neither do I...on so many different levels. I knwo it's morally wrong, but I have 2 dogs, we're planning a baby in the next couple of years and we're messy. We need leather!
then why don't you get a darker colored pleather couch? i wouldn't get a white one if i have animals and am planning a child- but i like to keep my things extremely neat, too.
I have really bad allergies. Im super messy and besides the whole moral thing, I just think they are really ugly. But definitely easier to keep looking neat and clean.
