No More Wet Wood Floors!,
December 4, 2009
By:
JanT
"We recently adopted a 6 y.o. German Shepherd. I've never owned a GSD who has such a 'lust' for the water bowl! The Orvis mat has been a life saver! It's large enough to catch all water that he slops out of the bowl, then it just magically disappears! I checked the floor underneath several times before I was convinced that the water would NOT go through the mat. The mat is also non slip plus it sits so flat on the floor that there's no problem with tripping over a corner as with other mats. The free personalization was also a nice touch! Great product!"

"Just received our 4th mat for under our 2nd Spinone's dishes. We have 2 houses with wood floors and this really helps with water slobbering all over the floor. The look is very simple and clean."

"This is a great feeding Mat that can be personalized. I got the Dark Green one with my dog's name on it. I like it but it is a little hard to read the name in the dark color."

Not the Greatest,
February 1, 2010
By:
MJ05from PA
"I purchased this for my Labrador because he was splling water over his dish onto my hard wood floors and damaging them. I read the reviews and it seemed like it was worth the cost, so I ordered a mat. However, my dog still spills water onto the mat and the water seeps through to the hard wood floors, so my problem was definitley not solved by ordering this product. Also, when I received the mat the rubber was dry and cracked on the bottom, I am not sure if that is a product default or not."

"I have 2 bassethounds that can dribble and make a watery mess but this mat has worked well in containing the water..looks good and I have other mats that I have purchased for at the entrance door and they are equally helpful in preventing alot of dirt and mud from entering the house on their paws..would definitely recommend any of the waterhog products"

One Problem Solved,
December 31, 2009
By:
Joniefrom Anderson, Ca
"We have 3 dogs who REALLY ENJOY their water. Our linoleum ended up with hard water stains even though I had the waterer in a large plastic tray. When we replaced the floor we moved their water outside, but the dogs never adjusted and we would forget to refill their water.
We decided to give the mat a try. It's only been a week, but so far there are NO visible spills and no muddy tracks by the waterer even with an extra dog here visiting for the holidays.
I would buy this again and I would recommend it to anyone with 'drippy' pets."

good for enthusiastic drinkers,
December 30, 2009
By:
westiesrulefrom Dog-lover,
"I have one of these mats for each of my Westies The mats are very good at keeping my floors dry. Being puppies, my little dogs manage to drip, dribble and knock water out of their bowls and onto their mats on a regular basis. I think the mats are nice looking and effective though they do hang onto dog hair and crumbs a bit because of the grooves and the fabric. I hose them off every once in a while and they look as good as new. They are a little expensive but unlike cheaper mats, they do work. I would recommend these mats to any dog owner."

I wish I had found these sooner!,

By:
GraciesMomfrom Eastern KY
"We have 3 large dogs and it seems they are all thirsty at the same time. Before we got the watertrapper pet mats, after they all got a drink, our kitchen floor was soaked! We were constantly mopping up water...no more. These mats are great and do exactly what they advertise. We have had the pet mats a month, we just ordered 2 of the star-quilt mats and plan to buy 2 of the therapheutic microfiber mats soon! Guess that speaks for itself!"

Great Product,
October 22, 2009

"This product has been a great addition to our home! No more water all over the floor, which is great since we have hardwood. Our dog used to have water puddles underneath the previous mat, and it was starting to create a water spot on the floor. This has solved the problem! Any food that falls also lands onto the mat making it very easy to clean up. I tried several other products before this one, and wish I had found this sooner! I would recommend this to anyone...messy dog or not. The personalization also looks really nice."

Love These Mats!!!!!,

"I recently moved into a house with hardwood floors. I was concerned about them getting damaged by water because one of my cats loves to play in her water bowl. These mats work great!!! They are also attractive, very durable and easy to clean. The personalization is a great extra. I would definitely recommend these as they are well worth the price."

Pet Placement & Water Trapper,
July 3, 2009
By:
Bugg93from Lincolnton, Georgia
"I've owned 3 poodles, and all of them have hated to eat on my tiled kitchen floor. And how many times have you walked through the kitchen and kicked over their water bowl? This Orvis Pet Placemat and Water Trapper is worth its weight in hours of back-breaking work, mopping up and scrubbing up stuck on food, or picking up dry dog food my present poodle used to carry to the carpet to eat. And it's much easier to clean than the mess my little guy made! Thanks for making such a practical and long lasting product for us dog lovers! It's poodle-rific!"

By:
Freyrfrom Jackson, MS
"This was the first dog item I purchased from Orvis about a year ago when I got my first dog. It works very nicely in our small kitchen - Bonnie is a messy water drinker, so this solves that problem. After the great experience I had with this mat - I had it personalized - I always go to Orvis first when looking for dog stuff!"

"My 2 black labs make a huge mess when they drink water. I got 2 of these mats with thier names on them. They not only look awesome, but no more slipping in puddles of water for me. The mats really absorb the water, and the names look great."

"I had wanted to purchase this mat for a while. Somehow, I just put up with my Lab's messing water drinking habit too long. We had tried other water absorbing mats that we bought at local stores. They just got nasty after a couple of months. This one is in great condition. I cannot believe how well is absorbs water and does not even look like it is wet."
