Dogs become divas at the new Dog Spa in Whitby Credit: The Raithwaite Estate
A luxury spa with a difference has opened at a country estate in Yorkshire, UK. The difference being that it's been designed for dogs.

At the new Dog Spa at the Raithwaite Estate in Whitby, pooches can enjoy a whole range of services including Dead Sea mud or thalassotherapy baths, a specialist wedding ceremony pruning session, plus more conventional grooming and trimming treatments.

Other styling options cover ear cleaning and plucking, teeth brushing, deep cleansing bath, conditioning treatment with 15-minute gentle head and body massage, blow dry, full breed style or de-shedding treatment, nail trim, paw pad treatment, finishing fragrance spritz of your choice and hair accessories.

There are also six luxury, central-heated dog lodges available at the Skelwith Group-owned property, while a 73-bedroom hotel on-site has dog-friendly rooms too.
