This shammy is a great innovation. The pockets are great and you hand really stays in them and you hardly loose the rest of the shammy while drying your fur baby. My dogs (4) haven't gotten real wet in the little rain we have had, but when using this super shammy, they are dry when I am done with them and the shammy isn't that wet either. I have used only 1 of the 2 that I bought. If we have a really rainy day and they get really wet, It will be a handy back-up. I really love this product. Their slobber shammy is really great too. Gave one to a friend whose pit bull really drools and they are always yelling get the stick. Mine works will with my lab and what hits the floor.
