There is no reason you cannot have a clean house with dogs. I have 7 and clean all the time. I mop alot , this is a great form of excerise!
I have 7 happy dogs that are welcome to play with their toys and there are beds everywhere. If company is coming over it takes about 1 hour to clean up and put the dogs home ( master bathroom a big 8x10).
I would never put anything above their happiness. My little 10 month old Kayla got a turd stuck on her butt for the first time yesterday and freaked out ran to me to fix it, a butt bath did the trick... BUT a few times my older dogs cleaned their butts on the carpet!
Oh well so we shampoo more than most...
They are so worth it.....
