Keeping Clean With A Dog In The Home

• While sharing your home with a four-legged friend
  is sure to lower your stress levels and leave you
  healthier and happier, it might not leave you
  with a clean home.
• If you have a furry best friend at home, follow
  these tips for keeping your home clean
• Want a clean home? Keep your pets clean!
• Dogs can get grubby when theyre out on their
  daily walks, and if you let your pet back into
  the house without attempting to clean them up a
  bit, then your home will just be as dirty as they
  are in next to no time!

• If your dog is muddy, give them a quick wash and
  a towel down outside before they enter your home,
  and brush them regularly outside or in a separate
  area of your home to reduce dander and other
  debris that may be hiding in your pets fur.
• Do you need a new sofa?
• If your dog loves lounging around on your
  furniture and you havent got the heart to stop
  them, then it might be worth investing in a sofa
  that doesnt act like a hair magnet, hold on to
  undesirable odors and show every slightest mark
  and stain. Leather sofas or those made from a
  tightly woven material, are perfect.

• Buy a pet vacuum cleaner
• Vacuum cleaners with extra suction and
  high-quality filters are available on the market
  and designed specifically to pick up pet hair
  effectively and help reduce the odor associated
  with it.
• Doggy cleaning station
• Having one of these in your home is a fantastic
  way of preventing doggy dirt and smells from
  pervading your entire home. If you can set one up
  inside the entranceway to your home or in a
  separate laundry or utility room, so much the
  better, and it will need a heavy-duty mat for
  grubby paws, towels, brushes and a spray bottle
  of water.

• Wipe down toys, beds and even leashes
• Its surprising how quickly some pet items get
  dirty and smelly, but regularly washing them will
  help to cut down the grime and stench. Some items
  may be machine washable, others can be washed by
  hand and left out to dry on a sunny day.
• Use vodka and/or baking soda
• You may not know that vodka, when spritzed
  lightly over furniture and other soft surfaces,
  can greatly reduce bad odors, and baking soda is
  fantastic for neutralising pongs, too. Sprinkle
  it over rugs and carpets before vacuuming or
  leave a tub of it in the offending area to help
  absorb nasty whiffs.
