Leather furniture with pets and kids?

I've fallen in love with a leather sofa, but we have kids and a dog and I've heard mixed things about leather's durability.

Anyone had any experience with leather furniture with kids and dogs?

In my life time I've had around 7 living room sets. All were destroyed or looked like s..t in no time due to kids. I decided to buy a leather sofa and leather love seat. I love it. I have had it for 4 years so far, a hell of alot longer that my other ones lasted and it still looks great. If there is a spill, I just wash it with a little soap and water and dry it thouriughly and its fine. I would never get a furniture made out of materail again. I say, go for it. ANd as far as a dog....my daughter bought a leather one and its the only piece of furniture that the dog doesn't WANT to lie on.
