Are you breaking down and finally buying the puppy your kids or significant other have been begging you to get? Dogs can be a wonderful addition to the family and even become fast friends with your children. Preparing your home for the puppy stage, though, can seem daunting. Not to worry! Clearwater Carpet Cleaning is here to help with professional tips and expert cleaning methods for when things get a bit messy. Read on to learn more!
Dogs are notorious for being cute, fluffy cuddle buddies. This makes them an amazing companion! Dogs have even been shown to help improve mental and emotional health in some people. But their fluffiness also means shedding. As your dog sheds on the carpet, they are releasing more than just hair and pieces of fur. They are also shedding dander, debris from outside, and possibly even particles of urine and feces. Gross!
It is important to regularly vacuum your carpets in order to remove these substances from the carpet fibers before they get ground-in and become too difficult to remove on your own. It is also beneficial to schedule regular professional cleanings with a company like Clearwater Carpet to ensure harmful materials like dust mites and bacterial growth are steamed clean from your carpet. A vacuum can only do so much.
Puppy paws are so cute! Some pet parents even like to stamp and frame their doggo's paw prints. What isn't so cute is when those paw prints get on your carpet. No matter how careful you are, at some point your pup is probably going to squeeze past you, paws caked in mud, and run across your gorgeous light carpet or rug. No need to despair! In some cases, you can allow the mud and dirt to dry out and simply vacuum up the particles. However, if it got smeared into the carpet fibers from foot traffic or from the weight of a larger dog, then you may need more aggressive cleaning measures. Call Clearwater Carpet Cleaning to help prevent stains by removing the dirt and debris that has been ground into your carpet.
New puppies can take a while to house train. When they are very little, their bladders are also very small and they don't comprehend right away that they should only use the bathroom outside. While your puppy is learning the rules and how to let you know it needs to go out, its accidents could be causing damage to your flooring.
When a pet has an accident, the urine doesn't just remain on the surface for easy cleaning. That large amount of liquid quickly soaks into the carpet, through the carpet padding, and into your subfloor. Running any carpet cleaner over the surface of your carpet won't be able to remove the urine in its entirety. As the urine dries in the padding and subfloor, it becomes more concentrated. On humid days, the salts in the concentrated urine stains become significantly more obvious. The bad smells can be overpowering.
In fact, if you have a Chihuahua or a Yorkie that has an accident twice a day for one month, the amount of urine in your carpet would be equal to the full jug in the photo below. Yuck!
Thankfully, Clearwater Carpet has the expertise to remove this toxic substance from your floors. We can take up your carpet and clean the deep layers of your padding and subfloor to remove the concentrated urine for a cleaner, healthier home!
Puppies can be quite the challenge, especially when it comes to training them to not eat your socks and to do their business outside. It can also be an incredibly rewarding experience to have such a loyal companion join your family.
When the hair, dander, mud, and accidents start to come your way, don't fret! Just call Clearwater Carpet Cleaning and we will help handle the situation and make your home a happier, healthier place to be!
