Dozens of dogs given a scrub-up in Cannock as part of world record attempt
Thousands of dogs were scrubbed and pampered as part of a world-record breaking attempt.
Nationwide pet shop chain Pets at Home say they have successfully broken the world record for the number of dogs bathed within 12 hours.
In total, across the West Midlands there were 5,613 dogs washed, with the previous record standing at 5,000.
The Cannock branch saw 120 dogs washed. For every dog there was a cost of £5 with all the proceeds go towards Support Adoption For Pet, an organisation which help unwanted pets across the UK.
Other stores that took part in the region included Walsall, Tamworth, Oldbury, Telford, and Merry Hill.
Sarah Jones, aged 43, salon manager at Pets at Home in Cannock, said: "We're just thrilled, really really thrilled. The fact that we had so many people taking part all over the region was incredible and especially because we raised money for a good cause."
Bosses are currently waiting for confirmation from the Guinness World Records experts that the record has been broken.
