please please please do not let your large and hairy dogs into your house.
It will cause the next owners of the home to clean the carpets twice to get up all the hair.
It will cause the next owners to seriously deodorize the carpet.
It will cause the next owners to fill a large garbage can full of dog hair picked up by their frequent vacuuming.
It will cause the next owners to take forever washing the walls and baseboards because they're basically just wiping dog hair around.
It will cause the next owners to forbid their children to come visit their new house until it's clean enough for them. (All right, I let them have short visits. But they have to keep their shoes on and then wash their hands.)
It will cause the next owners to assume the grout in the kitchen floor tile is brown, until scrubbing with a toothbrush reveals that it is actually white.
It will cause the next owners to involuntary gag several times.
To conclude: Please keep those large and hairy dogs outside, where I'm sure they will be very happy.
note: to all those dog owners, I don't mean to offend. I'm sure you love your dog. I am not a dog person and don't like to clean up after them. :) We've been in the house since Monday and still have several days of cleaning left. And then on to painting. Will we be living there by the end of the month? Who knows??
And don't even get me started on all the scratched up woodwork...
