this and man’s best friend is going to be a dream to live with, not a nightmare…
