What did you choose, and how's it working out? We have one or more champion-shedder German shepherd dogs who love to travel, it'd be nice to have *one* car that doesn't bear their hair "signature".

Thanks for any help!
Hello! I got a bunch of samples from Juliana at PoochStyles, she was very happy to send some, and I also have a German Shepherd that sheds like a fiend. I rubbed all the samples on her. I chose the Avocado Raffia. I think the raffia colors hide the fur best, esp. the shepherd light-colored undercoat, and the green matched my car (Ice Blue) the best. I also preferred the indoor/outdoor fabric since it is a little thicker and stiffer so wouldn't slouch as much on the side panels. It's not a plastic fabric like cheap deck furniture, but a nice thick indoor/outdoor fabric.

So far I've only used the backseat cover when I went to pick up my new cat to protect the back seat from the carrier. I have to say it fit and looked great! I will post pics when I get the cargo cover and the dogs in it!

PoochStyles does great work and Juliana is super nice!
