Dog Gone Smart Dirty Dog Doormat - Fast Drying Rug with Super Gripper Backing for Clean Floors - Super Absorbent and Machine Washable Mat for Muddy Paws - Mist Grey

I've been searching for an absorbent rug to put in our camper for quite a while that's not too bulky or commercial looking. This one's perfect! It lays flat and it's super absorbent and so soft. It also has a great grip on the back and doesn't walk (move) like others I've tried. It traps the dirt, wet paws, and those pesky autumn leaves that my dog drags in. It has cut down on the amount of sweeping and mopping I've had to do. Now if I could only get a matching 26x60 for the kitchen area! Hint, hint!

I first bought one of these rugs just over 2 years ago. In the winter our yard gets particularly muddy when it rains and I decided I wanted another one to increase the coverage. I really have been impressed with these rugs. They are thick, durable and absorbent. They’re also soft to stand on, a nice spot for bare feet. One of our dogs likes to sleep on them. Are they a miracle working rug? No, you still have mud or water come in, but they help a lot! They’re also easy to clean. I have washed mine countless times and I dry it in the dryer, but I will say I noticed in the packaging for the new rug that you are supposed to hang it to dry. In my picture, the dog is standing on the old rug and the new one is behind her. That old rug is still in great shape. There is some slight fading but the fibers and backing are fine. As for the non-slip backing, it works pretty well: if you’re standing above it and try to move it with your foot it doesn’t move much, but my dogs come in the house like rodeo horses out of the gate and they definitely can move the rugs. Overall, I recommend. I also recommend not having 4 dogs.

So I've only had it for a few days so I cant attest to its long term durability BUT I think it is really well made & I expect it to be long lasting seeing the excellent quality of it compared to other "chenille type rug mats". I have used a number of things, besides plain mats, at my front door trying to catch not only the wet snow, ice, mud, dirt, rocks, but also the ice melting pellets and annoying little seeds & nut pieces that get tracked in from a tree in our yard and NOTHING has worked. We do not wear shoes in the house but we might as well because these things get tracked in to the front mat and then tracked across the whole house by the dog and my son's socks! Just one dog outing & I saw a difference! No wet footprints across the floor! No ice melting pellets on my carpet! I can see how this traps everything & absorbs wetness immediately! This is a game changer for me! This might literally save my sanity!!!! It is of great quality - nice & thick & soft on bare feet. I can take off my snow boots and not feel one bit of dampness on my feet! The backing is a nice thick quality rubber backing that grips nicely - no sliding or slippage at all! Like I said it is thick, but does not get in the way of the front door - it still opens & closes just fine over it. I got the 35x26 large size (in Mist color) which is perfect for my entryway as a mat for normal weather but I definitely would like the runner for winter so the first part of my carpet is protected and there's more room for snowpants and snow boots to come off without us huddling on a little mat at the doorway so I just saw the runner (in Mist) is $20 off so I had to take advantage and order it! I normally wouldn't spend that much but after trying out this large size, it's totally worth my sanity!!! The large size is reasonably priced for sure. And because it works so wonderfully i don't think the runner is OVER-priced, but it is above what I am comfortable spending; however w/ the $20 discount and given it is twice the size of this one I will take it! I would not have been able to purchase it had it not been on sale tho. I also just purchased the shammy towel also because this will be a great combo for wiping off the dog after he runs thru 2 ft of snow each time we go outside!! Thank you for making a wonderful product- I hope it holds up for a very long time as I expect it should.UPDATED: So I ordered the runner after loving the large mat so much...for some reason I mistakenly thought the large was 30x26 but it is not...it is 35x26 so when I ordered the runner (30x60) I thought they would be the same width but that was my mistake I got myself confused. I was hoping to use the runner in the same spot as the large mat at the front door just have it come out longer for the winter weather would be helpful. But it was too narrow for my purpose so I kept the large at the front door to continue using as a mat and the runner opposite it at the very first part of my carpet where my shoe tray is and all our outdoor stuff gets dropped! So this works out just as well because I just needed something to cover that portion of my carpet so we don't have to huddle on 1 tiny mat at the door with the dog when trying to take off snow boots/shoes, snow pants, wipe the dogs paws off etc. So now we have extra room to do that and my carpet will not get ruined! I love it! I added the 3rd pic to see the large mat & runner comparison. The scooter and show tray are covering part of the runner but it does go all the way to the wall.

This is a fantastic rug. It stops a lot of mud, dirt, debris from entering your home. The downside is that it is difficult to wash. I own a Speed Queen washer (industrial) and found that the rug is so heavy when wet, it would cause my washer to produce an error code. I couldn't spin the water out. Maybe too absorbent?

Works great for my big dogs. And super cute

I wish I could carpet my entire house with this. So soft and does a wonderful job of keeping my floors clean. Our yard is all wild and not landscaped so when we adopted a very large puppy she tracked in dirt and snow. This is the best runner I have ever had and wish it came in larger sizes. Cheaper here than our local grange and well worth every penny.

I have two of these in different sizes for my Pawtootles. I keep one by his food bowl to keep him from sliding around and to grab his food mess. I keep a larger one in the area between the kitchen and dining area, where he likes to lay down to watch me cook. I’m planning to get a 3rd for the backdoor entrance. They’re soft, absorbent, easy to clean in the laundry, and dry nicely.

This really works we have at the door our 4 dogs come in and out. This really absorbs moisture and dirt from their paws. We also have a smaller one underneath the water bowl which works perfect. We order more of these again in the future, and would recommend to people who have pets.

This is a great brand, I’ve bought several of their dog mats. They’re soft and durable. Waterproof on the bottom, great for spills. Washed and dried several times, keeps softness and shape. Highly recommended.

I got the pacific blue runner, perfect size and amazing quality, much better than expected! it is so plush and the colour is absolutely gorgeous, I was hesitant to get the blue but it really adds a touch of class to the runner and looks great in the room even though I have a more somber classic colour theme in my house. I am actually buying 2 more as we speak.... What an excellent purchase! I am so happy! Also my dog has moved her favorite toys there and hangs out on it as it is so comfortable.

It works awesome! We have a 60 lb lab and we use it inside at our patio door. We did turn it around so it is more like a runner and by the time he hits the end of it (in 2-3 steps) and onto the hardwood floor there is no wet or muddy pawprints! So impressed! I am going to buy another one for inside at the front door. I have not laundered it yet so I have no idea if some of the drying issues that other reviewer have said is true - but don't really care if it is because it really does work - No more running behind the dog with paper towels and cleaners! Yay!

Haven't had it long enough yet but appears to do the job very well.

Truly anti-slip backing. Very absorbent. I have 2 and they really help to keep my house clean with multiple large dogs. Best mats of this type on the market!
