Painting with Animals
In Colour Worlds & Inspiration · 3 min reading time
Do you have a dog, maybe a young one? Or would you like to get a dog? Or do you share your household with a cat?
Then you are probably also thinking about how your home environment will get along with your animal roommate and asking yourself the question: Can I paint even if I have a pet? No problem with the right paint!
Non-toxic colours for your pet
The topic of cleanliness education has nothing to do with painting walls and furniture. But young dogs, unfortunately, like small children, have the characteristic of first exploring their environment with their mouths and teeth. The same is true for cats. The milk teeth of a young dog are darned sharp and pointed. So once your dog has chosen his favourite chair leg, the "varnish is off" relatively quickly.
This is not good in two ways: the chair doesn't look nice any more - and normally the ingredients of paints and varnishes don't suit the little creature at all.
Of course, your pedagogical skills are in demand now. With patience you can teach your puppy not to gnaw on furniture. Nevertheless, you should choose a colour that does not endanger your four-legged friend. In any case, it's a good idea to paint your chair and table legs with MissPompadour Paints or varnishesn. These are solvent-free and water-based. This means that your little rascal can gnaw without poisoning himself - which is good news.
With time, you will surely be able to break the gnawing habit with the help of good words, proper scolding and tempting treats. Now it's also worth cleaning up all the damage. Use MissPompadour To Fill to fill scratches and dents. Finally, give it a quick sanding and repaint in your favourite colour.
