Jacob's Den

Jacob's Den say:

Jacob's Den is all about making beautiful but practical items for your much loved furry friend. Jacob's Den was set up after a long battle of trying to keep my little cross breed dry overnight due to urine incontinence. The development of the Wet Dog Mat has resulted in a clean, dry and happy dog every morning. Our range also includes the Sofa Sack, a bed that your dog snuggle inside and a selection of cuddly blankets.

Reviewed 30th September 2019
I have many items from Jacobs Den I have not been disappointed with any of the items. The wet dogs mats really work (leakey old dog) the sofa sacks are great, they keep my dogs warm and cozy. They also keep my furniture clean and tidy. The new beds are wonderful, my dogs don't want to get out, unless it's walks or food time.

“Sofa Sack for my Whippet”
Reviewed 16th June 2017
Having had several Wet Dog Mats in the past for my lovely old lurcher girl (sadly no longer with us) - I knew the quality of the Jacob's Den products was unquestionable. My new whippet Millie loves to snuggle and so I thought I would try out the Sofa Sacks. No sooner had I opened the package & laid it on the sofa - she was in it & snoozing away... I think this is going to be a big hit ! There's nothing worse than a chilly whippet ...

“Snuggly Blanket!”
Reviewed 5th June 2017
Lady (my dog) and I were very pleased with our new Jacob's Den blanket! Lady will insist on sleeping on the floor by the window and because I bought the big girl size I can double it over so her eleven year old bones are more comfortable. Beautifully made, excellent quality fleece and rapid despatch. We could do with another one soon for the other window!

“Sofa sacks and wet blanket - best choices ever!”
Reviewed 20th August 2016
I have a very sweet little JRTcross who loves being warm - we now have 3 (!) sofa sacks in constant use and a wet blanket to keep her warm (with the cats!) on the kitchen floor. Best products I have got, definitely worth the money - well made and long lasting. We wouldn't be without them.

“Beautiful but Practical”
Reviewed 4th May 2016
I needed a blanket/mat that I could use that would be good for Betsy that would absorb wet but would keep Betsy dry at the same time; which brought about the need for the Wet Dog Mat (WDM). The WDM is the perfect solution as it was initially designed for dogs that are a bit leaky and wake up wet in the mornings. If your dog is experiencing urine incontinence, it is vital that the dog is kept as clean and dry as possible. By using waterproof bedding, your dog will remain sat or laying in the urine, causing skin irritation and potentially burns. The WDM is both absorbent and waterproof meaning that your dog will remain dry plus anything under the mat will also remain dry.

The WDM is made up of a faux-lambskin or polar fleece top, a cotton or fleece bottom and an absorbent layer in the middle. The absorbent middle consists of 5 functional layers. The top layer is made from a highly technical fabric which allows liquids to quickly pass through, whilst it still remains dry and comfortable for the dog. The liquid is then locked away in the middle layers and the waterproof and breathable polyurethane backing prevents penetration of the liquid to anything underneath the WDM. The product has been designed for long term use and can be washed and re-used many times. In fact, the rate of absorbency will increase after the first few washes.

The WDM is made specially to go over your existing dog bed, or on the sofa, or even on your own bed if your dog sleeps with you. The WDM is also suitable to be used in the car after hydrotherapy sessions to help dry your dog quicker on the way home or even after a very wet walk, where the mat will draw the water away from your dog, keeping them dry and warm on the way home and this is why I bought the WDM for Betsy as I have a limited time to get Betsy dry, so I quickly dry Betsy with a towel and then put her soft fuchsia Equafleece dog suit on her and then place her in the car on her WDM and away we go.

There are 4 sizes available in the WDM
Small (50cmx74cm) £30
Medium (75cmx91cm) £40
Large (91cmx91) £50
Extra Large (85cmx135cm) £60

I purchased 2 WDM's because after buying the medium one for the car, I got the extra large WDM for the house to go over my cotton linen sofa so that when Betsy runs into the house with wet paws and wet Equafleece she just jumps onto the WDM on the sofa and doesn't make anything else wet or dirty.

The WDM is easy to wash. It should be washed at 30 degrees and can either be hung up to dry or put in the tumble drier on a cool cycle. You should not wash the mat using any softeners/conditioners or 2-in-1 washing powders/liquids. Before the WDM be used be, it should washed and dried at least once before use to start off the absorbency in the mat.

Details and examples of all of the products can be found on the Internet (www.jacobsden.co.uk). You will also find a link to the fabric page to see what they have in stock. The website currently does not have a shopping cart/order system as each product is a bespoke item. In the first instance, you should email them using the contact form or email directly at jacobs.den@aol.co.uk to discuss fabric, sizes, etc. Once they have agreed all of the details, they will email you an invoice for payment. Full payment will need to be made at the time of placing the order and your order will not be started until this has been received.

I am very impressed with the WDM and the quality of it is brilliant and works out excellent value for money. I highly recommend it.

I have two wet dog mats and some blankets from Jacobs Den. The wet dog mat in invaluable for a muddy spaniel. It keeps him dry, my sofa dry, washes beautifully and still looks as good as new despite many washes.
I have found all Jacobs Dens products to be of expectional quality and are good value for money. Dominque is a one woman business but is highly efficient and very approachable with endless patience- when I keep changing my mind on fabric choices!
This is one of the best dog products I have and would highly recommend it

“The Wet Dog Mat”
Reviewed 4th May 2016
I have run a rescue for over ten years and part of our work is what we call the Wonky Dog and Cat Club. This involves us taking animals in with life challenging illness or injury. This includes paralysed dogs and ones with urinary incontinence. We also take very elderly dogs, some of which have developed incontinence. The use of Wet Dog Mats has made and amazing difference to the way we care for these dogs. Some do not do well wearing incontinence pads, becoming sore and uncomfortable but by using the mats the dogs remain dry and comfortable all night and day. The mats are washed daily so we have quite a few available and they last a very long time despite this frequent laundering. A great product that has transformed the way we care for these special animals.

“You wont beat Jacob's Den”
Reviewed 12th April 2016
I was looking for something very specific for my dog, he has an illness that needs him to be warm, cosy & safe. He normally tries to find a little nook to snuggle into. Jacob's Den had my answer. I received fantastic support when choosing a product & what would be the best for him. I was also recommended other products to help my dog to which I am extremely grateful.
I then brought home a rescue pup who was badly neglected and left with no fur. It was during our very cold spell. My item was made, despatched within a few days. The skills of Jacob's Den is amazing. A great range of products, fabrics & designs. I even have to mention the after care & compassion of this lady. She asks after both my dogs & always there for support. She also was generous enough to donate a product to our Auction which raises money for rescue dogs & vital research. A**

Once again Jacobs Den have come to my rescue, my English toy terrier Maddie, likes to be nice and warm, having lost her undercoat (bald from chin to bottom). Every night she would bark when her blanket fell off. Sofa Sack to the rescue, I now sleep all night, she is able to lift the edge of the sack and step in. Good looking and great quality too.

“Amazing value, dogs love them!”
Reviewed 8th April 2016
I recently bought three sofa sacks on auction night so they were a little cheaper. I honestly feel a little mean for doing this? They are worth so much more than their price tag? I didn't realise two of my three were made with a fleecey fabric, this has gone down so well. A week in, one of my dogs has worked out how to actually get inside?! Either way, I am convinced come winter (not wishing it yet!) they will all work it out. At the moment they are protecting my sofa and the dogs adore lying on them. One has already been through the wash, and came out as good as new. I have a feeling they will last a long long time... The perfect product.

“Sofa sacks!”
Reviewed 7th April 2016
I bought a sofa sack to try with my dogs and it was such a success I had to buy two more!
The lurchers love to snuggle inside them at night, they do require a little assistance with their long limbs but wait patiently whilst they are helped in.
The JRT also has his own smaller sack and loves the feel of the beautifully soft cuddle fleece inside.
Excellent products, highly recommended!

I have bought 3 of the Wet Dog Mats for my girl who has steroid induced incontinence (unfortunately an unpleasant side effect of life saving treatment) and I have to say I could t be without them now. Before purchase my girl was getting recurrent UTI's due to being in contact with wet puppy pads. Since buying the Wet Dog Mats my girl is comfortable, dry and hasn't had a urine infection for a long time. I use them in her bed and in the sofa so she's allowed to sleeps where she wants without me having to worry about her spoiling the furniture or having to wash her bed all the time. The quality of them is fantastic and they wash incredibly well. Thank You so much Jacobs Den for helping to make my girl more comfortable and happier as a result.

Murphy loves her sofa sack and we were really impressed with the quality too. It was great to be able to choose the fabrics from a wide choice and it arrived quickly too. Wherever we go, Murphy can take her sack with her even if she can't take her bed. It's also useful to cuddle her in after a bath as she goes wet dog nuts otherwise!
