Adoption

Homestudy soon and my fur babies

I have three great dogs. They love kids and are great with visitors. We have been inviting more people over and keeping my niece and nephew. They are ready for the baby! My three babies 2 Pekingese and a boxer are shedding like crazy. I bath them often and clean their bedding and everything I can do but worry that the inspector will think we are not fit. I sweep and mop every day sometimes twice.

Am I over reacting or should I be more concerned?

Any advice would be helpful

  • Thanks! That makes me feel so much better.

  • You're overreacting. SWs aren't looking for a museum quality home, they're looking for a house that's comfortable to live in. As long as you're making a reasonable effort to keep the house looking OK, you will be fine. The more important issue is that the dogs are friendly around people, especially kids.
  • I was also very, very nervous about the dogs but our SW was totally blasé about them. The tiny one is a furious barker upon a new person and she just went about her business as if it was no big deal.  We also have to sweep daily just to keep the fur under control and again, she BARELY looked at the house, certainly no white gloves!!  

    It's hard not to obsess for sure, just do your regular thing and it will be fine.
