I have a 2019 Lariat FX4. Not sure about other trims, but the center console is leather covered.

I also have a miniature schnauzer (Her name is Gracie). Long story short, she LOVES to sit on the center console. It's the perfect size and position for her to fit comfortably and have a good all-around view. I'm 100% fine with this, however. I am concerned over the long run how nails/ dirt and mud (Mentioned I have the FX4, and like to use it as such ?), will wear the leather. So I'm wondering has any found a custom fit cover for the center console, preferably water proof or another option?

I went with THIS
Mainly to protect the plastic, after years of a sweaty elbow firmly planted on the center arm rest of my last truck - looked pretty gnarly.
HERE is their website for all the options. Wish they did a leather one...

That's almost exactly what I was looking for. I found the same company also makes this one (different material), that I'll probably end up going with as it's more water resistant, / would withstand dogs better. ?

EDIT: Looks to be about $10 cheaper on their website, so I'll be going that route. Thanks!

It says in description that it‘s ”soft leather”.
(for 15 bucks, I think it‘s more like a “leather-ette”. lol)
But It seems like it’ll do the job of protecting the top of the console from scuffs, scratches and comfy enough as an armrest.

I got this one from Ebay- it’s neoprene and fits well. I got it for the same reason!

I got the fleece version from Amazon...my biggest gripe about the console is the tapered front tip which has little to no padding...I placed a shaped piece of medium density foam under this cover in that area and now my elbow is comfortably supported...

Sorry to be a dick.....
We take our dogs everywhere and would never drive without them securely belted in. I would never forgive myself if they launched to the front windshield because i slammed on the brakes or they got caught between me and the steering wheel and/or an airbag deployment....
Worth thinking about.

I've always felt the same way, and have always made sure to keep her secure, in all my vehicles It never been hard to rig up a lead that attaches to her harness so she can sit/lay while making sure she doesn't go far in the those emergency maneuvers. The point of this thread was simply to get ideas on how to manage the center console to protect it as well!

My dog is latched in too but she always finds a way to get her paws on the console. Usually she rides tethered in the bed but itf there is too much stuff back there, like when we are camping, she rides in the front.

I'm glad Gracie has a caring owner.
And if any of you guys can figure how to keep my wife's elbow off the console, let me know. ?
