Unraveling...

Here’s another common 'repair need' we see at our rug shop here in San Diego…

Behold, another victim in the age-old struggle between puppies and hooked rugs!

One tug in the right place will start the rug unraveling. Even though dogs tend to have brief attention spans by nature, it doesn’t take too long before substantial damage can be done. Thankfully, it usually looks worse than it actually is. The repair itself is pretty straightforward.

Who could stay mad at that face?

If the loose wool is sent in with the rug, this is ideal. It then becomes a matter of properly reattaching the wool. However, if the wool is missing (say, in the puppy's tummy!), then we will try and match the wool as close as possible, from the vast collection we have on hand.

Unfortunately, I cannot offer any sage advice for preventing this sort of damage, aside from keeping your rugs and pets apart (hardly practical). This is just one of those occasional “pet accidents” you’ll have to endure as part of the choice you made to combine your love for pets with your love for rugs.

Good as new!

We’ll be here to help, when it’s needed!

If you live outside the San Diego area, you can ship these rugs to us for repair, if you’d like, or you can drop us a quick email at rugcarecentral@gmail.com and we’ll try to locate a reputable rug repair facility in your area.
