Do you want to keep your house super clean with dogs? The good news is besides making your dogs healthy; this will make you happier, healthier, and living in a conducive environment. Below are 6 cleaning and organization tips that will keep your dog-friendly home really feeling fresh at all times.

Set up a dog cleaning station

Setting up your dog cleaning station is very important. So, all you need to do is to find a safe place where you can set it up around your home, and go ahead to do it. You can set it up your dog cleaning station beside the dog’s room or at your laundry room. Studies have shown that dogs relax, and become happier if they are kept in a cleaning station.

Buy a quality vacuum cleaner

Find an appropriate vacuum cleaning for your dog; look for the one that can easily help banish odors and pick up pesky hairs. To glide over the surface, you will need a good brush, a quality filter, and an extra strong suction. Having a vacuum cleaner is very important, it will enable you to vacuum daily so that your house will be dust-free at all times.

Also, make sure you clean the filter as often as possible. Failing to clean the vacuum filter could result in a clog, causing the hair, dust, and debris to spread out, not suck-up the mess. For these reasons, it’s best to invest in a  high-quality vacuum cleaner for your home.

Update your sofa

If you are finding it extremely difficult to push your pooch off the couch, then this might be the best time to update your sofa. When you are updating your sofa, it would be safer to shop for materials that is tightly or leather woven. The wrong materials will do a lot of disservice such as showing up the slightest stains, holding undesirable odors, and acting like a hair magnet.

Select fabrics carefully

When you are choosing furniture, always look for materials like microfiber or leather that can easily be cleaned or wiped off. Materials like suede and tweed can trap the hair in its weave, so they aren’t recommended. Of course, pets and their habits vary, so the fabric you choose can make a big difference.

Wash bedding regularly

Fortunately, your dog’s bed is one germy area you can also control the cleanliness of. Washing your dog’s bed once a week or once every two weeks at a minimum will reduce your risk of infectious disease transmission. In between washings, remove hair with a vacuum or rubber gloves or place a sheet over the dog’s bed. Bedding and blankets can be tossed into a washing machine at a temperature of at least 140 degrees Fahrenheit using detergent and chlorine bleach.

Keep dirt outside

If your house is getting muddy because of your dogs, keep a towel near the door and use it to wipe their feet before they come inside to minimize dirt, mud, and any other goodies they may drag in. Keeping dirt outside will also safeguard your pets’ health status. Dogs don’t like to stay in dirty environments; it could make them feel unhappy, sick and aggressive. Additionally, a weekly or monthly housekeeping visit will help keep your dogs’ fur, dander, and hygiene in check.
