Can I hear from any Wheaton Terrier owners out there - Does this product work well for you? I have too figure out a way to get through these mats!

I don't know if will work in your dog but didn't do much for my maltipoo. The product the stuff work better for my dog.

I bought this today to use on my Wheaten, he has thick fluffy hair. Worked great! Light fragrance, just smells clean... Matts brush and comb out as the fur drys. Had a couple of spots around his muzzle that needed a little extra, but it worked! We'll see how he looks in a week or so!

We have a shih tzu and it works really well on her. The smell bothered me so we put it on first and then bathed her. It still works that way and you can spray it on them dry and then comb thru it. You will still have to cut out knots but it sure makes life easier. Hope this helped.

You need to turn mat off. It works very effectively for cats. No experience with dogs.

this helped, but didn't completely solve the problem. My dog quickly figured out when the mat was there equals zap. We tried 'setting her up' and she never took the bait. She is a basset hound, but can get up there somehow and does all the time. She has now taken to licking the dishes when I don't get to them right away.We had SOME luck with the Pet Agree (it's a wireless remote that does high pitch noise) and we could be out of the room and push it. Worked for a few weeks and now she doesn't care. Good luck!

So far, I have just used these mats for my cookies and they look like brand new still. I have had similar experiences with other mats and just threw those out.

I haven't had that problem, nor has my daughter who uses them. If I were having that issue, I think I would perhaps think about lowering the oven temperature and then, if that didn't work, I'd consider altering the time. One or the other of these should address the problem...but I would find a way to keep using the mats...I LOVE the easy clean up!

I have used this product on my dog who has very fine hair that tends to mat around his feet and legs and it works very well. If the mat is too thick however, I do have to cut some off instead. Nevertheless, I think it is a good product and would work in helping to prevent matting also.

We also have some hardwood, and neither of our dogs have ever had any issues with traction or sliding. It really is a great product. Hope this is helpful & happy walking!Maybe Joe is applying too much if he's experiencing slippage, not positive, just a thought.

They recommend removing them. For whatever reason, I did not last year, but this year I am to clean them well. Even leaving them on, they worked marvelously. And with a 90+ pound greyhound, I so appreciate them keeping the steps cleared through that bad winter here.

I have the same issue with the Kikkerland owl mat. Don't know how to get it to stick. :(

Just a quick note - I have this Electrolux, hard wood floors, and a dog. I also have the Dyson "animal". I am STILL looking for a solution as neither of these do the job in spite of the expense and hype! If anyone out there has found a real solution - please share!

Brian, I've tried soaking the pads in warm soapy water to loosen some of the dirt before I wash them in cold water. I think the pads say "do not use bleach". I finally got so frustrated that I ordered new pads because they seem to be impossible to clean after a couple of uses. If you hear from anyone else, I'd be interested in their results.Thanks,Stephanie Kentala

Danno, I had the same problem with the motor while grinding hard red winter wheat and finally finished by hand - good exercise that! I then did a pound or so of old fashioned oats and found that it handled the work without problems. My next trial will be using white wheat grain. I'll probably do that in the next week or so.

Christopher: I did not get the Whale mat, I got the Owl -- HOWEVER, I believe the company is the same. I have washed mine in machine. Living in Florida our mats tend toward slimey in a very short time. I wash on a delicate cycle and I hang to dry. It does wonderfully. I love this for my grandchildren...and for me....enjoy

We have one beagle who doesn't really play on them, but we haven't kept him off of them. He walks on them and lays on them often. The mats have a texture to the top anyway, so I think you wouldn't notice scratches too much. It would be easy to spot clean each mat when it got a mess on it too. I say it's worth a try.

I have two mats - both still in new condition EXCEPT that both are raised up around all edges. I don't remember ever even having a warranty info. Has anyone contacted the company and heard back from them yet .

I've had that happen too. What I've done with my mats (which are not "the mat") is just smear a very thin layer of shortening to the mat. I make my own fondant and this has always worked. Don't know why it wouldn't work for The Mat too.

WhitneyRead more reviews about power mats. I cannot remember why but i did not end up buying one because of poor quality. Think about it. Does anyone you know own one? Be thorough Whitney :)
