My boyfriend and I have 7 dogs- he 6 large breeds and myself a young papillion. The labs, boarder collie, and golden retriever are amazing animals. However, there is ALWAYS excessive hair in the home and the couch smells and is worn!
Is there any type of sofa material that is better made for such "punishment?"
