Soggy Doggy Super Shammy Giveaway

Bath time.  A dog’s worst nightmare.  It’s not exactly a dog owner’s dream either.

Ikebath

Look at that sad, dirty face. 

Bath time got a little more fun around the casa de Décor and the Dog.  The fine folks over at Soggy Doggy sent us a  Soggy Doggy Super Shammy to test out!

127

This shammy is 5x more absorbent than a regular cotton towel.  It is made from millions of textured, ultra-fine strands of microfiber chenille that are woven together.  The increased surface area of this shammy allows it to dry faster than cotton towels and it remains bacteria and odor-free.

The verdict?

soggydoggy

The hand pockets were handy for drying the face and underbelly.  The shammy is super absorbent.  Ike has two coats of fur, a top wire coat and an undercoat.  The undercoat is tough to dry.  The shammy honestly did a great job of soaking up water that a towel normally doesn’t touch.  He snuggled up next to me after his bath and my arm wasn’t damp like it normally is after bath time.  Super Shammy for the win!

Besides bath time, we think this towel is super handy to keep by the backdoor for after walk cleanups! We tested it out last night after a gloomy/wet walk.  A little scrubbing and his paws were clean and dry.  My wood floors could stay clean for another night.  That right there won me over.

Did someone say walk?

Be sure to check out the Soggy Doggy Shop where you can pick out your own Super Shammy, Doormat (especially handy for those winter months ahead), or Slopmat (for those messy eaters!).

Soggy Doggy was kind enough to offer up a Super Shammy to one lucky reader (enter below)!  And because not everyone can win, use the code DECOR20 for 20% off of your purchase!

  1. What a great giveaway. I'd recently heard of the Soggy Doggy - good to hear it lives up to the reviews. I have 2 dogs...1 who doesn't mind the bath at all and 1 who isn't that hip about it! :)

  2. Penelope doesn't really like bath time - mostly she doesn't like water on her face. She does seem to like being clean after bath time, so we don't feel too bad dunking her in the tub!

    ReplyDelete
  3. Lexi doesn't mind bathtime at all...which is good when she is a great dane. I can't imagine trying to hold down a great dane that doesn't want a bath! That being said, a better drying device would be great!

  4. Foster loves bath time... I mean LOVES it. Cap'n on the other hand HATES the actual bath, but loves how he feels after. My doggies could totally use this little gadget!

    ReplyDelete
  5. My dogs are pretty much convinced that the bathroom is their own personal swimming pool and they will jump in it whenever they get the chance... even if it is currently occupied. At my house you muct always make sure hte bathroom door is firmly latched before taking a shower.

    ReplyDelete
  6. My dogs hate bath time- they all put on the most pathetic faces when they see the towels/shampoo. Speaking of, it's about time for a bath- I wonder how that's going to work considering I'm 8+ months pregnant! We could definitely use one of these shammy's- drying 3 dogs is at least a 3 towel job and they still stay wet for a good 1/2 a day!!

    ReplyDelete
  7. I have cats. They hate it! But my in-laws have a dog and this would be great for them as they live out on a farm. I'm going to have to keep it in mind for a Christmas present.

    ReplyDelete
  8. My dog haaaates bathtime, and especially the drying-off part...but LOVES rolling in mud outdoors. Not a good combo. Maybe this would help speed up the process for us!! :)

    ReplyDelete
  9. My dog hates getting a bath at home, so we send him to the groomer. I'm assuming he's well-behaved there since I haven't heard anythign from the groomer (or they're just better at giving dog baths than we are). But it would be nice to be able to bathe him at home to save some $$.

    ReplyDelete
  10. I've never heard of this, but this would be a great product to try during bath time, which the dog really dislikes.

    ReplyDelete
  11. I wonder how it works on fine curly-haired fellas like our Lhasa-Poo? I usually go through about 3 towels before he tears through the house, rolling on every rug/carpet he can find in protest...
    What an excellent giveaway, Michelle -- thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  12. Now you are talking.....I keep a towel at our back door from this point on and wipe her paws. This product sounds perfect.

    ReplyDelete
  13. This would be a lifesaver at my house! Meaning the lives of three crazy dogs.

    ReplyDelete
  14. We have two dogs, both have collie in them, so lots and lots of hair

    ReplyDelete
  15. My Red Heeler doesn't mind the bath at all, but he always looks just stricken about it in the process.

    ReplyDelete
  16. This is great! I have two labs that HATE bath time and one of them will lay in the floor and shiver like I'm about to kill her. Also, labs take forever to dry out so this product would be great.

    ReplyDelete
  17. We have a Golden. Talk about a wet, sopping, mess of dripping, thick fur. He loves a bath. We hate it. The Soggy Doggy shammy holds the promise of changing our opinion. :)

    ReplyDelete
  18. My dog hates(!) getting a bath and takes for-ev-er to dry. Who knew a dog with 1 short coat could take like 2+ hours.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Cooper wants this. Well...maybe I really want it ;)

    ReplyDelete

    1. Oh and Coop loves after bath time. He runs around like crazy and rubs up against everything...silly dog

  20. I could so use one for my two dogs.

    ReplyDelete
  21. My dog hates bathe time, but he's a trooper and just stands there and takes it. My cat also hates bath time, but we bathe him anyway because it helps with our allergies. We are evil pet owners!

    ReplyDelete
  22. I think I might need this... Mocha resigns herself to bath time. Hates it, but in a quiet, tolerant way. However, if we're just rinsing her paws, we'll turn the water on, throw something floaty and she loves to spend time in the tub batting at the water. Kingsley hasn't had too many baths yet (he's only 4 months!) so he hasn't quite figured out the purpose of the torture.

    ReplyDelete
  23. I could totally use this! Bill tends to get dirty everytime he goes outside, and he's huge, so bath time is a real pain in the rear.

    ReplyDelete
  24. This would be a lifesaver around our house! Our golden retriever, Trudy, LOVES bathtime but HATES being dried. And she has so much hair that we use between 5 and 6 towels to get her to the point of just damp. This would be so handy!

  26. All three of my dogs are double coated and no one likes bath time. I'm as wet as they are by the time we're done.

    ReplyDelete
  27. I would love a super shammy. I'll be using the coupon code unless I get super lucky here. My dog Cooper is a city dog and a mostly indoor dog, but you wouldn't know it based on some of the messes he gets into!

    ReplyDelete
  28. My girl is okay with baths, but my boy hates them. :(

    ReplyDelete
  29. Jack dislikes baths. This towel looks very promising as he is always a soaking wet mess for hours afterwords.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Neither of my dogs like baths, but they cooperate once I get them in the tub. Pallo is horrible though, he stays wet for hours afterwards, and loves nothing more than going outside and rolling right after a bath.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Sir Digby Chicken Caesar is not a MONSTER fan of bath time, but once he's in there and a lathered up he really enjoys the scrubbing :) I will say...a soggy doggy shammy would definitely help with the drying time, and the looks he gets from both cats. It's embarrassing being a wet dog.

    ReplyDelete
  32. This is a great invention! Jixer (our black lab) is not a fan of bath time which is funny to me because she loves swimming and water in general. We could definitely use a slop mat too- she is the messiest drinker I have ever seen!!

    ReplyDelete
  33. This looks great! One of our dogs is a fast drier, but the other one seems to suck up the bath water and not let it go!

    ReplyDelete
  34. Although neither dog enjoys bath time it seems that Juno fairs better than Bubba about it. Afterwards she always gets super excited and starts zooming around the house - I guess its her version of a blow dryer? haha

    ReplyDelete
  35. they are fearful, are calm during the bath and then once they are dried off they run all over the house up, down, around to dry off even more and get any water out of their ears

    ReplyDelete
  36. My pooch has no problem running and getting in the tub when I tell him too. He loves the full body scratchdown he gets when it is shampoo time. :)

    ReplyDelete
  37. I could have used one of those a couple of weeks ago - but I am sure Rosie will be in need of a bath any day now! What a great product!
    Thanks - Shelley

    ReplyDelete
  38. My Gus hates the bath. And getting him dry is even worse. This would be very helpful!

    ReplyDelete
  39. This sounds great for after walks when it's rainy outside as well as after bath time. We're adopting a dog, so I'm stocking up on all the standard supplies, and a freebie would be great :-)

    Also, the toys that you blogged about from Harry Barker a while ago are so cute!

    ReplyDelete
  40. This would be great for my sister's husky, Nikki!

    ReplyDelete
  41. Hudson LOVES bath time!! He gets up on his little bench and waits to be scrubbed down. Then he comes and plops in my lap and waits to be blow dried. Such a diva! Lol What a great giveaway!!

    ReplyDelete
  42. Sounds like a great idea. Thanks for the giveaway!

    ReplyDelete
  43. I could definitely use one of these! Especially because we just seeded the yard and our pup comes in every day with super wet, dirty feet.

    ReplyDelete
  44. HATE bath time! I have two large dogs- one that has a lot of fur and doesn't mind the bath, and one that HATES the bath and will do everything possible to try to escape. By the time it's over with, the bathroom is COVERED in fur, water, and soap!

    ReplyDelete
  45. I have three dogs....so needless to say the bathroom is a disaster when the bathes are done! After taking care of three kids all day the absolute last thing I want to do is wash three dogs...lol. Oh yah...and the dogs don't really appreciate the bathes either!

    ReplyDelete
  46. Good thing my dog, at 126 lbs, doesn't mind baths too much to get into the bathtub for me. He has lots of hair, though, so I'm thinking we might need 2 of these towels!

    ReplyDelete
  47. Mac could care less but Eleanor hates them and clings on to you for dear life.

    ReplyDelete
  48. My dog used to hate going to the groomer but lately she goes right in! We almost never wash her at home since she needs to be clipped as well. Fussy Standard Poodle! It's wet times around here so I would love to keep her feet dry before she comes in!

    ReplyDelete
  49. I have 2 little furballs who would benefit from these awesome Shammys!

    ReplyDelete
  50. I have 3 pugs...1 is okay with the bath, 1 isn't in love with it...and 1 is obsessed (will jump back in tub while I'm trying to round up the other 2 for their turn!). He will get dirty on purpose so I *have* to give him a bath - so we'd love this as he hates the blow dryer, would ease manual dry time considerably!

    ReplyDelete
  51. My stinky dog could totally use this...

    P.S. I LOVE Ike's "walk" pose! :)

    ReplyDelete
  52. Just wanted to pop in and say I love your new header! This is my favorite by far :)

    ReplyDelete
  53. oooo scout would love one of these. he is a bath time hater.

    ReplyDelete
  54. Jack could definitely use this for when he comes in from outside. We gave up bathing him. It's easier to pay someone to deal with him when it comes to bathing.

    ReplyDelete
  55. Shiloh hates baths, but he enjoys the drying off with a towel part. He would love one of these!

    ReplyDelete
  56. This is a genius idea. I can never get Hurley and Lucy dry post bath and then the run around the house getting their "wet dog scent" EVERYWHERE!

    ReplyDelete
  57. My pup doesn't mind the shower at all. In face, when we come back from swimming at the pond by our house, he goes and stands by the door. He does love to rub his freshly clean, wet body all over my couch though!

    ReplyDelete
  58. Wilson and Lucy do not have a problem with bathes; however, it is not their favorite activity.

    ReplyDelete
  59. My dog Maxx hates bath time. As soon as he gets out we dry him as best we can with normal towels, but he goes through the house & rubs his doggie body over everything in site, his bed, the rugs, the sofa, etc...It would be great to have something that would get all of the extra dampness out of his hair, so everything in the house doesn't smell like wet doggie.

    ReplyDelete
  60. Sounds cool. Feeney doesn't mind showers, which is a good thing since he gets them twice a month. He's seriously due for one right now. P.U.

    ReplyDelete
  61. Ike looks adorable! I think he is adorable in any situation. Yui absolutely HATES baths. She actually got one this morning and made me feel like I was torturing her. This would probably be a very useful product for us!

    ReplyDelete
  62. My dog has had 3 baths in the last 5 days. So, I think I need one of these. Fortunately, Shalai LOOOOOVES baths. You just say "get in the tub" and she runs upstairs and jumps in the tub and waits for you to come up. Kind of adorable.

    ReplyDelete
  63. I love Ike! My girl pup Dixie doesn't mind baths but also doesn't love them. Her brother Chip is a super wuss and hates bath time! They both try to escape when I'm trying to dry them so the faster, the better!

    ReplyDelete
  64. My pup just freezes and goes all rigor mortis-like as soon as the water starts running... :) Afterwards he runs around the house like a crazy rubbing himself off on our bed/couch/carpets. I could really use this shammy!

    ReplyDelete
  65. My dog hates bath time. We've learned she doesn't mind showers as much though.

    ReplyDelete
  66. while not too fond of it, he puts up with it, lol.

    ReplyDelete
  67. OMG, my dog hates baths and being wet. After her bath she uses every surface in the house to dry herself. This is genius! Let wet dog smells everywhere!

  68. I have two large breed dogs and this would be great!
