when annie was comming into our lounge to sit on the leather couches i made sure that 1 was covered in a cotton sheet and she got used to the idea that she was only allowed on the couch that had the sheet on,it took a while to teach her this bit the couches remained scratch free,it was just the arms that i really bothered about as the seating part if it did get scratched always repaired itself with the heat of someone sitting on it ,does that make sense??,unfortunatly with her reaction to wool she is not allowed in the lounge now but does have a very large leather ottomon to sleep on thats covered in a sheet,karen

[MENTION=900]KMARINO[/MENTION] - I just bought a leather couch of Craigslist a couple weeks ago. It's like new, actually - but the reason I went that way is 1) after carting grandma around to 8 furniture stores, we couldn't find one we both liked and 2) leather gets BETTER with age! I'd have preferred to buy one that was more "broke in" - but the price was right and the color was spot on what I wanted. [MENTION=2071]Davidh[/MENTION] is right. Leather for bullies is the ONLY way to go!

We gave away our leather over a year ago... long story. But, I suggest you take Super Vegas in for a nail trim TODAY!!! :D

[MENTION=1034]BruceP[/MENTION], his nails were done last week, nice and short and rounded!! There is the alternative....I could "teach" Vegas he is not allowed on the furniture no more......

[MENTION=1034]BruceP[/MENTION], I don't have to teach Joe that, he has figured that out the hard way!! Had to laugh when we were at the new Vet's Friday, the vet ask me if Vegas was trained, I said "Who him or us??" , he laughed and said "Yea this breed pretty much does what it wants, WHEN it wants"!! I did give Vegas some props and said he CAN beg for my food VERY well!!!

I have an Italian leather sofa too, no scratches at all, after quite a few years. Just wipe it down with warm water n washing up liquid.
