Japanese laundry opens its doors to dogs

 Do you ever find that you’re dog always ends up muddy after walks and it’s always really hard to wash them? Well, washing you’re dog after a muddy walk could get a lot easier if you were Japanese!

 It’s just like like a laundry for clothes, but instead of the machines cleaning you’re best outfits, they clean you’re dogs!

 Every day about 10 dogs go through the machine. Big dogs cost £20 and small dogs cost £10.

 All the dogs get washed in warm water, then soapy water, then warm water again to get rid of all the smells and fleas.

 The owner of the laundry, Takayoshi, reckons the dogs love it, saying: "I think from the dog's point of view, it feels really good to be washed like this."
