Everything You Need to Know About Dog Washing Stations
Do you have a fur baby in your home? Then you’ll love dog washing stations! They are a dog owner's dream, as they are useful, convenient and offer a cleaner way to wash your furry friend than using a sink or bathroom.
The team at Cesario & Co is here to show you different dog washing station ideas to consider when deciding to create your very own pet spa.
Let's start with the basics.
What is a dog washing station?
A dog washing station is equipped with everything you need to keep your dog clean in their own dedicated space. Your dog can sit or stand in the washing area, which offers an accessible shower head, a spacious bathing area and even stairs or ramps to help them with ease of access. Whether you have a small, medium, or large dog, the washing station is customizable in size and design to suit you and your dog’s needs.
What are the benefits of a dog washing station?
If you've ever washed a dog, you know it can be quite the challenge. A dog washing station built into the design of your home is a great way to simplify this process for you and your family, as well as maintain the cleanliness of your home.
A Convenient Location
Instead of walking your muddy dog through your home to get to the sink or bathtub, you can install a built-in dog washing station right beside your door. This helps prevent the spread of dirt and mess throughout your home. With that goal in mind, the washing stations are often incorporated into a mudroom or laundry room which typically provide direct access from the outside.
Organization
Next, a dog washing station is an organizer's dream! When you have a built-in dog washing station, you also have a designated dog area, where you can keep all of your fur baby’s grooming supplies, treats, leashes, toys and other items. This keeps your home more organized and all pet necessities stored conveniently.
Ease of Use
Third, it is much easier to clean your dog. Depending on the size of your dog, you may have to arch your back to reach your dog in a shower, tub or sink, which is uncomfortable and tiring. With a dog washing station, you have a place that is made specifically for pets, so it is much easier to navigate and use. This makes washing a more fun and convenient experience for both you and your furry friend.
Comfort
Every dog has their own unique needs, and, accordingly, built-in dog wash stations are customizable to any size. This can make it more comfortable for your dog, particularly for medium to large sized dogs as they require more space to move around.
The Right Height
Lastly, dog washing stations can be made in a way that makes it much easier for your dog to get in and out without needing to be lifted. This is especially handy if you have a large and heavy dog.
These are a few of the many possibilities. You can customize your dog washing station any way that suits you and your furry friend best.
