These Seat Covers Protect Your Car's Interior from Dog Hair and Muddy Paws
Courtesy of Orvis
It's true: We love our dogs, but we don't love the wear and tear they cause in our cars. Any pet owner can relate to how a trip to the veterinarian's or a fun-filled afternoon at the dog park can often leave your car's backseat looking disheveled with dog hair, muddy paw prints, and drool. But before you spend another evening vacuuming and scrubbing your car seats back to their original state, these seat covers will protect your car's interior from all the debris that accumulates while traveling with your furry best friend.
Outfit your car's interior with one of these options, and every nook—from the window to the rear trunk—will be protected.
