Chamois—why didn’t I know about this magic?

[M.F.]

At the dog physio where Snowie has underwater treadmill sessions, he’s dried off with a chamois. Then a final rub down with a towel. They said that it saves having to dry sodden towels.

So we bought a chamois (not the leather one, the “fake” chamois). Oh my word!! The magic of drying up! And I get to water the pot plants when wringing our the chamois—so much water! And no more sopping wet towels trying to dry outside.

We then bought a chamois for each car. Yesterday at the forest, drying off Snowie after his river dip was so easy with no wet towel after. Why did it take me so long to know about this??!!

Hah, it's the same as the Aquasorb (or similar) towels. We have two which do all our dogs - meaning my hubby and I can both be drying them at the same time. There's no need for any more. Wring and repeat!

Yes, we use aquasorb. You wash them, wring them and keep them in a plastic tube - no drying towels hanging around!

Yeah they are fab!

Same here and they dry quickly too! x

Yes I'm a fan of these too.

Aquasorbs here too. So easy to use. If they get a bit mucky just wash them with a mild detergent and wring them out. Pop them back in the tube still damp and they are ready to use again!

We started out that way. But then they got really smelly. So, for the ones at home—there are two outside at the pool—we wring them out, fold them, and put a stone on them (lots of wind!). They do dry out, but quickly get soft on first use and wringing out. And they no longer smell.

Well, I see you were all in on the “secret”!! Can’t believe it’s only taken me 7.5 years to find out. Better late than never!

A little squidge of Simple Solution after rinsing out stops any smelliness.
