We also have LOADS of rugs, little ones for Katherine and Pippahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14563769395873958826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36787253.post-43639792761811658642007-11-21T06:57:00.000-05:002007-11-21T06:57:00.000-05:00Johann, we have polished parquetry - it's from the...Johann, we have polished parquetry - it's from the sixties, so very old, and as good as the day it was put down and is quite resistant to liquids. But I think maybe it's very expensive these days. The rest of the living part of the house is vinyl, which is also great for spills of every kind.<BR/>The bedrooms are carpet.<BR/>I was told that Penny might have a problem with her shoulder joint and parlancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11175843064324380048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36787253.post-81445695599170214912007-11-20T19:59:00.000-05:002007-11-20T19:59:00.000-05:00Oh, thanks, Cyn!

Wood, unfortunately, can't have standing water.. or.. errrr... standing pee or poop on it or it will stain. And with our fosters, we couldn't have that.<BR/><BR/>The tile is kinda cold, but with slippers it's fine. And we throw yoga mats down so the dogs don't slip too much.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
