Alum Chine Dog Wash is a self-service dog wash station on the seafront at Alum Chine in Bournemouth, run by Polygon Pets. It's designed for no-fuss use after beach walks, with no booking required – just turn up, pop your sandy or salty dog inside and sort them out before the car journey home.
The station sits right by the beach frontage, making it especially handy if you've been exploring the shoreline with a dog who's made the most of the sea. It's a practical stop for Bournemouth dog owners who want to rinse off the worst of the coastal chaos before heading back through town.
Self-service means you're in control of the whole wash and the location keeps things simple when you're already carrying leads, bags and a damp towel. It's the kind of facility that saves your upholstery and your patience in equal measure.
