I realized that I didn't specify the size of the wash tub. It's actually a small stadium shaped stock tank that is 12" tall. It's longer than the stand, which allows the entire back end to be cut off and part of the front. That would allow it to be washed out. That being said, my concern for several years was that the top is wider than the stand and I may have to alter it, but it would provide dry feet for the person washing their dogs. Some dogs may still jump over it anyway. That's why I wanted feedback. So, continue to give me feedback. My other idea was to use it as a dipping tub like they have at The Tailgate dog park and grill.
I have a question for everyone that washes their dogs at the dog park. Some dogs slide themselves off of the wash stands hoping to avoid the bath. I have a wash tub that was donated to the park. My intention was to mount it on one of the stands with one end cut off. My question is, should I use an existing stand or build a new stand for it. If I build a new stand, I will need donations for the materials to build it. Each stand cost was about $300 before post COVID prices. Message me, (or comment if it lets you) with your opinion on the matter. I really appreciate your thoughts. Thanks, Duane Beebe.
