Nov 17, 2025
Real insights from 2,686 verified reviews.
Every dog has their own little routine after a wet walk. Some shake, some zoom, some burrow under blankets… and some — like gorgeous Macchiato here — sit patiently in their Dogrobe, cosy, calm and already half dry.

Over the past 21 years we’ve heard thousands of stories just like this one. So we analysed 2,686 verified reviews to uncover the real reasons dogs and their humans love Dogrobes — from the practical to the heart-warming and everything in between.
Here’s what they told us.
Why dogs love Dogrobes
Dogs can’t write reviews (sadly!), but their humans certainly speak on their behalf. Across thousands of comments, dogs love Dogrobes because they’re:
Cosy, calming and comforting
Many pups curl up and fall asleep in their Dogrobe after a wet walk or bath. The soft cotton towelling feels gentle on skin and fur and helps even anxious dogs relax.
Warm while they dry
Young pups, seniors and slimmer breeds feel the cold more. Dogrobes keep them warm while the fabric quietly goes to work absorbing moisture.
Easy to wear
No noisy Velcro, nothing startles sensitive ears. Simple ties mean a snug, secure fit without fuss.
A reassuring routine
Owners tell us their dogs literally stand and wait to have their robe put on — it becomes a lovely post-walk ritual: robe on, cuddles, nap.
Perfect paired with Snoods
The Snood + Dogrobe combo helps soothe nervous dogs during storms, fireworks or blow-drying. The gentle stretch gives a swaddled, safe feeling.

Why humans love Dogrobes
Of course, Dogrobes have to make your life easier too — and from the reviews, they certainly do.
Faster, easier drying
No more wrestling with towels or battling with a hairdryer around a soggy dog. A Dogrobe quietly gets on with the job.
Stops the big shake
Water everywhere. Dogrobes catch most of it before it lands on your walls, floors or furniture.
Less mess in cars and motorhomes
After muddy adventures, dogs hop in wearing their Dogrobe and your boot stays cleaner. Holiday cottages stay cleaner too.
Reduces endless towel washing
One Dogrobe often replaces several soggy towels.
Looks smart and well-made
Perfect for hydrotherapy sessions, grooming visits, dog-friendly hotels and staying with family.
Dogs actually enjoy wearing them
This is the phrase we see again and again "my dog loves their Dogrobe" — and it’s the biggest win of all.
Why Dogrobe MAX is a game-changer
The Dogrobe MAX is adored by water-lovers, mud magnets and big adventurers.
Brilliant belly and chest coverage
The extra panel underneath dries faster, especially for low-to-the-ground breeds like Dachshunds.
Great for post-swim warmth
Whether it’s beach dips, river swims or hydrotherapy, MAX keeps dogs warm while drying properly.
Improved fit for broader chests
Poodles, Doodles and deep-chested dogs get a much better snug-but-comfy fit with MAX.
Stays put during zoomies
MAX doesn’t budge — even on the wriggliest of pups.
A natural upgrade
Many reviewers say they started with the Original… tried MAX… and would never go back.
Check out the Dogrobe MAX range - available in 3 classic and 3 vibrant colours.

Why Snoods are essential
Snoods might look cute — but they’re incredibly practical too. Here's why our reviewers love them.
Dry long ears and neck fur
Spaniels, Doodles, setters and long-eared breeds dry much faster with a Snood.
Keep ears out of food bowls
No more yoghurt ears or gravy streaks.
Help protect from grass seeds
A huge help during summer months or long walks through fields.
Create calm
Great for sensitive dogs who dislike the hairdryer or who need reassurance during fireworks.
Complete the drying kit
The perfect partner to a Dogrobe.
