I have used Wet Okle seat covers with 2 90lbs labs and a 150lb Mastiff.
They held up ok, no tearing or ripping. Had them on for about 6 years in my TJ. Hair was not an issue but they are expensive but hey its a Jeep, everything is pricey. Like others said I have heard nothing but good things about the Marathon covers

Gorgeous lab, luber. How old is he?

I use the Cabellas trail gear covers, (about 30 bucks each) and I also have a fleece blanket with loops sewn on the top to cover the back seat as well. Just loop the loops over the rear headrests, and when it gets full of hair just take it off and throw it in the washer.

Yeah they're pretty expensive, but I've heard nothing but good things so far. I just got the front covers since my back seats are folded down 99% of the time. I'll post an update and some pics when I get them!

Me being the genius I am, I bought a Jeep with black interior. My GSD goes everywhere with me. The only thing that has worked for me is a blanket. Not necessarily the more fashionable accessory but it works. One strange tip is this. Get your hand damp and rub across the carpet/seats. It will drag most all the hair to one easy to vacuum pile. Strange I know. Great looking dogs guys.
