Unfortunately, we live in a condo in the city, so no back yard to banish the dogs to. Thankfully, we have hardwood floors so we were able to roll up our area rugs, which made the clean up much easier!

When Murphy (dog pictured in my avatar) first got sick, the vet thought food poisoning, but we couldn't figure out what he may have eaten that would make him that sick. Then, when Ella starting getting sick, the vet thought it must be something viral. We had been to the dog park the day before, so I think they must have picked something up from another dog.

Regardless, I hope we never have to deal with that again - with kids or dogs!
