An extremely boring question about sofa throws, especially if you have a dog

[SotiredIcanttthinkstraight]

Sorry for inane question: long story but I’ve reached the point of fatigue where I can’t think straight!

My sofa covers are cream from IKEA . They wash really well and I combine those with loose dog blankets for summer and it works well.

Now autumn is coming and the rain, and muddy paws etc, I have bought some brown all-encompassing sofa throws (they are actually a nice dark taupe shade of brown, not hideous) and I want to know please …

… do you put the cream ones back on the cushions after washing? And then the brown massive throws/covers on top?

Or do you put the brown all-encompassing covers straight over everything without the cream underneath? Will marks go through to actual seat cushions etc?

I know, I know, I win a prize for most dumb question of the month! 😃😂🙈

Thanks for any pointers though!

Thank you very much Saucery I guess dogs are like us in that as natural as possible is best!

I find with muddy dogs, the darker the colours the more grubby it looks. Light colours work well with dogs (especially when washable)

That’s interesting BrightLightTonight!

Maybe my taupe throws were not a good idea 😀
