In the pack
Two pads, not four. They arrive folded, which is what makes the photography misleading, so it is worth saying plainly.
Washing it
Machine washable, tumble dry low. Skip the fabric softener and the dryer sheets: they coat the fibres and slow down how fast the pad takes liquid.
How it is made
Four layers. A printed face soft enough to sleep on, an absorbent core, a breathable waterproof layer, and silicone dots that keep it still on hardwood, tile or carpet.
Plain grey with a wide hexagon quilt, cut long: 24 by 72 inches, for a guinea pig cage or a hamster enclosure rather than a dog. One size, one colour. It lines the cage floor in one piece, so there's no seam to dig under and no corner to bunch.
Small animals wet the same corner all day, and a disposable liner comes out once a day and goes in the bin. A washable one comes out, goes in the machine and goes back. Keep the second pad from the pack dry, swap them at the same time each day, and the cage never sits on a wet floor.
Same build as every pad in the range: a soft quilted face, an absorbent core, a breathable waterproof layer, and a pattern of anti-slip silicone dots that keeps it flat on the cage floor. Machine washable, tumble dry low. Independently certified to OEKO-TEX Standard 100.
Sold as a 2-pack, so one stays on the floor while the other's in the wash.
The problem
The pad that moves when the dog does.
A paw catches the edge and the whole thing slides. Your dog aims at where the pad was, not where it is. You're cleaning the floor anyway, and the towel comes back out.
4 layers construction
Four layers, each doing one job
Cut through, the pad is about 5 mm thick, two stacked coins. A soft printed face on top, a white absorbent core that holds the wet, a thin waterproof film that stops it reaching the floor, and a grey underside with silicone dots that keeps it put. The four are quilted into one sheet, so it washes and dries as one.
The look
It stays out, so it has to look like it belongs
A pad that lives in a hallway gets seen by everyone who visits, which is why most people hide theirs in a room nobody uses. That is the compromise this print is meant to end. When the pad reads as part of the floor, it can sit where the dog actually needs it rather than where it offends least.

How it works
One down, one in the wash
Wash
Machine washable. Skip the fabric softener and dryer sheets, they slow down how fast it absorbs over time.
Rotate
The 2-pack means one is always on the floor while the other's in the wash. No gap in coverage.
Save
Two a day, thrown out, is a cost that never stops. A washable 2-pack is built to replace that habit, not sit beside it.

What happens after you order
Ships in one to two days
Then three to seven with USPS. The tracking number goes out the moment it ships, so it works the first time you use it. Shipping details →
Thirty days to change your mind
Unused and in its packaging, and you don't have to give a reason. A used pad can't come back, and that's a hygiene limit rather than a restocking rule. Read the return policy →
If it arrives wrong, we pay
Send photos within fourteen days and choose a free replacement or a full refund. We send the prepaid label, so you never pay to return something that arrived damaged. How that works →

Will my puppy chew it?
The edges are bound, so there's no loose corner to start on. A determined chewer will still find a way.
How long does the backing last?
The anti-slip backing is the part that wears first, and heat is what finishes it, not use. Wash warm below 40C, tumble low or hang dry, skip the softener. If the backing ever starts to split, the pad is done, and that is worth knowing before you buy rather than after.
How do I wash it?
Warm, below 40C, no softener, tumble low. The reason behind each of those is in the care guide.
