Grooming on a regular basis

All the fur—the tumbleweeds of hair that slide down the baseboards or the upholstered couch that used to be white but is now whatever color the dog is—is one of the most common pet owner complaints. Grooming on a regular basis may considerably reduce shedding. You don’t need to take your dog to a professional groomer; simply brush him a couple times a week.

This may be a lot of fun for your dog and can also help you bond. If possible, brush outside to prevent skin particles in the home, which might aggravate allergies. Bathing on a regular basis is also necessary to keep the “dog stench” at bay. In a tidy home with a dog, a clean dog is essential!

Before bringing dirty paws into the home, wipe them down

When your dog comes in from the backyard or a recent walk, provide a towel and maybe a tiny basin of water by the entrance to wash clean paws. My folks’ black lab is very excellent at throwing mud all over herself when out walking, so they have many towels on hand to clean her off after each walk.

Regularly exercise your dog

Don’t cut corners on walks; a bored dog is a destructive dog. Take your dog for walks on a regular basis (or runs, depending on the breed). While they’re hanging out around the house or outside, give them enrichment items to keep them focused on constructive enjoyment, such as not ripping the stuffing out of the pillows or ripping the bulbs out of the garden.

Scooter vs. Holiday Decorations: Guilty Consequences

Underneath your pet’s dish, lay a placemat. Preferably, a placemat that can be readily cleaned with soap and water, or a small mat or rug that can be washed once a week with a load of towels. Food and water spatter will be reduced as a result of this. While we’re on the subject, make sure your dog’s food and water bowls are made of stainless steel or nonporous silicone. Bacteria may live in porous materials, such as many plastics, and damage your pet.

As much as possible, vacuum

There’s no avoiding it. There will still be pet hair and grime in the house even if you brush your dog and wipe their feet. It is unavoidable. The more vacuuming you do, the better. We recommend that pet-owning households clean the entire house at least once a week, with high-traffic areas done more regularly. If you have numerous dogs or pets plus children, you may need to vacuum the entire house twice a week. It’ll take a lot of effort, but it’ll be well worth it.
