they&#8217;re designed so that you don&#8217;t have to lean over, and your dog can walk right up!\u00a0 We also have an area where you can hook your dog into the tub so you don&#8217;t have to hold them in place while trying to scrub them down.\u00a0 No shampoo?\u00a0 No problem!\u00a0 We make sure that we keep a stockpile of luxury shampoo on hand to get pooches squeaky clean.<\/p>\n<h3>What About My Now Wet Dog?<\/h3>\n<p>Nobody likes a wet dog, except for maybe the wet dogs themselves.\u00a0 Washing your dog at home means that when you&#8217;re done, you&#8217;re toweling them off and they&#8217;re running out of the bathroom as fast as they can to jump all over their furniture and rub their wet fur onto everything you own.\u00a0 Not the greatest experience!\u00a0 When bringing your dog to Dogtopia for our DIY dog bathing services, though, you can dry your pup off here.\u00a0 Keep in mind that dogs with long and thick fur may take much longer to dry off.\u00a0 Bring towels to cover your car seats just in case you don&#8217;t want to stick around long enough to ensure that they&#8217;re completely dry!<\/p>\n<h3>Can You Wash My Dog For Me?<\/h3>\n<p>Absolutely!\u00a0 Call our location to make sure we have availability, as we book dog washes with our doggy day care clients first.\u00a0 Or, book a day of doggy day care and schedule your dog wash for the end of the day!\u00a0 You&#8217;ll pick up your pup after a day of play and they&#8217;ll be super clean and fresh!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Imagine, if you will, giving a fully grown St Bernard a bath in your tub at your home.
