Outdoor dog wash station. Anyone have one?
Discussion
Best thing we did for washing dogs was install an external hot tap. Its great for when the labs roll in something nasty and washes shampoo out quickly, oh and also cleaning MTB's.
We have an outdoor jacuzzi and dog bath at home, as well.
The main problem is keeping the labs out of the either in the middle of winter when I let them out in the garden for final wee as I'm about to go to bed.

This is PH at its finest. “I don’t even have a dog but in looking to spend £2K redesigning the house, just in case.
Get a MudDaddy or similar and a bunch of old towels to dry him/ her off. Job done. Unlike Ranger6 who likes his dog to dry au natural.
I live right outside a country park in the middle of Suffolk. A boot room as well as practical, would likely increase the desirability/value of the house. I’m not a powerfully built director, but £2,000 isn’t a lot of money or a bad investment. Get a MudDaddy or similar and a bunch of old towels to dry him/ her off. Job done.

The country park location was actually the consideration for a dog when I moved here two years ago
I would perhaps wait until you've got the dog then make a reassessment - we've had dogs for years, also live next to a country park and it's never been an issue. We're about to have a kitchen extension built and we'll likely have an outside mixer shower head installed during the process as it'll be dirt cheap to add on, and I think that's spoiling the dog, a dog that we all absolutely love to bits and gets treated very very well.
