    HEX70 XL Dog resistant . Not Dog proof.

    A few months ago my dad and i made a hammock out of HEX70 XL fabric from RipstopBytheRoll we went with hex70 because everything i read said that hex was dog proof. I around a bit and everyone that had used it said it could absolutely handle years of abuse from my 75# lab and I, well today I found out that while hex70 is certainly the most dog resistant fabric for hammocks I’ve found it’s not dog proof. So my question is what else Is out there that’ll hold up a little better? The hex material lasted longer than any other fabric I’ve used but I need even more cut resistance. Any recommendations are appreciated, thanks in advance.

    I’m guessing that the canvas doesn’t breath well.
