How do you stop a house smelling of dogs?!

[Nospringflower]

Hi, am slightly paranoid that our house sometimes has a doggy smell and wondering what tips there are for preventing this. I know our car stinks :-(.
We have wooden floors and she is in a crate. I'm wondering about using fleece blankets so that I can just wash them everyday.
Any other tips great fully received!

Move

sell the Dog

build a cesspit

Bathe dog and wash bedding often. Dry-towel dog after each walk.

Damp mop floors everyday and use a nice-smelling floor cleaner for thorough cleans (I like Method Touch Wood - lovely almond smell)

Fleece blankets for bedding are pretty useful. They wash easily and dry quickly. I stick ArseDog's in the machine every other day (though I'm pretty surey house still smells doggy).

I keep a candle burning continually during the day - tends to take the stronger smelling ones to really help unfortunately!

If you invite only doggy people over to your house and only have doggy friends, unless you never clean then they won't notice.

Failing that, wash beddiong/floors regularly and open windows as much a spossible. Yankee candles for emergencies/if people are coming over. 1001 also do a 'no vac' carpet freshener which you spray on after hoovering and a pet version of it, which is quite good for a quite spruce up too. However, unless you keep the dog smells to a mimimum, your house will just smell of dog + Yankee candles/carpet freshener.

I'd go for the first option personally, much easier.

Wooden floors here, and I air the house out constantly. There is always a window open. I hoover daily, and mop every other day. The hound is bathed every 6 weeks or so, but he is hosed down after every walk and thoroughly towel dried. I groom him weekly, too, and that seems to help massively. I found that certain foods made him more stinky, so he's now on a good quality kibble. If his breath gets a bit on the nose, I give him a carrot to chew. In the evenings, we burn candles and I always have a plug in air freshener on the go in the hall way so you don't walk straight in and get hit in the face by a wall of stinky mutt. My dog has anal gland issues, which make him smell like satan's armpit. I have resigned myself to manually evacuating them for him once a week. We don't make eye contact and never refer to it. All of these precautions mean that he generally smells neutral now, most of the time.

Tuffies dog beds with cheap Ikea fleece blanket on top. The tuffies beds can be hosed down to wash....not that I have needed to yet. I think that because they are waterproof, they don't hold the dog smell.

However my house smells much better when DH is away.......

I open the windows as many as I can each day. Have all hard flooring. Hoover daily - if I don't you can smell him straight away. My dog doesn't do baths and I have not the energy, the time, or the unbreakable skin to lump six stone of snarling pointiness into a bath so he gets foam bathed regularly from a canny little spray thing and brushed regularly. Dry him with a towel when he comes in from a walk. He hates mud luckily and avoids it like the plague but loves the beach so replace mud with salty grit in our house.

Have just come in and am laughing at responses - especially the one about anal glands and not mentioning it .
Not sure what Yankee candles are but was thinking candles might be good idea.
We never wash dog so should maybe start ....
Don't think it helps that shoe cupboard (open plan) is just as you come in the door
