You already know the answer to, “Who’s a good girl (or boy)?” But do you know how often you should wash your dog? Or clean her ears? Or if reservations are required at Scrubbin’ Pup? We’ve got answers to these and other frequently asked questions.
Generally speaking, dogs need baths when they have a noticeable odor, you can see dirt in their coat or after swimming. But there are also several other factors to consider, including:
Many dogs benefit from weekly washes, while others may be better off with a less frequent regimen. It is best to speak with your vet for recommendations specific to your breed and its lifestyle.
It is important to use shampoos that are specifically formulated for dogs. Don’t use human shampoo. And please, please, please don’t use dishwashing detergent!
Scrubbin’ Pup provides trouble-free bubbles — for free! Our top-quality shampoo and conditioner promotes a healthy PH balance by gently cleansing your canine’s coat without drying out the skin.
Yes! If your dog has sensitive skin, sheds excessively or has another condition that requires a medicated shampoo you are welcome to use it in our dog-wash stations. Ditto for all the posh pooches out there who already have a favorite brand that keeps their fur fashionably floofy without the frizzies
Please note: The shampoo/conditioner is dispensed through the water nozzle so it needs to be set to the rinse cycle if using your own shampoo/conditioner.
Good hygiene habits will keep your pup happy and healthy. Experts typically recommend weekly ear cleaning, nail clipping, coat combing and conditioning. Frequent teeth brushing — at least two or three times per week — is also important.
Scrubbin’ Pup has all the supplies you need to care for your dog between washes. We even have mouthwash. (Because dog breath … ew!) Check out How Scrubbin’ Pup Works for a complete list.
Oof. Our hearts go out to the poor pooch, but we currently do not allow dogs that have been sprayed by skunks to be washed at Scrubbin’ Pup. The strong odor lingers throughout the day, creating an unpleasant experience for other members. We want to maintain a comfortable environment for all dogs and their owners, as well as the businesses next to us. Thank you for understanding.
Find us next to Macey’s in Lehi. The address is 785 East 200 South #4.
Scrubbin’ Pup offers 24/7 access through an app. If you do not have a smartphone, email woof@scrubbinpup.com for alternate access options.
We have two elevated tubs; both are generously sized. There are no dog weight limits or measurement restrictions for use, but only one animal is allowed in a tub at a time. Additional dogs can be secured in the designated space next to the tub you are using
No. Our self-serve dog wash operates on a first-come, first-served basis. If both dog washing stations are in use, please make yourself comfortable in our waiting area where you can surf the subway, crush some candy or try to connect the purple words first.
Single-wash tokens last for 10 minutes. You are welcome to use as many tokens as needed to clean your canine companion, but please be mindful of other dog owners who are waiting.
The first rule of Scrub Club is NOT “don’t talk about Scrub Club.” We want you to tell your friends, family, neighbors and everyone you pass at the park what a treat it is to bathe and groom your dog at Scrubbin’ Pup. To make it an enjoyable experience for everyone, we ask that members and single washers follow a few rules.
If a non-member or patron who has not paid is let in to Scrubbin’ Pup, the person who let them in will be responsible for payment.
Please try to keep washes to 15 minutes and total washing/drying/grooming time to 30 minutes per dog.
Thank you! We value our members and are happy to answer any additional questions you may have. Email: woof@scrubbinpup.com to get in touch.
