Dogs are a man's best friend and undoubtedly, they are so adorable. Many can't resist how cuddly these pets are but sometimes they too could be a little bit of handful when they start living in our homes. Among the many wreck surprises that pet owners will see in their homes are finding a broken vase, scratched off sofa, or a destroyed rug.
If you're planning to adopt a dog, try to look at these tips by Apartment Therapy so that you will be ready on what to keep off reach and what measures you can do to prevent some disasters.
1. Put Away Electronics
This is a given scenario and cords and wires are sometimes a treat to bite for the dogs. So try to conceal or keep it out from them.
"Power cords and phone chargers are like catnip to dogs. They just can't help chewing through the protective casing and making their way to the wire inside," advised by Apartment Therapy.
2. Wooden Furniture is Another Target
This one may be hard to work on to, especially if your dog chipped off a big chunk of wood in your furniture's leg. Although, this could be fixed, it may be a hassle to future pet-owners.
3. Wakes you Up
This is a sweet gesture from our pets but what they do is wake you up because they want your attention to spend time with them.
4. Broken Windows and Sliding Doors
Dogs especially when aggravated or when they get scared tends to become "monstrous" in a way which causes broken windows and doors.
5. Foul Stinky Odor
This is a given and beware for some stink that will reside in your house. Although sometimes dogs can have a good smell for a long time especially when groomed frequently.
6. Dog Hair Everywhere
Yes and surprisingly even on places that you won't expect your dog's hair. This cannot be prevented, adhesive rollers will work fine with this.
7. Everywhere is Pee Zone Areas
Dogs can pee anywhere, from rugs, sofas, to the floors, anywhere. If you can train your dog to pee outside better but sometimes they just can't help it.
