1It came with the house
and it looks like itThey Realized the Old Doormat Looked Like It Belonged in the Garage
A scratchy brown doormat does fine on the porch. Bring it inside by the back door and it pulls the whole room down. Muddy Mat comes in grey, beige, chocolate and navy, with a thick, soft pile that looks like you picked it out for the room. Over 450 five star reviews mention the color or the look.
“It looks awesome in our living room, it feels great on our feet and the dogs love it!”

Soft under bare feet
Thick Mudlock™ fibers you will like stepping on as much as he does.
2Mud on the paws
meant mud on the floorThey Watched the Mud Stay on the Mat Instead of the Hallway
Thousands of thick chenille Mudlock™ fibers wipe dirt, grass and water off his feet in a few steps. The mess settles down between the fibers, so the floor past the mat stays clean. On a really muddy day, give him a second to stand on it.
“Great dirt catcher. Keeps grass and debris on the mat. Not on my new rug!”

3The towel by the door
never kept upThey Quit Wrestling Four Wet Paws With a Towel
Catch the dog, hold a foot, wipe, and do it again while he wiggles to get away. Then the towel needs washing too. On a Muddy Mat he wipes his own feet just by walking in.
“Works well to absorb moisture. We no longer have to lay several towels down.”

Let him walk across, then give him a moment to stand.
He gets to come right in
No chasing him down and no holding his feet.
4A regular mat
barely soaks anything upThey Found Out a Regular Mat Lets the Water Walk Right Past
Most indoor mats are thin. Water sits on top and he carries it straight across the kitchen. Muddy Mat soaks up 5x more than a regular mat, so the wet stays at the door.
