Best couches for dog hair
Microfiber or leather? Or something else? I feel like leather would be easily cleaned but also afraid my dog's nail would go through it easily. What's your recommendation?

Best couches for dog hair
We have leather (cheapo "leather" no less - from Ikea - we do not buy good quality b/c of the dog). In terms of dog hair - it's great. Could not be easier to clean.
Our dog is constantly on it and her nails have never punctured or scratched it. She is fairly small though - 30 lbs.
I feel like the hair would stick to microfiber - but I've never tried it, so can't say for sure.

Best couches for dog hair
My friend has a great sectional from pottery barn with a few different slip covers. She has young kids and huge hairy dogs and they always look awesome bc she washes and changes the slip covers often.
I have microfiber and it is constantly covered I water stains thanks to my kids sippy cups. I can't stand it.

Re: Best couches for dog hair
I have had microfiber and leather- I have two big dogs.
Neither really have issues with the dog hair sticking, which is great. The microfiber has a lot of drool stains from them. And my dogs aren't THAT drooly. The leather had puncture marks and scratches from their nails. I just can't win no matter what!  I'm planning on getting the surefit slip covers for our couches and then just take them off when company is over. They're pricey but my mom has them for her couches and they look fantastic.

Re: Best couches for dog hair
leather...we have microfiber chairs (which I hate, they do get dirty, and attracts my dog's hair).

Leather. I finally got leather after years of micro fiber, and couch covers, blankets and leather is amazing, just wipe it off and vacuum the floor.

Best couches for dog hair
we have a poly something blend couch and it's way better than microfiber for cleaning stains (we use dish soap and water) and dog hair (we wipe it with a wet cloth or vaccum)
