Jollyes is offering free dog washes to customers on Wednesday (June 24) as temperatures are expected to climb across the UK.
The service will be available at stores that feature the company’s Wash & Go cleaning stations, which will be set on free vend for the day. The units are installed at the retailer’s branches in Bolton, Colchester, Enfield, Harlow, Newport (Isle of Wight), Plymouth, Scunthorpe, Selby, Totton and Waterlooville.
Temperatures are forecasted to reach 25C and upwards in some parts of the UK on Wednesday, and Jollyes has launched ‘Operation Cool Dog’, which includes giving customers a number of tips to help keep dogs cool during a heatwave. In addition, staff have been tasked with ensuring all outdoor water bowls are topped up so visiting dogs can hydrate easily.
Jollyes’ Phil Turner-Naylor said: “A-paw-llingly high temperatures are a real challenge for our four-legged friends – and keeping them cool and hydrated is vital.
“That why Operation Cool Dog is in place, helping the whole family – with two legs or four – keep cool and comfortable, without breaking the bank.”
