An add on question that I have been wondering about along with seat covers.

Do you have cloth seats or leather? Which ever one you have is getting wet an issue? I have thought neoprene seat covers on leather would be better for water resistance but I don't know how well the seat covers keep water off.

I am thinking if water got on the seat and it's leather it will be a lot less likely to absorb the moisture and cause any kind of mold/mildew issues vs. the cloth seats.

This is one of my biggest issues I am having with deciding on features for my JK Rubicon I am going to order (not sure when yet).

Marathon Seat Covers
they are Cordura, much cooler to sit on than the neoprenes (no a$$ crack sweat) and they do not hold water like the neoprenes.

I have Wet Okole seat covers. Don't know about dogs, but they have held up really well with our 2 year old son.

I've had Wet Okole's since around Jan07 bought the unlimited for the wife in Oct06. The Okole's are very comfortable, and have been a great cover all around. The only problem was our pitbull. He loves to ride, however cannot stay in one place, but rather is all over the back seat, and when the wife or I are alone he's up front but still moving around. Since I was concerned he might rip a hole, I also got a set of Covercraft Seat Savers. I've had a set in my 94XJ since 96, and they're still in great shape. I've washed them about 3 times so far. Well anyway, it was tough but I got them over the Okole's. Now I have the comfort of the Okole's and the duribility of the Seat Savers. Life is great.

I've got cloth seats and Rugged Ridge neoprene seat covers front and back. I really like'em and my wife thinks they have just enough cushion to make the seat comfortable. She hasn't complained about the rock hard head rest since I put them on. They clean pretty easily, too.

Marathon Seat Covers

They do not hold water like some of the others do. They will hold up well under your dogs claws......

I have rugged ridge neoprene full seat covers in the front, what is a back seat? I just have a great big sheepskin in the back for Tucker Dog.
