Animazing Pet Spa, Burlington, ON

Founded in January 2005, Anivac has risen from being a sensational idea to being one of the world's leading cleaning systems for animals.
Dave Hachey, the Mastermind behind Anivac came up with the original idea for the bathing system from his inability to get the family’s big smelly Newfoundland dog clean and odour free. Dave found that after thoroughly bathing the dog it would smell and look better but after only a few days the masking effect of the shampoo would wear off and the terrible odour would return. He realized it was the thick dense coat of the dog that was preventing him from working shampoo down into the coat to the skin.
After much thought he came up with the idea of creating wash nozzles that were like a comb and would go down to the animals skin where the dirt was, and then spray. After this he realised that if he combined the comb-like washing system with a vacuum he would have an all inclusive bathing system that would not only clean better and use substantially less water, but would also eliminate the mess associated with traditional bathing. From the first unit made back in 1995 came the Anivac of today.
