I never had a problem with dogs before, until they became permanent borders in my home. I thought it was going to be a temporary thing to have the dogs there. Then, my wife started getting carried away. I was really upset at first because I couldn’t stand the sound of the animals and the smell. The air filters were being changed weekly and they were clogged with hair and dander. When my wife told me she had sent in an application for a grant and it was approved, I was surprised because she didn’t tell me she had put in an application. She was now approved to turn our home into an animal rescue center and I was going to help. The first thing we did was take a wall out between the house and the patio so we had room for all of the animals. We built kennels in the backyard and then we placed pavers over the rest of the area. This made for a clean area for the dogs to run. We needed a place for the animals during the cold season and when it was raining. The area we had marked off originally, was soon separated from the rest of the house. We realized we had something that had to be done and couldn’t be forgotten. We had to put an HVAC system into the animal area, that would be separate from the home’s HVAC system. We had a whole home air purification system installed the home’s HVAC system and we had an air purifier into the HVAC system for the animals. So far we haven’t adopted out any of the animals, but I’m patient.
