Looking for the perfect place to pamper your pup? With its high-end self-serve dog wash, Blissful Bark Dog Wash has everything pet owners need to give their dogs a top-notch spa experience.

“We provide a clean, safe, friendly, fun family environment for you to bathe your four-legged family member,” says Blissful Bark Owner Tiffany Stafford. “No appointments necessary – it’s all first-come-first-served.”

Blissful Bark offers fully-equipped cleaning stations for pups of all sizes. “Our tubs are very large and easy to access,” Tiffany says. “No need to bring anything. We provide shampoo, conditioner, ear cleaner, a large spacious tub with a tie down to keep the dog in, towels, blow dryers, brushes, combs, etc.”

Blissful Bark also provides the tools to groom your own dog. “If you’re adventurous, we provide clippers to give them a haircut,” Tiffany says. “We are there to share some pointers or tips. We do nail clipping for free.”

The best part of all - no mess! “You leave the mess behind for us to clean,” Tiffany says.

In addition to top-of-the-line wash stations, Blissful Bark offers a wide variety of quality pet products.

“We are selective in the brands we bring in,” Tiffany says. “We have a variety of nutritious treats and food. We like to partner with family-owned-and-operated dog food companies. We also have toys and supplements.”

Blissful Bark Dog Wash was established in 2007. Tiffany’s late dog Schutz Angel was the inspiration. Blissful Bark’s mission is to support the health and well-being of pets while providing care and love at every visit.

Since creating the dog wash, Tiffany says she’s been overwhelmed by the community’s support.

“The community response has been amazing. More than I had imagined,” Tiffany says. “I never thought we would be going through life together. They have touched my heart, as I hope we have touched theirs.”
