0 DoggyStyle: On Building a Dog-Friendly Rug

While it has been "The Summer of Miss M and Mr B", we were also able to spend some much needed time working on some other side projects, that also happened to be Miss M and Mr. B specific.
We've put a lot of thought into creating a dog-specific entry at the front of our home, yet our back entry leading directly outside was severely lacking. A small door mat just doesn't suffice when the snow is piled high and two pups need to come inside, remove gear and wait for feet cleaning.
While we tried to pile on rugs to fit our awkward space and two waiting pups, the rugs would just slide around and bunch up.
So we "made" this:

We've always liked how FLOR tiles are pup resistant, and how it's inexpensive to replace a single tile rather than an entire rug if part of it gets dirty or damaged.
The most practical part of the tiles are that you can customize the colors, use them to make any size rug, and they can be cut to accommodate any awkwardly shaped space. E used an X-acto knife to cut the tiles to size and make a striped design.
We thought Miss M was impressed:

But maybe we guessed wrong:
