5 Signs It's Time to Book a Professional Dog Wash
There’s nothing quite like the joy our canine companions bring to our lives. They greet us with wagging tails, unconditional love, and an endless willingness to be by our side. As pet parents, we do everything to ensure their happiness and health, and that includes keeping them clean and comfortable. But how do you know when it’s time to book a professional dog wash? Here are five tell-tale signs that it might be time to treat your pup to a spa day with The Pooch Mobile.
1. Your Pup is Smelling a Bit Too “Natural"
There’s no denying that we all love our dogs, but let’s face it—sometimes they develop an unmistakable "doggy" odor that no amount of snuggles can overlook. Whether it’s from a muddy romp at the park with their playmates or a mystery smell they picked up on their latest adventure, a professional dog wash can eliminate those odors and leave your pup smelling fresh.
At The Pooch Mobile, we use specially formulated shampoos that are hypoallergenic, environmentally friendly, and PH-balanced to not agitate your dog’s skin. Your pup will not only smell great but feel great too! We also deodorize and use aromatherapy rinses to ensure that they smell amazing when they are all dry.
2. Their Coat is Looking Dull or Matted
A dog’s coat is a great indicator of their overall health. If your pup’s fur has lost its luster or you are beginning to notice matting, it’s a clear sign they need some extra TLC. Regular professional grooming removes dirt, debris, and loose fur, promoting a shiny, healthy coat. If you have a dog that sheds a lot, regular grooming can help with that as well.
Matting, in particular, can be extremely uncomfortable and even painful for dogs. Our professional groomers are experienced in handling these situations gently, ensuring your furry friend leaves our mobile spa feeling like royalty. They will even get a nail trim to prevent overgrowth, curling, or splitting.
3. Your Dog is Scratching More Than Usual
Excessive scratching may be an indicator of dry skin, allergies, or pesky fleas. While your first step should always be consulting a vet for persistent issues, a soothing professional wash can help ease minor skin irritations.
Our mobile units have pre-heated water tanks to ensure that your dog is washed in fresh, warm water. Our hydrobaths and equipment are sanitized between each dog, preventing cross-contamination. If your pup has been itchy lately, a luxurious bath can definitely help.
4. You’re Too Busy to DIY
It’s no secret that life gets busy—between work, family, and everything in between, it’s easy to let dog washing fall down on the to-do list. But skipping regular washes can lead to build-up on your dog’s skin and coat, making them uncomfortable and more prone to skin issues.
Let us take the stress out of keeping your pooch clean. Our convenient mobile dog washing service comes straight to your doorstep, saving you time while providing top-notch care for your dog.
5. It’s Been a While Since Their Last Spa Day
How long has it been since your dog enjoyed a professional washing? If you can’t remember, it’s probably time to schedule one! Regular dog washing is essential for maintaining their hygiene, preventing skin problems, and even reducing shedding.
We recommend booking a wash every 4-6 weeks for most dogs, but this can vary based on your dog’s breed, coat type, and activity level.
