It has been said that humans love dogs but eat cows. It seems that one of our client's dogs wanted to find out why recently and so it took a big chunk out of its master's leather sofa. The owner said to me, "We feed the dog well, so I don't know why it did this!" Who knows what is behind canine reasoning? All I know is that after the crime has been committed, the dog is generally smart enough to know it is in trouble and will endeavour to find a place to "hide." (Sorry, I just couldn't resist slipping a pun in there.)
Needless to say, our client contacted their insurance company, who instructed us to carry out the repair work. The client also approved additional remedial work as the adjacent seat cushions were very worn and needed replacing. The final result is illustrated below. The seat panels are new leather recoloured to match the original chocolate brown, and all adjacent wear areas including armrests and inside seat backs were refinished to ensure a consistent look. The result is a revitalised showroom finish with years of life adding to its value. The owner was absolutely thrilled with my work and very pleased to have the sofa back in time to watch the All Blacks vs South Africa rugby match on the weekend!
