It’s a great idea. You get a clean dog, and needy people get the help they deserve. For the eighth year in a row, the Lou Bachrodt Auto Mall will be hosting its charity dog wash on June 9th in Rockford, Illinois.
The way that it works is as follows. You bring your dog and enjoy a day of grooming for your four legged friend. It costs $15 for small dogs, $17 for medium ones and $20 for the larger pooches. They’ll be using warm water and they even offer nail trimmings for another $5.
In addition to the doggie baths, dog owners can enjoy a cookout, pet vendors who will be selling all sorts of wares, and rescue organizations. The Kibble Korner Pet Food Pantry will also be on hand, taking in donations of dog and cat food and litter.
All money raised with the charity dog wash will be divided amongst three worthy causes. These include the Noah’s Ark Animal Sanctuary, the PAWS Humane Society and the vet tech program which is at Rockford Career College.
It’s a great idea, benefiting dog owners and those in need, while offering a fun afternoon of sun, food and animal products! For more information, be in touch with junedogwash@gmail.com.
