DOG TOWELS

It is not necessary to wash before use but if you decide to, just follow the wash instructions on the label attached

Yes! You can wash the dog towels in the washing machine. No more than 140F/60C do not bleach and only tumble dry on a low heat.

After using the dog towels, you can dry them by hanging them up on a clothesline or rack, or by placing them in a dryer on a low heat setting to make them extra fluffy. It's important to ensure that the dog towels are completely dry before storing them to prevent any musty odors or mold growth

To maintain the freshness and hygiene of your dog towel, we recommend washing it regularly by either hand washing or using a washing machine. Over time, the towel can accumulate odor and bacteria from prolonged use, so it's important to clean it to remove any unpleasant smells. By washing the towel periodically, you can prevent any persistent odors from developing and ensure that it stays fresh for longer. So, make sure to wash your dog towel regularly to keep it clean and smelling great.

Using the two side pockets of the dog towel, you can gain better control and keep your hands dry while drying your pet. Simply place your hands into the pockets and use the dog towel to effectively dry your furry friend.

With long microfiber chenille fibers, the towel is designed to effectively absorb water from your dog's fur, regardless of its length. These fibers work deep into your pet's coat, providing efficient and thorough drying.

The towel is made of polyester microfiber fabric.

The Enviroment around us

"I am committed to designing eco-friendly packaging for all of my products, and strictly avoid using any plastic materials. Whenever possible, I seek out solutions to reduce the amount of plastic in my products, and aim to develop new solutions that eliminate plastic altogether. My ultimate goal is to close the loop on all of my products, and I believe that this can be achieved through the continued success of Dolphin & Dog. I am dedicated to making a positive impact on the environment and am always exploring new ways to improve the sustainability of my products."

"I'm proud to say that I'm taking steps to help the environment by implementing a tree-planting initiative on my website. Every order made will go towards a tree being planted here in Australia, which can help to reduce my business carbon footprint while promoting reforestation efforts. I am currently on the search fro a marine projects to support. These initiatives are just the beginning of my commitment to promoting sustainability and a greener future for our planet."

"At the heart of Dolphin & Dog is the belief that alternate solutions can be thought of and designed if we make the effort to do so. My main goal is to build a brand that showcases the potential for sustainable design and production. As I continue to grow, I will be dedicated to expanding the range of products to offer both plastic-free and closed-loop solutions.

I recognize the impact that plastic waste has on the planet, and I am committed to being part of the solution. My focus on sustainable materials and design principles enables me to create products that are both functional and environmentally responsible. By providing consumers with a range of sustainable options in the future, I hope to encourage more widespread adoption of sustainable products and production methods.

As I continue to develop the product lines, i am always exploring new ways to reduce the environmental impact and improve the sustainability of the business. I believe that with a focus on sustainability and a commitment to innovation, I can build a brighter future for ourselves and the planet."

For me, the concept of tree planting revolves around offsetting the paper used for packaging and media, as an alternative to using plastic. This serves a dual purpose of reducing the amount of harmful plastic waste while also replenishing the trees used in paper production. By planting trees, we can take an important step towards creating a more sustainable and eco-friendly future. Additionally, the act of planting trees will contribute to Dolphin & Dog's efforts to become carbon neutral in the near future. Overall, tree planting is a simple yet effective solution that can have a significant positive impact on the environment and our planet.
