A few years ago I lived in a rural village and there I had a dog, doberman mix, and also cats, of course when you came home with the dog after a rainy walk, there was a towel waiting in the hallway, next to the entrance but if a 45 kg energetic creature decides that shaking it out, running into the house and jumping onto the sofa is enough before you can reach for the towel, make method with the towel often turns out to be questionable.
Never problems of this with cats, only that cats and dogs together are a terrible team (Cats know how to open the refrigerator and the dog has enough strength to do it.)
Nothing hits as good as a cold rainy dog walk. Love it.
Yes, entering with the wet and dirty dog after this in your living room.
That’s why every dog owner has some old towels next to the door. Seems like a degree of preparedness beyond the understanding of the cat person.

I could see the cat manipulating the dog into opening the fridge for them.
Exact, if you have cat and dog, you know that the cat is always the boss.
