"I love the Water Trapper , I was disappointed as I ordered the green and Abbie's name was also in green making it very hard to read or even see that her name was on the Water Trapper . Other than than very good quality. I would recommend this product."

Great Dog Bowl Placemat,
December 5, 2012
By: tikiti
from Los Angeles, CA
"This placemat is terrific. At first I wished there was a smaller size, but this is perfect for my English Springer Spaniel, who loves water and tends to slop it around. Food and water bowls fit easily on the mat with tons of surrounding space to catch the water. The color and craftmanship are all topnotch and personalizing it with your dog's name is so cute. The underside is rubberized, so it does not slip at alI. I also bought one as a X-mas present for my brother's dogs and now I can't wait to give it to him!"

Excellent Pet Placemat,
November 30, 2012
By: Etak
from Florida
"Excellent quality! Ordered the khaki and it is close to the color shown and size is as stated. Had this engraved with our pet's name and truly does enhance the mat. Looks very nice in our kitchen. Easy to clean. Our standard poodle says she feels very special that we got this for her!"

Great placemat!,
November 20, 2012
By: Tommy001
from New York
"I looked all over for a well made placemat and just kept coming back to this one for our new incoming Bloodhound Clyde! Once we got it and placed it down on our hardwood floor I already knew it was perferct. It's very durable and with the rubber backing it wont slide all over the place while the dog is eating / drinking. It's also real easy to clean off as well - you can simply even just take it and blast it with a hose or pressure washer and it's like new again.
I give this item a strong thumbs up and would recommend it to anyone!
Tommy"

"I have a large chocolate lab that puts a mouthful of food in his and then looks around while he is chewing. So far, the placemat is big enough to catch everything he drops as he eats. It's also very sturdy and easy to clean."

So perfect it fools you!,
January 3, 2012
By: MichiganDogLady
from Clarkston, MI
"My dog is the sloppiest drinker ever and the water trapper mat I've had for years still works, looks brand new and saves me so much cleanup, I bought one for a friend. The nice size, quality and deep rich color (evergreen) looked so great, she thought it was a front door welcome mat!
These are beautiful and they really work. The perfect pet placemat."

"I just got a new puppy and bought this mat for his not so clean way of wiping his butt. I also find that the winter can track all sorts of things into the house. This little mat helps to dry those wet paws."

Durable AND good looking,
December 22, 2011
By: geometryteacher
from Mississippi
"I've purchased this mat for now the third dog in my household. It's large enough to collect all the spillage but small enough not to be in the way. The personalization is well done. I have 2 tan and 1 blue, and the colors are great. And they never look dirty even when they are."

Great Product,
November 13, 2011
By: YodaBookseller
from Boston, MA
"Great for under the water/food bowl for our lab, who brings a good part of the water with him when he has a drink. Since we have hardwood floors, this product provided a better solution than the rugs and towels we were using. My only criticism is that a larger size option - wider and or longer would have been nice, but it actually fits perfectly in our kitchen."

Food and Water Mat,
September 15, 2011
By: Patman211
"I recieved the mat and it is fine EXCEPT there is a flaw in the mterial. There is a BLACK spot on the boarder that resembles a cigarette burn. I doubt that is what it is but that is the best description. I can't believe someone with quality assurance didn't see that before shipping to me as it was the first thing I noticed. I didn't want to go through the hassle of sending it back to get another. I'll try to stain it to match but was very frustrated that I couldn't get a product without cosmetic flaws. Especially at the price. You should get what you paid for."

An Attractive Solution,
August 19, 2011
By: terryandpepper
from Little Falls, NJ
"I purchased this personalized and in green to hopefully limit the amount of water dribble requiring clean-up each time Pepper (@ 15 pounds and shaggy) got thirsty. This works exactly as stated, and has stopped the excessive bending and saved some trees, as paper towels previously used for this purpose are no longer required. You may want to consider offering this in custom wall-to-wall sizes for those with large, shaggy 4-pawed friends. I wish the name could be in a contrasting color to be more visible, but that appears difficult given the content of the material and structure of the mat. All things considered this is a great product and makes life easier."

Sloppy Drinker FIX,
June 22, 2011
By: Sofie
from NC
"This is my second mat I've gotten from Orvis - 1 for home, 1 for work. The first one was the rectangular one whereas this one has the corners cut out. Both work equally well and just as Orvis say they will. My only dislike with this one is the heather color in this evergreen mat. I would prefer just solid green. Now, if my weim would just stand still after she drinks!"
