today my hosue smells like shit.... dog piss. so i never have ANY friends over! its not fair!

and the hard wood floor is cracking... does anyone know how much it would be to get a new hard wood floor for about 100' 100' room? for a nice smooth wood?

&& if you dont, do you know any REALLY good clraning products? like i know 409, and that shit, but do you know a expensive one that acually goes on wood and works?

I think that you should send your dog to doggy obedient school and teach it to piss and shit outside!!!! I know everyone probably gave you that advice but it will work!!!!!!

Go to the local pet store and ask. They'll know what works best.

Try an orange oil cleaner for the wood. It has a nice smell and works nicely.

To train poockie, try buying puppy house training pads, and put them in an acceptable place for the dog to go. A litter box was a nice suggestion. The pads have a faint scent that seems to attract the dog to that spot.

On top of what Draak said, you should probably consider training the dog to NOT piss and shit in the house. Replacing a floor is going to be expensive enough, there's no point in having to do it again in 7 years or less.

If the dog always goes in one room, you may be able to get it to go inside of a kitty litter box... it may sound weird, but I know quite a few people who do it.

As far as how much a new floor would cost... that I haven't the slightest. I would suggest calling and getting some estimates from contractors.

For cleaning wood you should use something like Murphy's Oil Soap (or something similar). Regular cleaning products are going to strip the wood of it's natural oils resulting in the hard wood cracking.

The smell is probably, at this point, ingrained into the wood of the floor. Since the floor is ruined anyway, you might want to try a good washing with something like pinesol or white vinegar. Sure your house will smell like the cleaning product, but some might find that more pleasing.
