Paw washing 101; a storage bin with warm water in it your dog can step into from outside right in the door with a large beach towel on the other end. They step in, you swish their legs a bit and they step out onto the beach towel to walk off the excess water and voila - clean house floors!
Rocky snores very loudly 😅, so in a normal night, he sleeps in an enclosed area outside our master bedroom. In a stormy night, he sleeps inside the bedroom in a semi-enclosed area. Rocky doesn't like his folds being cleaned either, but he knows he will get a treat if he cooperates. He is very food motivated 😆😆😆.
Can Rocky swim? My bulldog sunk like a lead balloon but loved water and I wouldn't have a pool just for peace of mind or at least not one that wasn't fenced.
Because we are surrounded by lakes, Rocky took swimming lessons as survival skill training. But we keep him away from our pool and are always with him when he is in the backyard. He also has a life jacket, but he does not like water, so he stays away from pool too. Fence is a good idea. 👍
