We recently moved into a mobile home that has a very long narrow hallway down to our bedroom with that fake wood laminate stuff on the floors and poor Sydney cannot seem to keep her balance on it at all. In the mornings SO and I always take the silly approach to life and run down the hallway in the mornings and whenever we're in the bedroom because it slides so nicely in socks lol.
The problem is that Sydney, our long legged Catahoula cannot keep her footing on this floor. The same is also in the kitchen, so whenever she goes from stopped to start, or any quick movement, she slips and slides and if going too quickly will fall on her butt on this flooring.
Does anyone else have this problem?
I'm looking into carpet runners, but I can't imagine they won't slip around the same way, and I really hate carpet so we are looking to replace the living room carpet first chance. We hope to only be in this place for a few years while I finish grad school and hubby gets a kick ass job, but I feel so badly that Sydney can't walk down the dang hallway. Our ACD mix has never had a problem with it, but she has a much lower center of gravity and is a little bit more sure footed overall.
Not really sure what I'm looking for in replys, but I just feel like a jerk every time she slips going down the hallway.
Thanks!!
