About three years ago we adopted our dog, Yogi from a local animal shelter. 

Our family has wanted a dog for years, but the idea of buying a dog from a pet store didn’t feel right.

We wanted to adopt a dog that needed a home and love. Yogi happened to be the one dog that came to us looking for love.

It didn’t take long for him to become a part of our family. At the same time it took awhile for us to get a bathroom schedule for him. In the mean time he had a couple of accidents that needed to be cleaned up. Which we did.

After some time of having Yogi we realized the dog needed to be cleaned. He needed a good bath with something nice smelling.

We did consider giving him a bath ourselves, but that didn’t sound like a good idea. Knowing our family it would be a disaster. So we decided to take him to PetSmart.

Yes, I know that costs money. We would rather spend the money at PetSmart knowing our dog is going to get a good cleaning, teeth brushing, nail clipping and all that good stuff.

We did try to clean our dog once. ONCE. That was enough to let us know never again! We took him to a local car wash that also has a place to wash dogs. That was an interesting experience to say the least. It ended with him getting an ear infection.

After that one time my husband and I agreed for now on we take our dog to PetSmart. This way the dog gets his grooming, we get a clean dog and everyone is happy.
