Sheep–A Beast's Tale

Ever since early Homo sapiens stopped scavenging and rooting around for their food and started developing more consistent methods to provide for their various needs, sheep have played a vital role in human progress.

Our modern sheep are descended from wild flocks from mountain ranges in Turkey and Iran, where they were domesticated around 10,000 years ago. They were used not just for food, but also for warm clothing, which allowed people to migrate deeper and deeper into the cold climates of Northern Europe and Asia.

Since those early herding days, sheep have been a pillar of economic growth for thousands of years, and their impact is proven by the fact that sheep and shepherding are used symbolically by almost every world religion. They're even a major player in the Chinese zodiac. Today, the finest sheep reside in the picturesque hillsides of Australia and New Zealand.

Keeping your sheepskin seat covers in pristine condition is easy if you follow these basic care tips. First of all, you will want to occasionally brush your sheepskin seat covers with a wire pet brush. This prevents the wool fibers from matting together, and keeps the fur fluffy.

When you are vacuuming out the interior of your vehicle, it is perfectly OK to run the nozzle over your seat covers to pick up any accumulated dirt or debris.

If you happen to spill something onto the sheepskin, spot clean the area with a bit of warm soapy water as soon as possible. Sop up as much excess water as possible, then let them air dry.

For serious stains or odor removal, you can always take your sheepskin seat covers to a reputable furrier or a quality dry cleaner with the ability to work safely on fur. If you heed this basic advice, your sheepskin seat covers will reward you with years of clean, cushy service.[AutoAnything]
