I've lived in Florida for over 30 years with tile everywhere but the bedrooms.
Never have I ever had to scrub the grout and we've always had dogs.

I can't imagine what would be going on in a house that the grout would be so dirty.
Even with dogs, we've never had a problem where the grout was discolored had to be scrubbed.
