Love Sherpa so much. He reminds me of my Blue, who passed away almost 3 years ago. I miss him so much. He was 14 1/2. Hope Sherp stays healthy for a long time. Much love Jamie.
I see that patrolling whether it be at a walk or not is very healthy for Sherpa. It's a huge yard, and it's grass he's walking on , and it's at his own pace. So it's lovely exercise for Sherpa. He's so hapoy in his large yard. Sorry for the mold issue, what a mucky muck. Can your insurance pay for the clean-up and future prevention?
Eeeeee, I’m sorry about the mold. It can be extremely toxic—when you wipe down the area I think a mix of water and bleach is recommended. AND thank you for installing AC for our good boy, Sherp. ❤
Ugh!! That is mingin'!
Shouldn't radiators be close to the floor (start close to the floor)? Just asking as I thought hot air rises; cold air falls. A radiator/floor fan should help move the heat around and between rooms.
Don't play around with mold. Get someone professional to help.
Poor Sherpie, walking to where little red should be.
I hope the mould problem doesn't cost too much to fix.
Love you so much beautiful boy 💙💙🐾🐾
Dont push furniture up against a wall. Always leave space for air to flow.
Make sure that roof isn't leaking
Sherpa looked really happy today ❤❤❤❤
Oh dear, I’m sure there will be remedy and the B&Q 😂😂. Keep it dry and move the wardrobe away from the wall for ventilation ❤❤❤❤
Mold spores are carcinogenic if you are cleaning them up you need to wear a mask and get the correct stuff for removing the spores. Don't use the same swiffer for the floor that you cleaned the mould up with. Please. You can get some good remover and destroyer from B&Q and paint with a mould stopping paint, at least you found it, but what are the foundations like in that corner.
I live in a ground floor flat, there's 4 flats and we all have damp, black mould, and the ground is sodden, but landlords don't want to know. Since moving into this flat in 2008 I've never been so ill I caught swine flu in 2009 and it left me with 5 autoimmune illnesses and 13 other disabling conditions, I've been forced into medical retirement from my job as a maths teacher and my landlord wouldn't put heating in so I now live my life from under my quilt.
So please 🙏 PLEASE 🙏 PLEASE sort out the damp ASAP.
Get soft sterile eye wipes rather than fingers. 🤗
Window Air Conditioner?
Heat up your house, 12 degrees is to cold and ventilation.
I use bleach to wipe mould off. Any furniture, bed head seem to attract mould if too close to,the wall. Best of luck, keep having a great life with Sherpa.😊
Oh dear , at least it was found. Yesterday i received through the post ( late present to myself) Sherpa in search of snow brilliant wee book
Have you heard of the weather rhyme,5: 10: 21 winter,spring summer sun. Glad Sherpa is doing well and that you are enjoying your new home.🐕🐶🐾🌭
Hi man good good 🐕 thanks 😅🤣🍦
Modern Ducts can be run thru an attic to almost every room and is the best option since it can be made by a single unit if robust enough and a if the skylights crank open they should open to at times. One way to stay cool is to use the cooler temps at nite to flush the heat out at the end of the day after the sun goes down by simple circulation. Check out the attic-'crawl space overhead since that space needs venting there as well just as much and check the outside where the foundation meets the walks etc.for standing water. Indeed if the moisture is only on the floor not from the damp on the walls the problem is lower since water can wick behind a wall as well if the roof is involved. Since the house floor is above ground level it should be possible to see what underneath it as well and where the down spouts if there are gutters is a possibility also.
I LOVE WHEN SHERPA WALKS TO WHERE THE 🚗 USUALLY IS! HE'S SUCH A GREAT PUP! Good thing you noticed that moisture in the back room! You should have the contractor who built the house repair it for free! The house is brand new and absolutely gorgeous! Please get the mold out before you or Sherpa get sick from it!
I also adore how Sherpa takes his time with a stroll around the yard before actually coming back in the house!💯☝️🐾🐕🚗💞😘🏡
Of you take that fan for the top of your wood stove & point it down the hallway it will help a little with air circulation, as will having a fan blowing in your room, at least during the day.
We live 1 mile as the crow flies from the coast here in Oregon and we put an electric dehumidifier in my hubby's shop area to help keep all his hoobies dry! 😊
It's good you found the mould early, and can get it treated. Mould is not a nice thing to deal with as when me and my family lived in a flat once a very long time ago there was mould in every room which was very bad and it made me very unwell, as I suffer with asthma and eczema. Not a good combination with mould. I hope you can get it fixed very soon. Wishing you and Sherpie all the best😊❤
I live in an old Victorian building with solid granite walls and have same problem. I find best way is to not let the home get too cold (18+) and to put dehumidifier on daily for a few hours in the room. The walls just get too cold and mould will grow on any wood near it. Could try sealing the wood too.
Just love the peace Sherpy has in his senior years. He seems so contented and happy in his new kingdom. Perfect life, for a perfect dog.😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤
Ahhhh the joys of home ownership. Well there is a great deal of … let us just say no one cared but me.
It is good you are handy.
Hugs to you and your blessed Sherpa.

I LOVE Sherpa but maybe now would be a good time for you to get another puppy. Sherpa's still active enough to train it for you.
It might be a roof leak. You've had a few good windstorms that might have compromised the roof. Also use vinegar to clean the furniture. The acid will kill the mold. Then dry it completely. Also put aluminum foil on the back of the wardrobe. Mold can't penetrate the foil; and it makes it easier to clean. Just take off the moldy foil, replace with clean foil. Hopefully the dehumidifier will help. You can reuse the water for your houseplants too.
Good you found it quickly. In Australia we have a product called damp rid, it’s a great product. You would have something similar..
It’s good you discovered it
Perhaps replacing the back glass door with a solid door you could put in a large husky dog door! Some are really good and basically air tight when closed and often they have closures you can slide in to lock the door. I would suggest the kind with hinged flaps to make it easy for him to push. Hes a smart cookie and I'm sure he could learn to use a dog door!❤
We discovered a mould problem on our outside wall behind our floor to ceiling wardrobes in our small spare room.. It was a thousand times worse than yours and we were horrified. We did end up taking off the plaster and reboarding with an insulated plasterboard and nothing so far this year. We also found some in our bedroom so we bought a dehumidifier and let that run through the night. Takes a bit of getting used to but the amount of water it traps just from the air that we breath out is amazing. No more mould in there though. Best piece of equipment we've bought for a long time. Good luck with it x
Ivy helps with mold, too. Common ivy. I had a very humid bedroom as well, 60 % humidity. Heard about the ivy, got 3 pots from the garden centre (for bedroom, living room and kitchen), and waited. Much to my surprise, humidity in the bedroom is down to 52 %, which is good (acceptable range from 40 to 60 %). So, worth a try.
My son lives in Alaska, and his Belgian Groenendale shepherd sits outside in -5° C. That's -15° F. They love the cold air these dogs. Wish I could send you a picture of his dog.
My parents house is full of black mould, ceiling where my son would sleep, covered black.
I always keep my trickle vents open, even in the middle of winter. 'Though there might be a very slight draught if it's really windy, I've only noticed this from one particularly exposed windowa, and at least the fresh air prevents condensation forming with its health (and repair) implications.
Glad you found the mold but it is disconcerting that it is in your bedroom. Because it's a bedroom, you will be in it for hours breathing that, plus some molds can cause skin problems. Don't forget to check under the dresser and under the bottom of the drawers. Putting a small ocolating fan in there during the day might help keep the air circulating too. Opening a window is great except when it's raining out or the humidity is high. Hope you get a dehumidifier soon too.
It seems there is always something going wrong with a home. I am sorry you are having dampness in the room you sleep in. Yes a dehumidifier works well. I use one occationally in my bedroom because in the summer it smells musty sometimes. I love the lush green carpet you have outside. Looks so comfy when Sherpa sleeps on it. My grass turns brown in the winter.
Jamie, I once had my entire house start to mold up and it rained HARD for about 3 weeks. So with you leaving you door open all the time and all the rain you get 🤷♀️. Sherpa can learn to bark to get in. I don’t understand why you leave the door open all the time. A dehumidifier would be great though.
it really warms to see how good and kind you are against Sherpa,your daughter and the rest of the world really! i love your videos
mildew. I had a house built by a norwegian couple back in 1941. It was a charmer and I loved it so. It also had the painted brick walls on the outside of the house. Being in the pacific NW with a lot of rain I too found mildew in corners, closets, window sills. I cleaned with bleach and learned to keep the clothing away from the walls, also furniture. It is caused by the cold coming through the walls and no air circulation from heat to dry it. Like a cold glass of water that sweats. We also mainly heated with a fireplace but did have an oil furnace that would circulate air better than these new splits that would come on if we were gone and at night if the temps dropped. If you notice it grows furthest from the heat source and air. Small fans will help in the winter with the knowledge of the problem spots and keeping an eye on them during cold weather . These homes with all the charm are worth the extra care.
I wasn't aware of that, but I'm happy you let me know. I've been bleaching my hands raw and, practically tyedying my clothing thinking I was cleaning things especially mold the best way I thought possible. Vinegar is much healthier to use easier on the environment, including my hands. Thank's again for letting me know. I'll forgo the bleach first and only use the V&B. Pearl😊
Your bedroom has three outer walls. Warm air hitting the colder exterior walls can cause the condensation. The water that condenses on the walls then runs down the wall and keeps the lower wall wet. You are right that a dehumidifier will help. It will also warm your bedroom a bit. It is hard to believe that those thick walls do not insulate better than they do, isn’t it? Is there an exhaust fan in the bathroom? You must run it during your showers and for a while afterward to exhaust the moist air. The bathroom, being next to your room may account for some of your excess moisture. You may also want to check your utility closet next to the bedroom and see if the water heater there is waking at a. I hope you can find a source of the water vapor you have that is causing your outer walls to be so moist!
Sherpa sleeping in his huge backyard. And Jamie, you moved for your Dear Sherpie. AND YOU WERE VERY RIGHT I know. I did the same for my cats.
I do believe he should have a little puppy friend to help him feel like a puppy again. Also bleach helps on mold
