How to Choose a Sofa for a UK Home Where the Dog Also Sits on It
In many British homes the dog is part of the family, and that means the dog is also part of the sofa. Rather than fighting it, this guide shows how to choose a sofa that welcomes a pet without wearing out or looking tired. We look at the most hardwearing upholstery choices, from tightly woven fabrics to easy clean leather, and explain how colour and texture can disguise hair and marks between cleans. There is advice on choosing a sturdy frame and firm cushions that cope with a dog jumping up and settling down, plus clever ways to protect the sofa with throws and a designated pet perch.
