Hi, I’m Scott — and I designed this because regular cotton towels just don’t cut it.
If you’ve ever tried to dry a soaking wet dog with a normal bath towel, you know the struggle. Instead of actually absorbing the water, it just pushes it around the coat.
This towel is different.
My MicroTech™ Performance Towel is made from high-density 400 GSM fabric — the same performance material I use in my drying robes. It grabs onto moisture instantly, pulling it out of the undercoat and cutting drying time dramatically.

This is the part you’ll love.
Clever corner hand pockets give you proper control. You can grip the towel firmly and actually dry wriggly legs, paws, and tummies — without it slipping out of your hands.
Once you use it, you won’t go back.
Backed by hundreds of 5-star reviews, it’s large enough (130cm x 77cm) to handle even the biggest, wettest dogs — yet soft enough for a puppy’s sensitive skin.

I wanted this towel to have the soft, substantial feel of a thick cotton towel, but with the faster-drying performance of modern microfibre.
The 400 GSM high-density weave gives it that balance — plush and comfortable to handle, but still highly effective at pulling moisture from a wet coat.
It absorbs quickly, stays lighter while drying and is designed with a smooth surface that won’t snag easily on paws or fur.

READ ARTICLEFrequently Asked Questions
Most regular cotton towels struggle with wet dog fur because they push water around rather than pulling it out of the coat. Microfibre works differently. The fibres are much finer and create far more surface area, allowing the towel to absorb and lift water quickly — even from dense undercoats.
That means faster drying, less mess in the house, and a much happier dog.
Start by using a highly absorbent dog towel to remove the bulk of the water from your dog’s coat. Focus on the chest, belly, legs, and tail where water tends to sit.
For dogs that are still damp after towelling, many owners then use a wearable drying coat so the remaining moisture can continue absorbing while their dog moves around comfortably.
Yes. High-quality microfibre towels are generally safe for dogs with sensitive skin. The fibres are extremely fine and smooth, which allows the towel to absorb water quickly without the rough rubbing that can sometimes occur with thicker cotton towels.
Because microfibre pulls moisture away from the coat efficiently, it also reduces the amount of time your dog stays wet — something that can help prevent irritation in dogs with sensitive skin or dense coats.
For best results, simply pat and gently squeeze the towel through the coat rather than rubbing aggressively. This keeps drying comfortable for your dog while still removing moisture quickly.
Machine wash in cold or warm water with regular detergent. Avoid fabric softener, as it can reduce the absorbency of microfibre.
Hang to dry or tumble dry on low heat to restore the fluffiness. With proper care, the towel will stay highly absorbent for years.
They actually work best together.
Use the dog towel first to remove most of the water, then put your dog into a drying coat to absorb the remaining moisture while they move around. This combination dramatically reduces wet dog smell and keeps your home much drier after beach days or baths.
Dog coats are very different from human hair. Many breeds have dense fur or undercoats that trap water close to the skin.
A purpose-built dog towel is designed to pull water out of the coat much faster, meaning less drying time and less water spread around your home.
