How good is textile with dog hair? I mean does it get stuck in there

[@TheVanTeacher]

Good question! We actually tested the wall fabrics by letting Mac lay on samples. Her fur does not stick to the fabric. It’s Marathon Tweed fabric and is very durable and easy to keep clean. However it did stick to the old seat cushions, but not the new ones. Her fur really sticks to the front floor mats though. I bought a small leaf blower and use it to quickly blow out all of her fur!
