Default Seat Covers

Has anyone added seat covers to their car? I'm not really a fan of them but I would like to protect the seats from my frequent passenger, the 68lb maniac pictured below, the rears are easy I can just pop the cushions out but when it's just the 2 of us he insists on the front seat.
I'm thinking about the Wet Okole covers in all black to match the interior, anyone use them?

Beautiful dogs, huge energy levels.....had one that lived to 17 years and energy faded only in the last year.
At least Gsp's don't shed as bad as the Lab's we now own, they are totally of limits for the Porsche!!

Thanks, this is my 2nd one, They are nuts but sweet dogs, he is awsome with my 7 month old daugther and he's only a year old.
I have always let my dogs in the cars, I enjoy having the dog around and usually the car of choice to drive will be the Porsche so what the hell. Life is short! That said, I still want to protect the seats.
He put a little hole with his nail in my Boxster's seat that I had to have repaired.

Thanks Tim, you know usually I am really good about doing a search, I guess I'm a little brain dead this morning

Default Big, thick towel?

Never used seat covers in the P, not much of a fan either, though the Okole's in Tim's posts don't look too bad. Does he ride in both the 911 & 996? To preserve the look and condition of your seats, might be an idea to throw down a big beach towel for him to sit on, then just remove afterwards.

Like your doggy. I don't let my monster (also 68 lbs.) near the P. He rides in the Ridgeline exclusively!

He can ride in all my rides, the 911 I keep the back seat down with mat over the area and he will usually just stand on that with his head out the roof
Years back when I had more time I would show up at concours with the 86 911 and my old GSP in the car, the q-tip crowd were appalled! It was great.

I did the beach towel ting in the Boxster but he always seems to get the towel off the seat.. he's like Houdini with those things!

All I can say is good thing you don't have supple leather seats! Woof!
