The Soggy Doggy Doormat is made from millions of textured, ultra-fine strands woven together, so the surface area of this doormat is much greater than meets the eye. It absorbs more water and dirt than a typical doormat, dries faster, and remains bacteria and odor-free too. The microfiber chenille "noodles" are so soft and snuggly, dogs enjoy sleeping on these doormats too. They work beautifully as crate-liners and travel beds too. Perfect for the back door, back of the car, the couch, the crate --anywhere a wet dog goes, the Soggy Doggy Doormat can go too. Machine wash and dry.
