A breakthrough in Dog Tub design and construction! Professional quality tubs that offer an innovative, attractive, practical alternative to stainless steel or other materials.
Wait until you see the unique features and what is included with these tubs, and for hundreds of dollars less than other premium tubs!
"Thank you for the Tub. It is great, I love it. Great quality and service. My grooming trailer is almost complete so I'll send you some pics with your tub in it. Your company is highly recommended by me."
"The tubs came today and are beautiful!"
"They are even better quality than I expected. I'm really glad I went with them instead of stainless."
"...My husband and I both want to say a big THANK YOU to you and the company that makes the tub. We are so very pleased with the workmanship. I love the way it is so easy for the dogs to enter into the tub. The ramp is not scary at all to them....The plumber was even impressed with it and my landlord was also. It was worth the wait. Thanks for everything you did for me. If you ever need anyone to give their testimony about the tub I will be more than glad to do so."
"The tubs are absolutely beautiful! Honestly I was a little scared when I was ordering them, up until I opened the boxes!!!
...they are as solid as can be--I have no regrets and would recommend them over stainless for sure!! Once we get our place set up and running, I'll send you some pics so you can put some up and show people how nice they really are...the pictures on the site are good, but don't do them justice!"
"I like the tubs, they are bigger than I thought they would be--the color is good too."

Material Characteristics
- Constructed of durable, high-density polyethylene that is a full 1/2" thick, making it possibly the strongest tub on the market!
- Has excellent impact resistance and does not dent. In fact, neither hard blows with a 2x4 nor dropping from considerable heights caused any structural damage in tests!
- Doesn't have the sterile look of stainless steel, and there is no metal noise from objects such as sprayer heads, hoses, doors, dryer nozzles, etc. that can spook dogs and irritate people.
- Will not, rust, corrode, or tarnish. Stain and odor resistant.
- Excellent resistance to most chemicals, including chlorine bleach, ammonia, alcohol, and most acids.
- Molecular makeup of material makes surfaces even easier to rinse off and keep clean than stainless steel.
- Resists scum/bacteria buildup, as practically nothing sticks well to it. Even permanent marker, paint, glues, construction adhesives, caulking, and silicone come off after drying for 24 hours!
How Are Poly Tubs Different From Others?
- Splash Walls: Higher than other tubs to better contain water and hair.
- Mat: Good footing is extremely important! This 1/2" thick rubber mat attaches to tub floor to prevent sliding, yet is easily lifted for cleaning. Provides secure, comfortable footing for dogs to stand on.
Mat also allows water and debris to run off so animal isn't standing in it. Eliminates need for expensive floor grate, and provides easier to clean, safer surface (e.g., no holes for claws to get caught in).
Space around mat contributes to good drainage and eliminates problem other tubs can have with hair being trapped between tub and grate.
- Double Drains: Provides twice the drainage of other tubs.
- Restraint Bars: Bulges allow secure attachment to various points for better positioning of dogs. Large diameter makes releasing and moving restraint much easier.
- Ramp: Ramp can be used as a small-dog platform inside tub, as well as a grooming or accessory table outside of tub! (See images above)
Unlike other ramps, this one has 2" high sides. This not only makes it extremely strong, it also helps dogs feel more comfortable and secure navigating it, as their concern they might step off the edge is reduced.
Ramp angle of incline is not steep. This is a major factor determining how readily dogs will use a ramp.
Ramp is covered with rubber matting that is a full 3/8" thick for sure footing!
Ramp can easily be removed as needed, simply by lifting.
- Door: Opening is uniquely shaped to allow easier entry and exit of dogs.
Door is quiet, and seals well to keep water in -- probably believe better than any other tub door on the market.
- Price: Considerably less expensive than other premium tubs.
Shipping cost can also be significantly lower (due to lighter weight and smaller package since they are shipped with legs unattached).
Quality Construction
- All joints are fully welded and watertight, so no caulking is used. Joints are as strong as the material itself.
- Sturdy legs with adjustable, non-skid levelers.
- Bolts and nuts, leg levelers, etc. are stainless steel.
- These tubs are covered by a full one-year warranty to be free of defects in materials and workmanship.

More Comments
"I like that it is made of poly instead of stainless steel. The industrial look and feel is less with the poly....I think it is sized right for a home grooming room as well as a grooming business.
I think the style is great for professional groomers....Seems to be able to hold a lot of weight and you are correct about how easy to keep clean and sanitized. There is not much in this world that will stick to poly.
Your pricing is much better than the stainless steel [tubs]...."
"The material sounds like it’s strong as kryptonite, and much better looking than stainless steel."
"The poly tubs look really nice - they seem to be a better price point than the stainless steel and just as durable and long lasting (plus they don't look as 'sterile' as the stainless)."
"Your tubs look great, sturdy, easy to clean, attractive, and the value is great....I hope everyone sees the value in your attachment package..."
"They look good! I think you have a great idea."
"I saw the tubs and I thought they looked great....The only complaint I have about the stainless steel is that they
make a lot of noise when the dog moves around and the dogs sometimes get spooked, so the ploy tubs would be great for that."
"I did take a look at the new tubs and was very impressed!...Many people (myself included) complain about the noise from the ss tubs, so the new one's look like a great alternative. Ease of cleaning is another plus - it sounds like the manufacturer has taken that into account."
"Those tubs look awesome."
"The tub arrived today and it is beautiful!"
