  • Odour-resistant — never stinks

01  The differentiator

Unzipped: Dog Car Seat Towel
Zipped: Quick-Dry Dog Towel

Every other dog towel slides straight off the seat the moment your dog moves. And fixed dog seat covers? Straps, clips and a five-minute setup, which is why they never leave the car.

Every other dog towel slides off the moment your dog moves. Fixed covers need straps, clips and a five-minute setup.

Ours hooks over the headrest. Unzip the hood and it locks the towel in place through the zoomies. Zip it flat and it’s a full-size quick-dry towel for the dog, the beach or bath day.

Zipped

Hood closes flat. Dry the dog, shake out the sand and hair, done.
Strap-on covers and sewn-in hoods can’t do this. It’s the one thing we’d never leave off.

One towel, two jobs. Nobody else gives you the second one.
02  Goes everywhere

Not just for the car. The one towel your dog actually gets.

Throw it over the back seat, the boot, the couch or the crate and it stays put. Zip the pocket shut and the leads and treats stay dry, even when the dog isn’t.

to throw on. No straps, no clips, no fitting guide.
6+ uses
Car, boot, couch, beach, bath day, camping.
Nothing to measure. It hangs off the headrest instead of wrapping the seat, so one size covers the ute, the hatch and the wagon. Then it folds into the beach bag when you’re done.

03  The zip pocket

Leads and treats go in the towel. Not under a wet dog.

The zipped pocket is where the lead, poo bags and your keys live while the dog’s in the water. Zipped shut, dry, exactly where you left them.

At the beach
Lead and treats zipped away instead of buried in the sand.
22 × 16 cm
Fits a lead, poo bags, keys and a phone at once.

04  The wet dog problem

Stop the wet-dog soak reaching your seats

Throw it on before they jump in and the water, mud and smell stay on the towel. Odour-resistant fabric means it never stinks, and the hair shakes straight off.

THE BIT PEOPLE DIDN’T EXPECT

Softer than expected. Tougher than they are.

Most people buy this expecting a doggy accessory. What arrives is a genuinely good towel that happens to survive the dog — 150 × 70 cm of dense split microfibre that holds 7× its own weight and dries 4× faster than cotton.
