My dog run, jumps and slides across my bed. His nails no matter how short rip fabric except real denim. Is this fabric strong like real denim?

NO. I don't recommend it, actually. I have to wash mine all the time because it shows everything. It already Has a couple of small holes in it. I guess you get what you pay for. A little ,ore spent, maybe it would have lasted longer. This winter i am going to look for one of those "bed In a bag" deals.

Janice. .I have a dog and a cat and so far, they have not damaged the fabric. My small aussie sometimes struggles to get on the bed but doesn't rip the fabric. So far so good

No! His nails will rip this comforter. Too bad he gets on the bed because this is a very nice comforter :)

We have two dogs... And we don't let them on the furniture, but of course, they do continue to try - and we haven't had any problems with the fabric ripping. I also have a chaise that has the same fabric on it and no problem with that either. Our dogs are large - so their claws are big and blunt, but not sharp.

My dog uses the bed regularly and tends to use his paws to settle in and dig at it a bit to get it "just right". It hasn't ripped yet several months in. Not sure how sharp your dog's nails are though, but I would guess your pretty safe.

I'm not sure what the Pawz are made from, but I believe some other reviews mention them tearing, so you might want to look at that. Plus, you need to consider how long your dog's nails are--will they either push through the Pawz, be felt through the Pawz, or will it be uncomfortable for your dog? I really can't answer these questions but you might find some answers in other reviews, or buy a set and experiment. Hope all goes well for you at Day Care!

Hi. I'm sorry--I bought it for a gift and didn't really see it for long. I don't think it is as heavy as real denim--more like a chambray. It was very fun without being too "cutesy" and nice for the price.

I would buy something else. The fabric is good, as is the color. It absolutely does not stay on the furniture. Looks great tucked in but the minute my medium size dog jumps on it, off it comes. I would have returned it but my dog chewed off the tag since it went on the floor immediately and she, I guess, thought it was a toy. Honestly, it is a complete waste of money.

So far the faux fur has held up surprisingly well. No tears anywhere yet. They climb up and down it all the time. Hope this helps!

I would probably choose a less expensive fabric than this but I don't see why it wouldn't work. Depends if your dog is a chewer.

I've not had any difficulty with denim. Just today, I sewed Suede, the machine handled it without any problem. The button holing is super easy. They come out really nice. The largest I've done is a little over an inch. I've still not used all 30 of its stitch capability. I recently made photography backgrounds for my wife's photo business. Different weights of fabric were used. No problems on any of them.

Our does eats other softer beds and is a moderate scratcher. The fabric seems durable in that it is stretched in order to assemble the bed (difficult assembly due to the fabric top needing to be stretched to fit the frame). We have found the bed to be durable and I feel confident that the bed would prove to be durable for a scratcher. In fact, I have not found any other fabric more durable than this. I hope this helps and good luck.

I think so. I have 4 Boxers and they all have had to use this. Unless he or she is an acrobat. It would be extremely difficult for them to do and usually dogs give up after a minuet or two. The best part of it for us was it keeps them from bumping into everything, and they can eat and drink without having to remove it. I'm not sure which brand would be best. Our first one was the best, but it was a gift. When it finally gave out I had a couple of others, not as good. Open it and look at the fabric and baffle to see if they look good. One time the seams of the fabric broke when the vet was applying it. I had to make an emergency trip to the pet store. Good luck I think so. I have 4 Boxers and they all have had to use this.

The one that I bought in the store in Petsmart was a cotton like fabric, you could wash it easy. If you have a store in your area u would check them out cause you can open the package in the store and see if it's what you want. Just didn't for right on my dog. The price was just about the same as it was online and I didn't have to pay shipping.

Hi Linda - I purchased this item for my 132lb rocky-lab mix - he does he same thing- it's a strong, cotton/nylon blend (?). Held up all summer - going into year #2. I hope that helps.

If your dogs are "diggers" on the bedspread I wouldn't recommend this bedspread. If they jump on the bed and just lay down and sleep it's fine.There is stitching on this design, if an occasional dog toenail caught a thread if could be pulled back from the underside of the bedspread and lookfine on the right side that shows on your bed. Again, not a good choice for roughhousing dogs.

We feel pretty confident thinking it would work with denim as the fabric for jeans or overall snaps. May depend on fabric and size of snap you'd be installing and what item of clothing. We're not sure it would work for small/tiny snaps although there may be other adapters for different sized snaps. Hope this helps. I know now that we have the tool I'd certainly be willing to try it versus tossing the item of clothing;) good luck!

I doubt a digger's nails would get caught on the furry fabric. It is very soft and fur-like; however, it may not be tough enough to withstand a lot of enthusiastic digging.

My dirty wet dogs are back there on it all the time. I've had mine since April and it is a nice microfiber type fabric. I need to take mine out and shake it but I believe that will be fine - when I brush it off it is fine. Certainly seems durable enough - I know when it arrived the material was a nice surprise as I had doubts after reading some of the reviews but it was money well spent. If you have dogs I think you'll be very pleased!
