Is this a water barrier? If a small amount of liquid (like what might come out of a 4 pound dog) were on top, will it seep through?

As best as I can tell, no. I tested with a small amount of water and it didn't leak through.

The outer part is, yes. It has some sort of absorbent padding in the inside, so the moisture wicks away from the dog's skin, but the outer material is cotton, so it always seeps through. Even a very small amount of urine will dampen the outer part of the wrap.

I think so. It has a hole in the bottom that you screw into a platform. I tested putting water in it and it didn't seem to leak through.

It puts a barrier between whatever goes on the wee wee pad and the floor. Sometimes the pee leaks under the wee wee pad, so this Simple Solutions pad keeps it from doing that. The poo won't leak thru.

it holds water just fine. it is a travel bowl. it will leak some. I only fill the bowl as needed. when the dog is thirsty i fill it up. when hes done I dump whats left (mostly slobber) out and wait til hes thirsty again. if you want a bowl you can fill once and leave alone, this is not for you. if you need something like that a regular bowl would be a better fit.

It could get wet . I have a small dog that tinkles when he greets people . I used a panty liner in it .

Water does not soak into it. My dog peed in it. It stayed on top. I just dried it with a paper towel and washed it.

Well, it's made out of a foam-like material, so it would become damp. You might be able to pull it off though if you covered it with a plastic bag and taped it up so the water didn't get in.

Since it's quite large it absorbs quite a bit of liquid. It will absorb my medium dog's pee quite well.

Yes it is but because it is a barrier water won't drain through as fast as it would if it weren't there. I don't know about both directions as I've only ever put it down in one and I've not had a case of water bubbling up anywhere to know.

Water will not go through the plastic. However, water may get under the plastic since it does not have a base to it.

yes, rain (more than a mist or sprinkle) will come through. It is not waterproof like a tarp.

I assume you meant is it impermeable? I'm quite sure it would not be if immersed in water but as far as some rain hitting it you would be ok...I returned it because it was smaller than I needed so i really didn't have a chance to test it.

This item is made very well, the only thing that you can't tell from the picture is there is a cutout hole on both sides. My dog is a 70 lb Lab, when she sits on it sinks somewhat, so she sits partially underwater. Hope it helps somewhat

Should work. It washes well and fluids don't go through. If the dog just leaks a bit rather than letting it all go at once you should be fine. If the volume is high, you may get pooling and puddles.

Probably not. I have found that if a large quantity of fluid gets on it, it will soak through fairly quickly. We bought it to protect our dog's bed (she's incontinent), and when she has an accident, we have to remove it immediately or it will soak through to the mattress.

No it would be fine, but hopefully you won't leave your pets without water!
