Although we call them “man’s best friend”, anyone can tell you that dogs can often be your worst enemy, no matter how much you love them. Owning a dog comes with a lot of responsibility and, for some, just accepting the fact that they’ll do damage to your home. Never is this clearer than with your poor floors.

Many people want the benefit of having hardwood floors, but can’t enjoy them because their dogs scratch them up day after day. For some, the simple act of running over the floors can begin to tarnish them.

Fortunately, there’s engineered bamboo flooring. Not only is this option absolutely beautiful and unique from all others, but it’s also very durable. Quality bamboo flooring comes from one of the strongest forms of vegetation on the planet. So when your favorite four-legged friend passes over it, you don’t have to worry that it will show battle scars from that day forward.

While you will need to clean and maintain these floors, it’s easy and affordable. Plus, installation is a breeze and doesn’t cost much either.
