It would be far harder to live with carpet of any style or quality, especially with dogs in the house. Both are old enough to be reliable about going outdoors, but they can still upchuck or have an accident. I might not hate carpets so much except for the dogs; yet they're the most important things in my life, even more than the house or anything else in it. No house is going to give me a sloppy kiss when I feel bad.
