I'm looking for a mat for washing my small(13 lbs.) dog's paws & legs off when muddy. I want something to prevent slippery surface. Would this work?

It fit in both small sink and regular sink. Little slippery when wet, so it should work

Ditto, surface is smooth and when wet, can be slippery. I would not recommend it for that purpose.

I don't think so. The top surface is smooth and when wet, can be slippery. I would not recommend it for that purpose.

I have a Waterhog mat from LLBean under our Drinkwell Zen, but I can tell you from my experience, no water has leaked out of it and our dog hasn't spilled any water. So I'm really not sure if a mat is necessary. But, if you are concerned about spillage, check out LLBean's waterhog. Its a great mat and we have it with our dog's name on it.

I think it would work perfect for that! I used it to keep the dogs out of a muddy area but would totally work for that! :)

Unfortunately, I know nothing about the Soggy Doggy door mat but I do know that this mat is outstanding. We have two beagles who have to run through ever puddle there is, have to dig in the weeds and dig holes in the ground, and generally just make a mess of their paws and this mat handles it all well. Not sure about the other one but I don't believe you can go wrong with this one.

It is a very thick mat, it should protect the tile with no problem. I don't think it would slip. If for some reason it did, simply purchase anti-skid floor rug pad.

It's pretty thin, but the top is crinkled, so less slippery than carpet. Your weight would push whatever touches the floor down into the mat--so it might actually be worth a try.

The mat is not non-skid. Mine stays in place okay on the floor but does move around some - especially when the black lab tries to run across it instead of sitting for a few seconds.

I think it would...I use it to cover the top of the couch to keep my dog from jumping off of it. It is a bit slick on the bottom so it can slide around some, but it's really easy to position. I suppose if I was really worried about movement of the Scat Mat I would either put something on it to keep it from sliding around (tape? Velcro?) because I'm not sure how much it would move around if on an outside surface/in the wind.

Not really. It's got a dot pattern surface, but it's still the rigid plastic, not a non-skid surface. My little dog - 14 years old with arthritis - does okay because the pads of her paws can grip the dots.

I couldn't answer that, but why not put itback there and see how much it slips by movin it around. I'd be watchful not todamage the leather from the friction of the map or the paws going into the foam, and through the mat. Why not ask you vet or local animal rights charities...of one of the big petfood and pet supply stores.

Ive used a towel before and its worked fine. I have invested in toesox which really help with the slipping. More practice and the more the mat will break in.

I too live in Seattle and keep this shammy in my car for quick dry offs after frolicking in the park. IMHO it does indeed do the trick even with our heavy rains lately. I also have one of the big mats that I keep buy the back door for wet muddy paws. It is amazing the stuff the mat collects. BTW my dog is an aussie/malamute mix so tons and tons of fur.

The mat has little suction cups on the bottom of it and it secures nicely to my smooth tub. It may not work on a textured surface depending on how textured it is. sorry i could not be more help.

I got a GrippMat from a local pet store. It has a small lip and grips to prevent movement. My cat doesn't make too much of a mess with the water is it works great with that plus we have hardwood floors to worry about.

Yes, it would work fine fir that. I'm assuming you have a large dog and a normal place mat wouldn't work. My fog is only 10 lbs but even if he pees on the edge, the urine is soaked up immediately. I too have new floors and was concerned. I'd go for it. Plus, they wash up beautifully.

It will bunch up if the dog paws it or a person drags their feet. It is perfect for what it does best, absorbing liquid! These saved me when the washer hose broke on my hardwood floors in the laundry room! Also is great for Oregon rainy season and muddy dog feet when placed by the mud room door.
