Can You Buy Dog Proof Window Blinds?
As a pet owner, you know how quickly a curious pup can destroy things, including blinds. Dogs love to peek through the slats to watch neighbors and traffic and paw at the cords, which can bend and break the slats. Fortunately, at NH Blinds, we offer a variety of dog-proof blinds for you to choose from. We provide window blinds from top brands, including Alta, Draper, Norman, and Pro Design, to Manchester, New Hampshire, and surrounding areas. While no window treatment is completely indestructible, you can buy dog-proof window blinds that will withstand your pet.
Dog Proof Blinds: Aluminum Blinds
Aluminum blinds are made from an alloy that bounces back into shape instead of bending or breaking, making them ideal for homes with kids and dogs. Your dog can run into them to excitedly see who’s coming up the drive, and they’ll retain their shape. They're highly durable and naturally repel dust and dirt, making them easy to maintain.
You can select from several colors, some of which have a metallic gleam, and others that do not. These sleek shades are a fabulous addition to a modern home.
We carry:
- Alta® Aluminum Blinds.
- Norman® CityLights™ Aluminum Blinds.
Dog Proof Blinds: Faux Wood Blinds
Faux wood blinds are durable, so they won't bend, bow, or break. Your dog running into them to see through them won't harm them, even at full speed. Your dog's teething on them will hurt the faux wood blinds, so if you have a puppy, you may need to find a way to make them unappetizing.
Even so, they’re an excellent option for most interior design styles and make it easy to control light. With several colors to choose from, you're likely to find options that complement your interior décor. They also have stamped-on wood grains, which add texture and visual interest.
We carry:
- Norman® SmartPrivacy® Normandy® Faux Wood Blinds.
- Norman® Ultimate™ Faux Wood Blinds.
- Alta® Faux Wood Blinds.
FAQs About Dog Proof Blinds
Q: Are there completely dog-proof blinds?
A: No window treatment is 100% indestructible, but choosing durable materials, like faux wood or aluminum, and cordless designs greatly improves longevity in a home with pets.
Q: How can I stop my dog from damaging blinds?
A: Place furniture away from windows, use cordless blinds for safety and ease, and consider shades without slats to reduce temptation. Designating "lookout" spots for your dog also helps.
Q: Are curtains better than blinds for dogs?
A: Curtains may avoid the slat issue, but they’re easier for dogs to pull down or soil. Durable blinds and shades designed for pets are usually a better long-term solution.3.
