What is a self-service laundry for dogs?

Tips for the First Visit
- Come at a quiet time — weekday mornings are usually quiet
- Bring a hungry dog — it’s easier to calm down with a snack
- Don’t get excited — the dog feels your emotions
- Praise and reward the dog after the bath
- For young dogs: the first visit should be short (only washing the face)
