The van is a fully kitted mobile salon on wheels and provides everything a traditional salon has, including a safe, secure area for dogs to be pampered!
Fitted with a deluxe hydrobath, offering a superior cleaning method to bath dogs compared to traditional methods, only high quality professional grade products are used ensuring the best for your dog.
Behind the bath is a 250L water tank, meaning you do not need to supply water for me as the tank feeds the bath as I need it.
Internally there is also a doggy door guard, meaning when the sliding door is opened ready for me to come out once the groom is complete, I can pop my head out the door to make sure I won’t be coming into contact with any other dogs, and is a extra security step in ensuring no escapes! (I always groom with the sliding door closed as well)
It also has a electric table fitted and secured to the floor, meaning there is zero wobbliness, easier for large breeds to step onto (Even smaller breeds often jump up on their own!) and dogs can step from the bath straight onto the table, which means a easier routine for them. I can also keep the table low for dogs that are a bit nervous of the table or heights, and adjust the height as need be.
Worried about hot weather? No need! It has a roof top air-conditioning unit which keeps the van at a lovely temperature safe for the dogs, and gives them a bit of rest bite in the hot weather!
Worried about cold weather? Also no need! The van is equipped with a diesel heater which not only heats the van, but also heats the towel cupboard, which means after the bath there is a lovely warm towel to wrap up your dog in! It also has a frost guard so in cold weather if the grooming section gets a little chilly, the diesel heater will automatically kick in overnight warming the van up to a nice temperature, so whether your appointment is first or last thing, the van is toasty warm (and no frozen pipes for me!)
The most boring part of the van (for owners and dogs) is all my cupboard storage, but where else am I going to keep all the products and most importantly the doggy snacks?!
Why is a Hydrobath Superior?
You have seen me mention the hydrobath and may be wondering why is it superior to traditional bathing techniques? I shall explain:
Superior Cleaning: Using a hydrobath offers a gentle but effective and therapeutic massage whilst the pressurised shampoo spray penetrates deep into the dog’s coat removing dirt, dead skin and dead hair, even on thick and double coated breeds, without the need to scrub which means no coat breakage / damage for a healthier coat less likely to matt and tangle up.
Therapeutic Massage: The consistent, warm, pressured water acts as a massage, relieving muscle aches and arthritis and improves circulation which helps promote healthier skin and coat
Skin Condition Management: They are effective at helping treat skin conditions like dermatitis, dandruff, and yeasty skin by thoroughly cleansing, exfoliating, and ensuring shampoo treatments reach the skin.
Eco-Friendly: Hydrobath’s are more efficient and effective than traditional bath methods making them more environmentally friendly
