We are getting hardwood floors throughout our main level and thanks to RH January incentive of the month we received a huge huge discount on the floors!
Score!! We maintain a shoe free zone home. However, this will be our first home with hardwood floors and I became concerned about our pet dog, Harley, ruining the floors. This is not a concern, of course, when you have carpet throughout. So I decided he, along with everyone else, will continue wearing socks and he will have to start wearing doggie slippers. He is going to be pissed, but it is going to be so much fun watching him adjust to them. LOL I plan to begin training him now on the carpet so he can get used to wearing them. Hopefully, he will have a minor adjustment to the hardwood floors when we move into our new home. CMM asked to see pictures! This is for you CMM!! This is not Harley who is a Miniature Schnauzer! I found this picture on the NET! Thanks to Sgt. Rich, we also have the option to do a special dog nail trim called dremel work and he also directed me to this site called www.softpaws.com that provide these cute sealants for their nails. Too cute!! I think they are great for female dogs; but they do come in black or clear for male dogs.
A friend of ours used the soft paws on their dog so she wouldn't scratch up the hardwood floors. She had different colors for the holidays :)
ReplyDeleteOMG, that is hysterical!! Harley would be in trouble, if he were a girl!! So I have to stick with the black and clear. I might be bold and use red for xmas!! lol I find them quite amusing! I am happy to hear that the soft paws do work!!
ReplyDeleteOMG!!! Does Harley have a say in any of this?
ReplyDeleteYou are FUNNY, Danielle!! I guess that's what you are saying about me! lol smiley face!! Right now, he is okay wearing his rain coat! LOL But he hates the hood, so after we walk him--he comes in half wet, half dry. LOL
DeleteHa ha! Cute! My dog would totally chew those off! Can't wait to see a picture of your dog wearing them!
ReplyDeleteI searched the internet once, I searched it twice, but I have not found anything quite nice! Stay tuned!
DeleteLOL... you are going to have to post a picture of your dog with the slippers!
ReplyDeleteLOL...I will post pictures soon because it's going to be hysterical! I am looking for different types to test out! Stay tuned!!
DeleteLOL, I guess great minds think alike! I considered doing the same but a friend told me as long as you clip the dog's nails you should be fine. However, I may still buy one for my dog!
ReplyDeleteLOL it's something worth trying out to see if they work and beside they are fun and cute!
DeleteThis is too funny! I thought you were joking about the slippers! It is pretty cute though!
ReplyDeleteThe dog in his slippers is hilarious! We don't have a dog right now but talked about getting one at the beginning of next summer. The dog slippers are too cute. LOL
ReplyDeleteIs it hysterical!! I get a kick out of it every time I look at the pictures. I purchased a few styles but I am finding them to be very small. So I must take them back to get the perfect fit. I am just afraid, he is gonna just chew them off. I definitely have to order the softpaws, too!
ReplyDeleteNow I have been thinking about the dog chasing a ball or someone through the house and slip sliding all over the hardwood floors! LOL
