What makes a rug pet friendly?

The rugs we sell to people with dogs and cats. They are machine woven in dense, low synthetic pile, which is what actually matters: nothing for a claw to pull into a loop, nothing for a puppy to chew loose, no fiber to shed into a coat, and a surface that takes soap and water without matting or bleeding color. An accident sits on the surface long enough to blot, and the fiber does not hold odor the way wool does. Wool and viscose are lovely, and they are not this. If your dog sleeps in the sun on the living room floor, buy from this page.

Will it hold the smell after a pet accident?

Not the way wool does. Polypropylene and polyester do not absorb liquid, so an accident sits on the surface rather than soaking into the fiber, and once it is blotted and the spot washed with mild soap and water there is nothing left in the pile to smell. Act while it is fresh: what does reach the backing is harder to clear than what stays on top.

Are these rugs machine washable?

No. These are room-size woven rugs, not washable mats, and they are not made to go through a machine. They are made to be cleaned where they lie: vacuum with the beater bar off, blot spills as they happen, and wash the spot with mild soap and warm water.

Do these rugs ship free?

Yes. Every order ships free within the contiguous United States with no minimum, and tracking is emailed at dispatch. Rugs of 9' x 12' and larger go by freight carrier, which involves a call to book the delivery.
