I have leather sofas in my den and in my library. The dogs know they can go on these pieces and nap or cuddle but never chewed and they never invaded my living room pieces that were not leather. Of course when we had company the guests sometimes had to move over since they preferred the end so they could pillow their heads on the arm!!! They were always polite about getting their way.
