Our greyhound loves it, so that's a good sign. It's the softest and fullest rug I've owned and it was a great price! We added a rug pad under it to give more cushion, but we bought it before even getting this rug, so we may not have even needed it. I prepared too much, it seems. Would buy this rug again if it wasn't so matchy matchy to have two of the same rug in my house. The colors are exactly as appears in the picture!
