It is an easy problem to fix as Aniline dyes can be used to restore the colour Using a quality leather protector that contains UV protection can help to slow this process down.
What is more durable semi analine leather or corrected grain leather?
Semi aniline leather is really more of a dying process. Usually a semi aniline leather has has a corrected grain, hence the use of semi aniline. What happens on a semi aniline leather is that small defects on the leather hide have been buffed or sanded and then get an embossed grain or corrected grain. In order to have color consistency, a semi aniline dye is utilized. Leathers that need large areas of correction are embossed all over and usually have a pigmented finish. A semi aniline leather is fairly high quality and needs more maintenance and care than a purely pigmented finish because part of the natural characteristics remain.

What is the best way to get rid of dog saliva of aniline leather sofa?
It is essential to use a good quality protector on aniline style leathers as this will make this sort of problem much easier to deal with. Aniline style leathers are very absorbent and once stains have been absorbed by the leather they are often impossible to remove successfully. Treating leather with a protector (such as LTT Ultra Protect) will allow the saliva to sit on the surface rather than be soaked in and then it can be cleaned off. Lazy Leather is a unique aniline cleaner which is a non surfactant and will not be soaked up by the leather. It is a great maintenance product for aniline style leathers. source: http://www.LTTleathercare.co.uk

How do you tell if your leather couch is aniline leather?
There are several tests you can do to ascertain this. Moisture test: Put a drop of water on your leather (test in a hidden area first) - don't worry water is good for leather so will not damage it. If the water soaks into the leather and goes dark you have an aniline style leather. If the water sits on the surface you have a coated leather of some sort. Some aniline style leathers will have a finish on them which will slow down the rate of absorption. Scratch Test: Most aniline leathers will scratch with your finger nail and leave a mark These two tests are part of a 5 step process used as an industry standard for testing leather.
