How I finally got my Lab to stop tracking mud through the kitchen

If you have a dog and hardwood floors, you have a daily ritual: walk, mop, repeat. Most dog parents accept this as the cost of admission. We don't.

Here is the 5-second method we built our whole brand around.

Step 1: Add a splash of water

Two tablespoons. That is it. The water acts as a lubricant for the silicone bristles to do their work.

Step 2: Insert the paw, twist gently

Lower your dog's paw straight into the cup. Rotate the cup three or four times. The bristles flex around the paw, reaching between the toes where wipes can't.

Step 3: Lift, repeat

Pull the paw out clean. Move to the next paw. Total time for all four: about 25 seconds.

That is it. No bath. No wipes. No mopping the entryway. Just the time it takes you to greet your dog and you are done.
