Hi, my family wants to get a puppy, but the previous residents of our house let their dogs relieve themselves inside on the wooden floors for decades. Humans can't smell it, but I bet dogs can! We're worried that the new puppy would assume that it was okay to go inside too, since it will be able to smell the ancient accidents.
We can't seal the floors, and I think that so much stinky stuff has seeped in that smell-neutralizers wouldn't do the trick.
I was wondering if we could train the pup NOT to pee where it smells a certain smell, (maybe peppermint oil?) and then we could put a little of that substance on the floors.
Any thoughts?
Thank you!
