Battles Rugsafe Mucky Mutts Dog Drying Mitts
Description
Battles Rugsafe Mucky Mutts Dog Drying Mitts
Battles Rugsafe Mucky Mutts are absorbent drying mitts that you wear on your hands to dry and clean a muddy dog. They are made for dog owners and yard people who need to get mud and water off a coat, legs and paws quickly, before the dog reaches the house, the tack room or the car.
Because the mitt sits on your hand rather than flapping loose like a towel, you keep full control of the dog and can work into the awkward spots - between the toes, up the legs, under the belly, around the ears and along the tail. Best for wet winter walks, post-swim clean-ups and muddy turnout fields.
Key Features
- Absorbent mitts that lift mud and moisture from the coat and paws

- Reaches legs, paws, belly, chest, ears and tail with ease
- Reusable and machine washable for everyday use
- Suitable for dogs of all sizes, from terriers to large breeds
- Compact enough to keep in the boot of the car or the tack room

FAQ
What are Battles Rugsafe Mucky Mutts used for?
They are drying and cleaning mitts for dogs. You wear them on your hands to absorb water and lift mud from the coat, legs and paws after walks, swimming or turnout.
Are they better than a normal dog towel?
Many owners find them easier to control. Because the mitt is fixed to your hand, it will not slip or be dragged off, and you can reach legs, paws and under the belly far more precisely than with a loose towel.
Will they suit a large dog or only small breeds?
They are suitable for dogs of all sizes. On larger breeds you simply cover more ground, and using a mitt on each hand speeds the job up considerably.
Can they be washed?
Yes. Rinse off heavy mud after use, machine wash as required and allow to dry naturally. Regular washing keeps the fibres absorbent.
Are they useful on a horse yard as well as at home?
Yes. They are handy for drying the yard dog before it gets into the car or the tack room, and they store easily in a grooming box or boot.
Will my dog tolerate them?
Most dogs settle into the massaging motion quickly. With nervous or young dogs, introduce the mitts slowly, start on the shoulders and keep the first sessions short.
