I'm an American boy and the shoes come off. We have carpet on the ground floor and wood on the lower.
For us, we wanted to keep the carpeting as clean and nice as possible the longest. Living in the middle of the woods on a dirt road, it is a losing battle.
Toss 8 dogs into the mix and...well...we own our own Rug Doctor just to keep up.
The main reason we drop our shoes this time of the year (Winter) is with one person wearing inside...and the others not, someone WILL step in a slushy spot
