The sheepskin is beautiful soft thick fur.  Purchased to protect sofa fabric from occasional wet dog paws.  Looks beautiful and is so soft to lay on.  Don’t settle for fake sheepskin throw get the real thing.  I looked at other retailers before purchasing and this line looked more luxurious as to the size and fur quality. I did have an issue with the first one sent, called Wayfair customer service and they took care of it and sent a replacement.  This is a real pelt.  Love the service from wayfair and how they back their products and take care of their customers.
