Dog Poop In-House Mess Advice

Works for Me Wednesday banner


Never EVER let your dog get locked in your bedroom, but if it should happen, here's what to do beforehand to save your sanity:





Make sure you...
  1. ...position your bed so it takes up most of the room.
  2. ...fully cover it with a bedspread.
  3. ...have at least one blanket under the bedspread.
  4. ...use both a top and flat sheet.
  5. ...use mattress cover.
  6. ...use a mattress foam pad.
  7. ...have Simple Solution.
  8. ...wash all the bedding
  9. ...spray Simple Solution on the mattress pad.
  10. ...have a hair drier in case you need it to dry your mattress pad before bed.
Because the smell WILL go through every layer imaginable. Then...
  1. ...take your dog out right after finding him.
  2. ...praise Jesus that the dog didn't step in & track it all over.
Much more simpler and cheaper than buying another carpet and carpet pad. And believe me, since bedding is machine washable, if the dog DID track it all over, it's much easier to deal with.

The last mess was in the TV room and it got three sets of shoes, on the TV room carpet, the dog bed, the couch that thankfully had a slip cover, the kitchen floor, the hallway carpet, the front door carpet, under my computer desk which is the dog's favorite place to lie, and all over the bottom of the dog's foot. That was a miserable evening of four-hour cleanup. Fortunately, today's mess was a lot quicker and easier an ordeal.

My special advice, fresh from dog poop central. Here's hoping you have a clean, tidy, and dog-poop-in-the-house-free week.
