Parents with sheddy dogs, do you guys allow babies to crawl on the floors?

Pets

Im a new parent, my LO is 6months old and is commando crawling. We also have a golden who sheds like crazy. I’m a bit clean freak, pre-baby I used to vaccum house twice, once manually with dyson and once with robo vaccum. Now, I niether have the time or energy or the mental bandwidth to remember vaccuming. I have robo vaccum on auto mode that vaccums at night, but with a golden roaming, it doesnt feel like its enough.

My LO is usually in his play pen. But I think he’s getting tired of it, he wants to crawl outside but Im so worried about the fur, the dust, everything. Might be a silly question and I maybe overthinking (like my husband pointed out) but any tips or how you guys with dogs manage the house?

Thanks!
