What is a Wash Dog?

A Wash Dog is a self-service dog washing station that doesn't require an appointment. Located in the Intermarché Carnac parking lot, this outdoor station lets you wash your pet quickly and easily.

Everything is provided on-site: a secure, non-slip tub, warm water, dog-specific shampoo, a thorough rinse, and blow-drying. All you need to bring is your dog—and maybe a towel.

How Does It Work?

Step 1: Installation

Your dog enters the tub through a wide door. The non-slip floor prevents slipping. Chains keep your dog securely in place during the wash.

Step 2: Thorough Wash

The program includes:

• Pre-wash: lukewarm water to wet the coat

• Shampoo: pH-balanced, hypoallergenic product

• Rinsing: Warm, clean water removes all residue

• Drying: gentle-temperature forced-air

Duration: 8–15 minutes, depending on the dog’s size and coat. A medium-sized dog takes about 10 minutes.

All Dog Breeds Welcome

Wash Dog welcomes dogs of all sizes:

• Petits chiens (< 10kg) : Yorkshire, Chihuahua, Bichon

• Medium-sized dogs (10–30 kg): Beagle, Cocker Spaniel, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel

• Large dogs (> 30 kg): Labrador, Golden Retriever, German Shepherd

All coat types: short-haired, long-haired, curly, and double-coated. Customizable programs to suit your needs.

Please note: Aggressive dogs or those with severe anxiety are not recommended for their own well-being.

Convenient for Vacationers

In Carnac, with its beaches, dunes, and coastal trails, dogs get dirty quickly. The Wash Dog is the perfect solution:

After Beaumer Beach

Embedded sand, irritating salt, and the smell of the ocean—gone in 10 minutes. Your dog returns to the mobile home clean and comfortable.

After the Coastal Trails

Mud, sticky grass, dust—a thorough rinse restores the coat.

Regular Maintenance

For a stay of 1–2 weeks, maintain good hygiene without any hassle. This is especially appreciated by campers, as it helps keep the restrooms clean.
