We use it every day
Wee wee legs
Frank, our Irish Setter, is very much your typical Irish Setter. I mean, why stand still and cock your leg to wee when you can walk and wee all over your legs? It turns out, dealing with "wee wee legs", especially with longer coated breeds, is really quite common. Wipes were our go to while others have said their dogs have their own flannels. Both are ineffective and result in in wee being brought in to the house, on furniture and in our case, embarrassingly, the sofa!
Thankfully, as we're extremely house proud, this is all a thing of the past. Now, a quick warm rinse of Frank's legs and quick towel dry and all the nasties stay outside and off the new sofa. No bacteria, no smell, no embarrassment.

The "i've wee'd here so i'll scratch here"
Both our dogs do this and I've seen many many other dogs do this too. Wee, then scratch the grass to spread their scent. It's a natural behaviour in dogs. This wasn't a big issue while we were out on a walk but the mud and clumps of grass that stick to claws and in between pads ended up on our floors, carpets, rugs and dog beds. Even after "washing" paws with a wet cloth, the mud still got in the house. Not any more. Rensa now washes all that mud, dirt and grass off paws literally within seconds. Now every time we go for a walk, only clean paws come inside.

The poo remnants
Frank's beautiful chestnut coat does sometimes collect a little bit of poo as he's squatting with the wind in his ears. Ever wiped a dogs bum? I have! It's a horrible thing, albeit necessary, to do. Thankfully, a quick warm rinse with the Rensa at the end of the walk means a clean coat always comes into the house. No more do we suffer with that "What's THAT on the carpet?" dread and panic.

The Shoulder roll
We live in the High Peak, the most beautiful part of the world. We're extremely lucky to share our habitat with some beautiful animals. Our dogs love being around these animals so much that they want to roll in their poo. One minute Missy and Frank would be running free, having a great time and then BAM. One will stop, sniff and shoulder roll. The dread would creep in.. what's that?.. Fox?.. Sheep?...Cow? who knows but what we did know is that it was going to result in a full bath when we returned home. Wipes won't fix that. Thankfully, Rensa does! Everything is at hand to completely bath the dogs and get them squeaky clean and fresh smelling without any of us having to enter the house. The most amazing thing about this, is that it takes minutes. No bathroom prep, no fighting dogs in the bath and wrecking the bathroom, no wet and dirty towels everywhere, no muddy footprints through the house or nasties up the wall and no complete bathroom clean afterwards. It's an absolute god send and only takes minutes.

The visitor dread
Maybe the biggest of all fears.. the unexpected visit from guests and the house and dog not being presentable.
We love our house, it's perfect. We work very very hard to keep it clean and presentable, which is why we were mortified if guests arrived unexpectedly and we knew they would be walking in to a house that was not perfect. Dirty floors, dog smell, dirty dogs, general chaos. I cannot tell you how removing all that chaos BEFORE entering the house, eliminates that unexpected visitor dread. I now know every time someone knocks on our door they can be invited into a clean, tidy, nice smelling, perfect house with clean, happy, odour free dogs and it hasn't taken an entire weekend to achieve this because every time we go for a walk, whatever the state of the dogs, Rensa fixes it quickly, easily and perfect every single time. Outside!
