Many of us love the soft feel and wide choice of fabric footstools. At the same time, dog owners often pause. Muddy paws, claws, shedding and daily wear raise real questions. Can fabric still work in a home with dogs?
Which Fabric Footstools Hide Hair and Marks Best?
Mid-tone and multi-coloured fabrics do a lot of work. Textured surfaces such as certain wool mixes or tightly woven plains also help hair sit less obviously until you vacuum.
We offer a broad selection of these practical options. Many customers with dogs choose from the easy-clean plains or patterned ranges of leather footstools for exactly this reason. The softness stays, yet the fabric works harder in daily use.
Request free fabric samples. We send up to nine so you can see the cloth in your own light and against your sofa or carpet. Feel the texture. Check how hair sits on it. Rub a sample gently to sense the density. Live with the samples for a few days. This step removes most of the guesswork.
We also source from a wide list of designer fabric suppliers. If you already have a favourite reference, tell us the name and number. We can quote for that fabric on the footstool style you want.
Send Us Your Own Fabric: What We Need to Check
Plenty of customers prefer to supply their own fabric. We are happy to work with it. Send the cloth to our Yorkshire workshop, and we will use it on your chosen footstool.
Before you post it, check a few points. The fabric needs enough width and length for the size you order. Pattern repeats affect the quantity required. We list approximate amounts on each product page based on standard widths. If the cloth is narrow or has a large pattern, contact us first so we can confirm the exact amount.
We notice the position of the footstool changes how well it lasts. Pair those simple steps with a practical fabric and the footstool keeps its looks for longer. At Footstools & More, we make every ottoman and leather footstool by hand in Yorkshire, so the frame and padding stand up to the daily mix of family life and dogs.
