(He's allowed on the sofa normally, I should have added. He just stepped in his own poo and I wanted him to be in his own bed for a bit. Of course... greys will find a way!)

We started by flipping the cushions up when we left (boy is a digger), but eventually gave in and just bought fabric/elastic cushion covers so he can enjoy the couch while we're gone.

Came here to say flipping the cushions worked for me. Except once…it was very cute though

Thank you human, my new fort will suffice.

Please bring the taxes of cheese you have collected for me to eat.

I’s amazing how such a large dog can curl up so small. Love it! He knows where his spot is. (Sorry about his stepping in poo).

We put one of our dining chairs upside down on the sofa after our girl dug a hole in the cushions 🤭

It’s a couch the greyhound owns it, silly human.

Let’s see the tin foil method next.

Instead, you barricaded him IN. Good job, mom/dad.

Get the spikes!! We bought spikes years ago and you just roll them up, lay a pillow on both sides, and you’re good!

Your dog is bound to live a restricted life and be indoors for the great majority of its life, let your dogs on your couch.

u/redafvir 21h ago

It was only temporary because he stepped in poo. 🤐

u/unlimitednights 19h ago

Hahaha, I am delighted to hear he is free to lounge as long as he is poo free.

I'd never deny him his natural habitat!
