Vending machines for your pet to be groomed may sound like a good idea, but I personally think it is incredibly cruel.  This type of thing has been around for a while now but I can’t believe that they are still around.

Animals hate getting bathed already, now people put them in a machine where there can’t do anything except sit there and suffer?  This is so mean!!  I am not some kind of animal rights activist but I do love dogs and hate to see them suffer.

A groomer at Joyful Honda pet market claims the process uses pure ozone water and is completely safe for the pet. One user, however, admitted it took his Yorkshire terrier a while to get used to the dryer.

The vending machine wash costs about $5 compared to approximately $30 for grooming.

Who cares about saving money when it comes to your pet’s mental health?  You want your dog to go crazy?  Go ahead, put him in a washing machine.  Smart.  Horrible videos of animals getting groomed in these machines after the jump.

In Japan people are trying to save money on grooming with this car wash type grooming service but at the same time, can’t you get off your lazy ass and wash your pet yourself?

At least it doesn’t actually cause any physical damage to the pet, but emotionally that pet must be scarred for life.  Am I wrong for thinking this is cruel?  Does anyone else agree with me on this one?
