They are Rick. Except for the kitchen, porch 1st floor bathroom, and the entire second floor the whole first floor still has the original hardwood flooring. Even the steps are hardwood.

Not my call on it Rick. And I dont think the dogs would like it too much. They already dont like the floors in the dining roomand kitchen because they dont get any traction.

Bigger dogs don't like them for that very reason, they will tear up hardwoods.

That wasn't too bad. Did you finish the big computer job? I know you were waiting for parts.

Shaun, it is fun watching a back end go off from under them as they round a corner too fast on hardwood floors. You should see it in my house when the pack gets going

Neil I see it alot in my house. After I check to make sure they didnt hurt themselves ( especially our one Dal Lucy. She had a broken leg when she was a pup) I just cant help but laugh a little.

We had a small dog that knew better than to run in the house. Slid into the wall many times before she learned.
