So a friend comes over, their dog goes outside to do what dogs do outside, and then comes in and sits on the first new couch we have ever bought. Am I Mr. Overkill when I want to clean off the couch and pillows in the dogs "sitting" area. We nap on it, and have smaller kids. Am I overreacting? I just do not want my face where the dog parked its tail end.

I take it you don't have any dogs yourself. Me personally, I would not worry about it. Vacuum it maybe. If you're freaked out go buy one of those cheap steam vacuums or something similar for times like this.

I don't have any advice on cleaning it, but I don't think you are overreacting. Tail end or any other part of the dog, I wouldn't want one on my couch at all.

Maybe just spot test some Lysol spray on the couch where it can't be seen. Then if there is no fading spray the area where the dog was.
I also wouldn't be concerned. We have two dogs, they will lay on the couch with me,but I guess that is a personal thing.

I really like dogs, and it was well behaved, but, (butt?) it kinda creeps me out.
I am going the Lysol route, as well as contacting my local Zep rep. (commercial cleaning products). Not that I think I have stuff ALL over the couch, but for future reference as well. Thanks!
