No but yo should. a dog will eat anything or chew anything, its best to have a tidy house so you know that your dog will not eat something or chew something it shouldn't.

They don't care, no. However, make sure there is nothing that could be harmful to them if they eat it. This includes everything from paperclips to electrical cords. Some dogs will eat everything in their path, some dogs will leave almost everything alone. Keep things out of your dog's reach until you know what their habits are going to be. If you get a puppy, everything is going to be fair game to get chewed on when it starts teething. When my dog was teething, he preferred the wall over any of his chew toys.

No, but you should if it means the dog won't be safe.

No, they don't care. But you do need to make sure that anything the dog can get to, he can't eat and wont hurt him.

Dogs do they're business on the street so I think they will be fine with it, My house is always a tip with toys and chews for my 5 month old puppy.

They don't care at all, just make sure you don't have anything lying around that they shouldn't eat.

Maybe the dont, but you should..if you care for his health and your home.. he will start chewing stuff and eating things he shouldn't be eating..and that could cause serious health problems..clean up and try to remove small items that a dog can reach..sit on the floor and look around you... kinda like making your home safe for a baby..

No...when I get home from work, my Sheltie has pushed all of the pillows from the couch to the floor and everyone of her toys are pulled out of her toy box. I think she likes it cluttered....lol

I guess they don't but you should cause you don't know if your dog could get to anything dangerous.

No, they don't care but your dog could get hurt easily. It could bite your stuff, maybe wires and possibly get electricuted. It could tear some of your stuff. You should care whether or not your house is clean.
