A dog is a very active animal and loves nature, so it would be useful to pay attention to natural materials. For example, a tablecloth can be made of cotton or linen, and the same goes for napkins.

By the way, to decorate the table, it is best to take two tablecloths of different widths. We lay the main one on the table, as usual. Beige or soft sand tones are suitable. It is advisable to choose an additional (narrower) tablecloth in the following tones - dark red, green, brown.

We lay it in the middle of the table, as if creating a contrasting area for the dishes. This design looks very impressive.
