A little over a year ago our family of seven climbed into a family of eight with the addition of our gold Lab, Sam. Like most dog owners, we are convinced that Sam is the smartest, friendliest, most well behaved dog there ever was. We are also convinced that when he goes too long without a proper tub, he’s among the smelliest!
While we don’t have some renovation programs in the works, I am dreaming of having an area for Sam to bleach that is all his own. One which doesn’t call me lifting his heavy frame in precisely the same bathtub our children bathe in. See how homeowners and designers have added showering space due to their pups in laundry rooms, from mudrooms as well as outside.
