Good pad, but not for cold weather
I ordered this as a lightweight option for a sleeping mat for my dog. My dog is an 80 pound (32 kg) lab. The first thing I noticed was that the pad is very light and packs into a reasonably small space (a built-in strap with velcro tab hold the packed pad together). The second thing I noticed is that this pad is thin. Very thin.The first time I used this pad was on an overnight trip in Lassen National Forest with a low temp of about 38 degrees F (3 C). I was sleeping on my BA Q Core pad with a 30F (-1C) North Face sleeping bag. I was warm enough that did not even zip my bag closed, but my dog was not so lucky. First of all, the pad is barely big enough for my dog to lay on (it's just fine as long as he lies in the absolute middle) so he always had either his but or his front off the pad.This is not a knock against the pad, but just an observation for other dog owners to help judge to size of the pad. Second, the pad is so thin that there was barely any temperature difference between the top of the pad and the floor of the tent (the R-value of this pad is very low). Finally, the bottom of this pad is made with a very slippery fabric so the pad tends to slide out from under the sleeping dog. In the end I draped my unzipped bag over both my dog and myself and we slept fairly comfortably (it was a little cramped, but who doesn't like to snuggle with their dog).Overall I would say this pad is fine for a medium to small sized dog in temps down to about 45F (7C), but any colder than that and you better have a blanket for your dog or be willing to share your bag.ProsVery light weightFairly compact packed sizeConsSlippery fabric slides on tent floorPad is too thin to be used alone in moderately cold temps

Great may for taking with camping or for back of kayak. It folds ok, however a little awkward. I wish it went all the way square and fit better with the rest of the ruffwear camping stuff.

When used as a basemat for the sleeping bag from ruffwear it is freaking amazing and my dog LOVES it.

A little on the bulky side, but beyond that great dog camping/adventure mat for the price. Definitely better than a blanket. Best part is the burrs and stickers don’t stick to it so you don’t have to spend an hr pulling them off the bed OR your dog.

While ruffwear gear might be on the more premium when it comes to pricing. Their products absolutely reflect that same premium in quality, design, and performance. From the approach pack that my dog has been hiking in for almost 7 years and still works 100% the same as if it was new (minus some signs of wear no doubt). To the brush guard which is invaluable. To this pad. Everything ruffwear makes is exeptional. This pad is great for camping to days hanging at the crag. Especially when temperatures drop. Very lightweight yet ruffwear strong. Good size but pack able. Fits my 65lbs pit mix perfectly.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great pad for backpacking
Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2016

Great pad for when I bring my lab backpacking with us. Very light weight, folds up fairly well, wish it was a bit smaller but it still attaches to outside of pack perfect. Have not tried it out on the trail yet, but my dog seems to like laying on it so far, and I believe it will make a great "safe" spot for him under my hammock. The pad is about 1/4 inch thick, enough to be comfy but still pack down to a good size. My dog is a 60lb lab and he fits good enough on this pad. If he stretches out then no the pad is small, but if he curls up like he usually does than I works great. The band that wraps around the pad when folded up is very useful as is the hanging hook on top of the pad for carrying purposes. I will update the review once we go out on a few trips as well.

If you plan on using it for backpacking where temps drop, be sure you pack a small blanket or buy a dog vest to help keep your furry friend warm during the cold nights because this pad won't help much with warmth.

This is a pretty good dog pad for camping with dogs. It is lightweight, folds fairly compact, has an attached strap to keep it compact when folded, and fits inside the bottom of the Ruffwear Highland sleeping bag. The exterior is water resistant. The pad is also easy to fold as it folds accordion style. This was a great purchase to help keep my dogs warm when camping.

This works great for use at the vet. It fits in my tote or backpack and easily unfolds/refolds. I was afraid my Weimaraner might not like it since she prefers softer, fluffier surfaces. But she was happy to lie down on it instead if the cold tile in the vet’s waiting room. I plan to tote it in my backpack when we hike between French Lick and West Baden hotels for use on their porches where we like to relax and eat breakfast or lunch. Perfect!

This is a flimsy, very small, cheap dog pad. All I wanted was a pad for my chihuahuas to lie on while outside on the deck. This thin pad will blow away in a moderate wind, is far smaller than I expected and has a tether sewn to it that just hangs off of it. It is so thin I cannot imagine it can keep a dog warm on the ground let alone concrete. Not worth ten bucks let alone over $20! I can't believe I fell for the photo, which as you can see, shows no perspective. Don't waste your money.

This pad is great! A lot lighter then I would have expected. We carry it everywhere. Super easy to clean and the dog seems to love it. Folds back up really easily.

A bit of caution, it takes a bit of space once folded up - but still great for backpacking trips. When hanging out at the beach, cottage or just outdoors, this is a great piece to have around to add a bit of comfort and keep the dog out off the dirt and keep him as warm as possible.

Reviewed in Germany on July 6, 2019

Anfangs war ich etwas skeptisch ob mein Hund sich auf der Decke wohlfühlt ich kann jedoch abschließend sagen, dass die Oberfläche angenehm weich ist und sehr gut isoliert. Während unserer Huettentour in den Bergen war die Isomatte goldwert. Durch das Umschließungsband lässt sie sich gut außen am Rücksack befestigen. Wir sind nur bei Sonnenschein gewandert. Über die Regendichtheit der Matte kann ich leider nichts berichten.
