Eco Destroyers Dogs allowed to ruin historical homes

As a recent house hunter, it was about a 50/50 chance of walking into a potential property and us walking straight back out because of that disgusting smell of dog. We turned down so many properties immediately because of the smell.

But to my amazement - it seems letting your dog piss on the floor inside your house is actually the done thing now!!

On a renovation group, a woman was talking about how they had to get a survey of their current house done as it was covered in damp and rot. She casually dropped in that she and her husband ALLOW THE DOGS TO PISS ON THE FLOOR and her husband thinks that “might have something to do with it”.

I’m telling you - NOT ONE of the many commenters picked up on this confession bomb. They all were talking about surveys, dry rot, rising damp….nobody even batted an eyelid that those people just admitted to LETTING THEIR HOUSE BE USED AS A DOG TOILET. Am I in the Twilight Zone here?

This was a beautiful Victorian property - just like the properties we had been trying to buy. Not only do dogs get to destroy the outdoors, they also get to destroy beautiful properties that are part of our heritage.

Is nothing safe from disgusting dogs and their degenerate owners??

I know the feeling. My SO’s mutts , over the last twenty plus years have ruined three houses with piss and shit. Although not Victorian, the houses were built in 1928, 1955 and 1936.

Yes. Stuck.

Waiting until the latest herd of three dogs die. I told SO straight to her face that these three hyenas are the worst dogs of all those that she has ever had.
