My dogs have their own sofa in the kitchen. Occasionally we are allowed to sit on it
They are not allowed in the sitting room during the day, but when we go through of an evening I'm afraid we like to cuddle up with our doggies. We recently bought leather sofas for just this purpose! I do try to remember throws, but to be honest, the dogs are not too dirty by evening time (it's all fallen off on the floor or the kitchen sofa which is covered with throws and vetbed).
