One day I photographed ducks floating in my yard! Some days I was honestly thisclose to having some sort of break down! Especially with two young dogs (2 year old and brand new puppy GSD) and a large dog that liked to try to dig under the fence. And to make matters worse, the house we rented had beige and *white* carpet! Before we moved I just gave up. I got used blankets and would keep them on the floor and then block off the other areas, so I had sort of a quarantine area for the dogs.
Thats a good idea! I might have to buy some blankets and put them in front of the doors...so the primary mud goes on them! Then keep them blocked off from the rest of the house until their feet dry off!

I so badly want to buy new living room furniture, as mine is destroyed, but my hubby won't let me, because he says it will just get ruined from the dogs and the mud!
