Quick-Dry Dog Drying Robe

The bit of dog ownership nobody warns you about: the wet one. Muddy field, rainy pavement, surprise puddle — then a soaked dog making straight for the sofa.

Wrap this microfibre robe on at the door and it does the drying for you. Soft absorbent towelling draws water out of the coat while your dog wanders about, so there's no wrestling with a bath towel and no wet-dog smell soaking into the furniture.

Why it earns its hook by the back door

• Absorbent microfibre towelling — soaks up water from the coat instead of pushing it around
• Adjustable touch-fastener belly strap and neck — stays put on a shaking dog
• Easy on, easy off — no legs to thread, no buckles to fight
• Machine washable — it's going to need it
• Works after baths, swims and paddling-pool afternoons too, not just winter walks

Sizing — please measure first

Sizing is the main reason drying robes get returned, so take thirty seconds with a tape measure before you order. Measurements are taken flat, in centimetres:

• S — 39.5 long × 35 wide
• M — 68 long × 50 wide
• L — 73 long × 53 wide
• XL — 88 long × 62 wide

See the size-chart image in the gallery for exactly where each measurement is taken. If your dog falls between two sizes, size up — a robe wants to be generous rather than tight.

Available in Green, Grey and Blue.
