Among the newest amenities for residents is a Dog Washing Station (or area) at your community. Many of us don’t have the space for it. But if you like the idea, ask your local Petco if they have a Self Serve Dog Wash. For just $10, they supply the shampoo, conditioner, towels and aprons. The tub height is designed for your ergonomic comfort and the tubs hold pint-size to super-size pups.

Call your local Petco or visit

unleashedby.petco.com/pet_wash.aspx for details.

Petco also offers space for Pet Parties if your residents are interested in Partying Like An Animal!
