All is not lost for pet owners who were relying on Loyal Companion, the pet store that recently closed at 6900 Arlington Road in Bethesda. Wag N' Wash has moved into their space at the end of the Bradley Shopping Center. Wag N' Wash carries food and supplies for dogs and cats, offers grooming services as well as a self-serve pet washing station, and features a "gourmet" pet deli and bakery.
Wag N' Wash was founded in 1999 by Jef Strauss and Dan Remus. Each location is independently owned and operated by local businesspeople. Wag N' Wash was acquired last year by Pet Supplies Plus, but Strauss and Remus are staying on-board until spring next year, to ensure a smooth transition and that the brand maintains the standards they've set for more than two decades.
"Both Pet Supplies Plus and Wag N' Wash believe in community, local retail and a fun experience in our stores," Strauss said in a statement. "With strong infrastructure behind them, passionate owners can build local relationships and deliver the ultimate experiential retail experience." Wag N' Wash currently also has two other stores in Maryland, which are located in Rockville and California (in St. Mary's County).
