edogs review: dryup® cape (2021)


Our testers took a closer look at the dryup cape from actionfactory with their dogs.

The dog bathrobe is made of 100% cotton, effectively removes dirt and also absorbs excess moisture. This makes the dryup cape an indispensable item in any dog owner's household.


You can read about how the bathrobe from actionfactory performed in the test in the following reviews.




Ulrike tested the dryup® cape from actionfactory

I was thrilled when I found out that I could test the “DRYUP CAPE” dog bathrobe from “actionfactory” with my Cavapoo dog Dunja!

Since I was never really satisfied with our previous bathrobe, I wanted to look for a new one soon anyway.

I have to admit that I wasn't familiar with actionfactory before, and I'm thrilled with the range of products they offer. They offer various dog clothes, divided into four categories (dry up capes, warm up capes, active capes, and special capes), various dog blankets and pillows, surgical wound protection overalls, and other very practical and sometimes unusual products! It's definitely worth taking a look at their website!

We chose the brown bathrobe in size Mini 45 cm. It fits my dog perfectly, with a back length of 46 cm and a belly circumference of 48 cm!

The bathrobe is made of 100% cotton terry cloth, which is cozy and soft! This is a high-quality natural fiber that has many advantages over synthetic fibers!

I find it particularly important that there is no static charge when taking off the cape or rubbing the dog's coat, and that moisture is drawn out not only from the surface but also from the dog's undercoat. In addition, the moisture is stored directly in the cotton fibers, thus transporting the wetness away from the dog's coat!


Other important aspects of a dog bathrobe for me are:

– easy to put on and take off
– all important parts of the body are dried
– quick-drying and absorbent
– good adjustable fastening at the back for a comfortable fit
– sufficient freedom of movement so that the dog can move normally during the drying process and is not restricted
– particularly lightweight.


The ‘DRYUP CAPE’ fully meets these criteria!

We mainly use the bathrobe after bathing, but also when Dunja gets wet on walks or has been swimming!

I am particularly impressed by how easy the bathrobe is to use and how quickly it can be put on!

The bathrobe has an extra hole at the back for the tail, a belly flap that is pulled between the front legs and a buckle fastener that secures the cape to the back so it doesn't slip. The long turtleneck can also be used as a hood!

Dunja has worn the bathrobe several times now and she feels really comfortable in it! You can tell by the fact that she patiently lets me put it on her and makes herself comfortable on the sofa for hours on end, even sleeping in it!

Thanks to its good absorbency, her coat dries much faster than without the robe! It also absorbs dirt from her coat!

I am 100% satisfied with the bathrobe and, in summary, we would definitely recommend it!



Julia tested thedryup® cape from actionfactory

We were among the lucky testers who got to try out the dryup cape dog bath mat.

I have a 6-year-old Ca de Bestiar male dog who likes to roll around in muddy puddles and then needs a bath every now and then.

It always takes a while for him to dry off completely because he doesn't like being blow-dried.

The size chart explains exactly how to measure your dog and which size you need if you are between two sizes.

Pepé is just under 65 cm tall and we opted for size L. This fits perfectly. The dog bathrobe is super soft and feels very comfortable.

It has a belly strap so that it doesn't slip even when worn for longer periods.

The dog is dry again in no time, as the bathrobe is very absorbent.

It is still soft and fluffy even after the first wash.

– Particularly lightweight.

Conclusion: The bathrobe is of excellent quality and does what it promises. It is also visually appealing.

Anja tested the dryup® cape from actionfactory

I am absolutely thrilled!

The bathrobe is super light and made of terry cloth, like a towel.

It absorbs water really well, so the dog dries quickly.

The bathrobe was intended for Anton, and it fit perfectly in size XL. However, Kalle also fits into it, even though he needs at least two sizes smaller.

So it's better to get one that's too big than too small.

The freedom of movement is great; despite wearing the coat, the dogs were able to move around without it getting in the way.

It is also very easy to put on and take off, and the two dogs liked it – otherwise they never let us dress them.

A great product and highly recommended!
