| Good Dog Flooring? Okay guys, so many of you know that I use a super yard pen for my dogs play area in my dining room. I don't think that the grout was ever sealed in this house and it is starting to stink like urine, no matter my 2 times a day floor washing schedule and 3 times weekly blanket/bed washing. Only one of my dogs is 100 percent potty trained.. Emma is about 85 percent trained, Lula is 50/50 hit or miss, and our new girl Kenzie did wonderfully the first few days and is now copycatting Lula. I feel like I'm cleaning hours and hours a day.. scrubbing on my hands and knees -- to make matters worse, the tile is supposed to look aged so it has rivets and dips in it where the urine will seep into. I know they need to be 100% potty trained and I'm doing my very best with it.. but they're all still puppies and despite my best efforts it isn't totally successful yet. We're putting up a fence next weekend and hopefully that will help as well. So, I'm going to home depot today and I'm basically looking for an EASILY cleanable flooring that can be cut to the size of my dogs area to go over the tile ( not installed, just placed over it). Something that is durable and easy to clean would be awesome. Thank you in advance for the help!! |

| The only thing I can think of is linoleum/vinyl.

| I agree you can buy it at Home Depot for 20.00 dollars a roll.Make sure it goes pass the area of the pen for over spills. Get a light color so you can see the accidents.I would not cut it.You may want to use it for puppy pads when they are older.

| Depending on what size you need, you could also use a vinyl shower curtain liner or vinyl table cloth.
