Using a self-serve dog wash in Polson
A self-serve dog wash like The Barking Lot gives you a raised tub, warm water, shampoo, and a high-velocity dryer so you can bathe your dog yourself — usually for a flat fee well below a full-service groom, and without the mess or back strain of using your own bathtub. You bring the dog; the station supplies the equipment and cleans up after.
Expect to pay from $25 per bath here, and walk-ins are welcome, so you can stop in during open hours. Bring a towel and any specialty shampoo your dog needs.
