Ah, America. Where people want to have pets but are too lazy to take care of them.

Apparently it’s the same in Japan.

Automatic Dog Wash

Poor dog. I used to work at a kennel, and just dumping water on a dog will not get it clean- you have to get in there with your hands and really scrub those suckers. Not to mention that using your hands tends to traumatize a dog less than sticking it in a box and dumping water on it.

Plus, if you never wash your dog yourself, it will never slip away and race through the house trailing soapsuds, so you miss out on good pictures/video/stories/movie scenes.
