I’m sure you know how important it is to select your flooring material carefully if you are a dog owner – you have to consider the damage your floors can sustain when the pooches dance, jump and spin with excitement, and you have to consider the damage your dog can sustain from floors that are hard and too slippery, or from claws caught in carpeting with just the wrong loop size. But then there are other considerations – as a floor owner, you have to select your dog carefully. Do you want him to blend in?

The practicality of the flooring is important, but as you can see, the aesthetics are really the thing. Not sure what floor matches your pet’s personality the best? You need a professional dog designer – I’m thinking of specializing in it, as there is obviously an unmet need out there!
