Dogs & Leather Furniture 

Dogs & Leather Furniture 

Many pet owners avoid leather furniture because they feel it is a good match. However, the truth is that you can protect leather furniture just as much as you can protect other upholstery. Surprisingly, leather furniture may be the best option for your household if you have pets. This article will dive deeper into our opinion.

Leather furniture provides much durability. Couches that are only covered in top-grain leather are the most durable. Did you know that a leather sofa’s lifespan is 2-4 times the average fabric if it is well cared for? It can last up to 25 years or even more!

Another thing to consider with leather furniture is that they have puncture resistance. Leather couches are durable and thick. Many dog breeds have sharp nails, and a leather couch can withstand the opposition. If, by chance, your dog punctures the leather furniture, there are many techniques for repair. The cleanability of leather furniture should be considered as well. You usually only need mild soap mixed with water to clean leather furniture.

Leather is also a perfect solution to dog allergies as it is a hypoallergenic material. Fabric furniture can retain allergens such as dust, mold, and pet dander which can cause hay fever symptoms. Furthermore, maintaining fabric can be expensive. The strategies involved with cleaning fabric furniture can be time-consuming and costly.

As you can see, leather furniture is better than what people make it out to be regarding our pets. It may be the best option when it comes to furniture. The good news is that you can still protect your leather furniture with covers and blankets as an added precaution!
