Million Dollar Dog’s Self-Service Dog Wash offers you a place to wash and groom your dog, while keeping the price down and the mess to a minimum!!
A Convenient, Low-Cost Alternative to Bathing at Home or Going to the Groomer
Many pet owners would agree that keeping the family dog clean can be a chore in itself, not to mention the messy clean-up afterwards. When the four-legged family member looks like something the cat dragged in or is trailing an odor reminiscent of yesterday’s garbage, what do you do?
During warmer weather, you could hose your dog off in the back yard with freezing cold water, trying to get him to stay still long enough to scrub on some shampoo, all the while creating mud puddles and ruining the grass. Then, after that he runs through the mud puddles and rolls in the wet grass – you’re right back where you started!! With a stinky, dirty dog – soaking wet, to boot!! OR, if you’re feeling extra ambitious, you could wrestle him into the bathtub, make a soggy mess of you, the house, and every towel you own. Then after all that, you could decide to just take him to the groomer, requiring figuring out in advance when to fit it into your crazy schedule, two trips back and forth and an unbudgeted cost. However, there is an easier, lower-cost option that you may not be aware of: The Self-Service Dog Wash.
Self service dog wash businesses have been around for years, primarily in larger cities, but not all pet owners are aware of their existence or benefits. “What exactly IS a dog wash?”, you might ask. Tara Pellegrino, owner of Million Dollar Dog, Inc., a full-service grooming spa in Belmont, North Carolina, explains it simply as “a car wash for dogs”. This service is geared mainly to the ‘Do-It Yourself’ owners and those with larger dogs who want to keep their costs for a squeaky clean dog down. It is also for those who like their dog bathed in between grooms who may just want to enjoy the bonding experience that ‘bath-time’ can bring!”
Since most dog washes are small, independently-owned businesses, facilities and services will vary from shop to shop. Our facility offers two waist-high grooming tubs with warm water sprayers; waterproof aprons; towels; combs and brushes; high velocity, hand-held air dryers and a choice of pet shampoos. We also offer products to enhance your self-bathing experience such as Milk Baths and Blueberry Facials, as well as the assistance of our professional groomers for teeth brushing, nail trims, or feet, face and ear hair trimming. Basically, we provide everything you’ll need to keep your VIP (Very Important Pup) smelling fresh and looking great, without all of the hassles and messes of bathing at home, or the expense of the groomer doing it for you.
You are welcome to bring your dog(s) in anytime during our Spa Hours (please see the home page of our website at www.MillionDollarDogInc.com for our hours or call us at 704.266.4137). No appointment is necessary!! We look forward to assisting you with your pet care needs!
