Default pets in the S?

Hey, im trying to think of solutions for putting my dog in the S. Im worried about my seats getting scratched and dirty.
Heres what i came up with so far, not sure of what direction i want to go:
Buy a seat from a junk yard and let him trash it
Buy wet okole seat covers and let him trash them
Buy a cheap seat cover from kragen and put it on before the dog gets in and replace them as needed
Buy another car

any other things you guys can think of or things that you do? my wife takes the jeep to work most of the time. we are thinking of getting an old used jeep just for taking the dog around. probably something for about $5k, but spending 5k for the dog to have is own car seems a little dumb to me, but also seems like my favorite option.

That's a dog?






j/k

My dog doesn't go in my S, although at times I wish he would. Honestly, I'm too scared he'd rip my interior a part. When he goes in the back of my wife's Jetta, he drools all over the place and I'm afraid he'd rip the leather in my S with his paws. He's pretty much limited to the back (hatch) of my Subaru.
Old pics, but you get the idea.

I will say pick up some cheap cover and put towel under there as well.

My dog is big(100lbs lab mixed), my s2000 is too small for her.

Best solution I can think of other than going to the junkyard is perhaps removing the seat completely and just buy a cheap set of mats (perhaps from Wal-mart or some other cheap automotive store) and lay it on the floor.

trim the nails and get a seat cover.
and in that seat cover stack some towles so the leather wont get messed in any way.
did it to my sisters dog cause it was shitting everywhere

Ive done it before with my dog. He weighs about 50 lbs so he isnt the biggest dog out there but hes not the smallest either. I just put some towels on the seat. And watch the windows if your dog likes to lean out your windows the paint might get scratched. Id say just get a seat cover and you should be ok.

I use a towel and tuck it in around the edges of seat. Works fine for my dog. She's about 40lbs.
