Scooter, our Maltese/Poodle mix has often helped me hose down those carpet tiles from Flor.
Dogs teach us so much...such as Oriental rugs and rover do not mix. Then, jute rugs are wonderful if you don't live with puppies who love to tromp in the mud after a rain.

Since becoming parents of these two wonderful creatures, Tall Husband and I have adjusted our concept of luxury. Luxury is anything that can be thrown in the washer or hosed down on the patio.
So, what's on your floors?
It's been a few years since my wood floors have seen any carpet or rugs on them. Two dogs and four kids and friends and family in and out in and out, make it impossible to keep any sort of carpet clean and enjoy life at the same time. Much easier to be able to sweep and occasionally mop. I do have sheepskin throw rugs in the bedroom though. I relish those, especially in the cold months.
