Although the concept of a self-service dog wash has expanded in the past few years, nobody, up to now, has been able to guarantee such a full-scale service the way we do it. Wash Dog is a really innovative idea that guarantees an all inclusive 24/7 service. Every single operation can be carried out impeccably and in complete autonomy by dog and cat owners, in a safe and functional environment, equipped with the newest technologies.

There are many reasons to choose Wash Dog. Just to name a few:

• We guarantee a 24/7 service: we are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week

• All the products you will find in a Wash Dog store have been carefully selected: produced by a specialised company, they are natural, designed for frequent use, allergen-free, safe for the environment, biodegradable, gentle and with a neutral ph. Their competitive price allows us to charge relatively low retail prices, so we can grant our affiliates a higher profit
• We assign our management software to our affiliates with a loan for use solution

The Wash Dog pet grooming course

The Franchisor makes available to all Wash Dog affiliates a pet grooming course to learn professional grooming techniques. This course, directed by selected experts, lasts for about two months. It is divided into two parts: a theoretical module where all the basic techniques will be explained, and a practical one, where each participant will try to wash and groom different kinds of breeds.
In the end of the course each participant will receive a certificate of merit. It shall allow the participant to offer professional pet grooming services inside his/her store.
The demand for pet groomers is very high and it will make the service more and more competitive, facilitating business growth.
