- Machine washable, tumble dry low
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.
Clay brown with cream bones and paws. Built for warm-toned rooms, terracotta and tiled floors, where a cool grey pad reads as the odd one out.
Terracotta, warm tile and honey-coloured wood all push a cool grey pad forward, so it becomes the one wrong object in the room. Clay shares the same base note as those floors. Put it where the sun lands and it holds the colour instead of fighting it.
Same build as every pad in the range: a soft printed face, an absorbent core, a breathable waterproof layer, and a pattern of anti-slip silicone dots that keeps it put on hardwood, tile or carpet. Machine washable, tumble dry low. Good for 20 to 30 uses between washes. 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 artwork shown is in-house placeholder art, not product photography. It gets replaced once this print is shot.
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
Scroll to take it apart. The top layer stays soft enough to sleep on, the two under it move moisture down and stop it going through, and the bottom one keeps the whole thing from sliding.
Four layers, stacked. The top one stays soft enough to sleep on, the two under it move moisture down and stop it going through, and the bottom one keeps the whole thing from sliding.
Soft and Breathable Fabric
The printed face. Soft enough that dogs lie on it between uses, not just stand on it.
A print you chooseAbsorbent Core
Takes the moisture the top layer passes down and holds it, so nothing sits on the surface.
20 to 30 uses between washesBreathable Waterproofing Layer
Stops what the core is holding from reaching the floor, while still letting the pad dry.
Tumble dry low, below 40CAnti-Slip Silicone Dots
Keeps it put on hardwood, tile, or carpet, even with a puppy turning circles on it.

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.

Before you decide
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 detailsThirty 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 policyIf 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.

Read the piece
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?
Longer than you'd expect, unless it meets a hot dryer. Heat and bleach are what finish it, not use.
How do I wash it?
Warm, below 40C, no softener, tumble low. The reason behind each of those is in the care guide.
