Geometry makes 36 dog tea towels covering nine dogs. Each one comes four ways: a single embroidered dog near the hem, a repeating all-over print, a looser playful version with sunglasses and bones, and a simple outline pattern. The embroidered towels are a quiet detail in a neutral kitchen. The all-over prints are the ones guests spot from the doorway.
Every towel is 18" x 30" and $18, made from post-consumer recycled materials and woven from Geoweave™ fabric that holds up to seven times its weight in liquid and dries fast between uses. Start with the dog you own, then pick the design that suits your kitchen.
Top Dog Tea Towels at Geometry
1. Golden Retriever Tea Towels
Nobody is happier to see you than a golden retriever, and that sunny, wags-at-everything character comes through in all four designs. The gingham Golden Retriever tea towel is the sweetest of them, a single embroidered golden in a cowboy hat and bandana on a soft check, in Oat or Sage. For the whole pack, the Sage Golden Retriever tea towel repeats them across the cloth, several in pink and red bandanas.
Two more to pick from, and they sit at opposite ends. The Golden Retriever tea towel print draws them in sunglasses on Poppy or Storm, a bold splash of color for a plain kitchen. The line-drawn Golden Retriever tea towel keeps things calm with clean outlines in Aloe or Rain.
2. Labrador Tea Towels
Half the fun of a Lab towel is matching it to the dog lying on your kitchen floor. The single Black Lab tea towel comes in Black, Chocolate, and Yellow, a small embroidered silhouette in a blue collar sitting low on the cloth. The Chocolate Lab tea towel print offers the same three coats plus a multi version, and covers the towel in tennis balls, bones, bowls, and the occasional crown, which is a fair picture of a Lab's ideal day.
Both remaining designs make a lovely second towel to rotate with the first. The Lab tea towel in Poppy is the boldest of the four, dogs in sunglasses and red collars on a strong red ground. The outlined Labrador tea towel is the quieter one, clean line drawings on Aloe or Rain.
3. French Bulldog Tea Towels
You can spot a Frenchie across a whole park by the ears alone, which is exactly what makes the Frenchie face tea towel such a joy: rows and rows of bat-eared faces with pink ears, in Sky or Vanilla. The French Bulldog tea towel with bones is livelier still, with polka dot bibs and bones scattered across Lime or Sky.
Two more designs keep things softer. The outlined Frenchie tea towel sketches the same dogs in outline, a few of them in sunglasses, and the minimal French Bulldog tea towel pares it right back to plain outlines in Aloe or Rain.
4. Dachshund Tea Towels
Doxies feel the cold more than most, so plenty of them spend winter in a sweater, and these designs clearly know it. The striped Dachshund tea towel has a single embroidered doxie in a blue sweater on thin blue stripes. The Navy Dachshund tea towel puts the whole group in blue and white knits, and also comes in Vanilla.
The Doxie tea towel print swaps the sweaters for red collars and yellow tennis balls on Poppy or Storm. The outlined Dachshund tea towel keeps that unmistakable long shape and nothing else, sketched in Aloe or Rain.
5. Corgi Tea Towels
At $18 a corgi tea towel towel works for a housewarming, a birthday, or a holiday exchange, and the single Corgi tea towel is the most giftable of the group: one small embroidered corgi in a scarf, in Blue or Pink. For someone who would happily go bigger, the sketched Corgi tea towel print covers the whole towel, some of the dogs in red bandanas, on Poppy or Storm.
The other two come down to brightness. The Pink Corgi tea towel is the cheeriest, cartoon corgis in pink bandanas and blue shirts across a white ground. The minimal Corgi tea towel is the understated one, line drawings in Aloe or Rain.
6. Poodle Tea Towels
All those curls make a poodle one of the most fun dogs to draw, and these four make the most of it. The polka dot Poodle tea towel sets a single embroidered poodle in a bow against dots, in Black, Brown, or White, the same three colors poodles come in. The repeating Poodle tea towel print uses those three again, with poodles in collars across the cloth.
Both remaining designs are printed rather than embroidered. The Poodle tea towel in Storm is the loosest drawing of the four, poodles scattered over a dotted background. The line-drawn Poodle tea towel is the simplest, outlines in Aloe or Rain.
7. Doodle Tea Towels
Ask ten doodle owners what their dog is and you will get ten different answers, which is half the fun of them. These designs stay general enough to suit whichever curly, cheerful mix you ended up with. The gingham Doodle tea towel is one embroidered brown doodle in a blue bandana on blue and white check. The Doodle tea towel print repeats a cartoon version in Powder Blue or Vanilla.
How a doodle looks depends mostly on the last haircut, and the final two cover both ends. The Doodle tea towel in Poppy is the shaggiest, with dogs in sunglasses and red hats over a polka dot ground. The line-drawn Doodle tea towel is the freshly trimmed version in Aloe or Rain.
8. Pug Tea Towels
A pug will follow you into the kitchen, settle six inches from your feet, and stay there until you leave. The single Pug tea towel captures that perfectly: one embroidered pug sitting near the hem, in Black or Fawn. The Black Pug tea towel print scales it up into a repeat of pug silhouettes and bones, in the same two coats.
The last two are the busiest and the simplest. The Pug tea towel in Poppy puts pugs in sunglasses and red scarves carrying bones, a lively pick for a kitchen that can take some color. The outlined Pug tea towel is a plain outline pattern in Aloe or Rain.
9. Bulldog Tea Towels
Those wrinkles and that low, wide stance are what every one of these designs leans into, and red plaid runs through the group to warm it up. The embroidered Bulldog tea towel keeps it to one small dog in a red checkered bandana on plain white. The repeating Bulldog tea towel print covers the cloth in cartoon bulldogs in red plaid, in White or Black.
The last two step away from the plaid entirely. The Bulldog tea towel in Storm puts the dogs in colorful sunglasses on a beige ground, and also comes in Poppy. The line-drawn Bulldog tea towel is the most understated, simple outlines in Aloe or Rain.
Frequently Asked Questions About Choosing The Right Dog Tea Towel
Which dog breeds are available as tea towels?
Nine: Bulldog, Corgi, Dachshund, Doodle, French Bulldog, Golden Retriever, Labrador, Poodle, and Pug. Each comes in four designs, and most designs come in two or more color options.
Are dog tea towels absorbent enough for drying dishes?
Geometry dog tea towels hold up to seven times their weight in liquid and dry quickly between uses, so they handle glassware, dishes, and counters like any full-size kitchen towel. The flat weave leaves no lint on glass.
How many should I keep in rotation?
Two per dog works well. Hang the embroidered design on the oven bar as the one on display, and keep a printed one by the sink for hands, counters, and drying up.
