Canandaigua dog spa rebrands as Barc Dog Spa & Boutique | Exclusive

As far as new names go for a doggie spa, Barc Dog Spa & Boutique works for Maddyn DeSain. DeSain, who cleans the bays at the business, likes the name change from Bad Dog Boutique for a pretty good reason. "It's more 'dog' I feel like," DeSain said Thursday at a ribbon-cutting announcing the official rebrand of the former Bad Dog Boutique at 84 S. Main St., Canandaigua. Barc, as in bark — you know, what dogs do. But the "arc" part of the rebrand is also an important aspect of the change for getting the word out of what The Arc of Ontario does, said Michelle Jungermannn, chief operating officer of The Arc Ontario's enterprise operations. Barc Dog Spa & Boutique is one of the agency's social enterprises, which includes downtown neighbor North Star Coffee, Spot On Cleaning, FLX Premier Bottling and Finger Lakes Bus Service. These businesses help individuals of all abilities develop job skills, earn wages, and participate in their communities, which is "still at the heart of what we do," Jungermann said. And besides, there are no real "bad" dogs, anyway, Jungermann said. Whatever the name is, retail assistant Cheyenne Daughtery can't wait to go to

Why we should preserve our lake heritage

There was a time when going to the lake was simply what Rochesterians did. On warm summer afternoons, families packed their cars and headed north toward Charlotte. Children ran barefoot through the sand. Parents unfolded lawn chairs, unpacked picnic baskets, and opened those unmistakable yellow Kodak coolers. The smell of sunscreen mixed with the breeze coming off Lake Ontario. The carousel turned, the waves rolled in, and for a few hours, the concerns of everyday life seemed a little farther away. You didn’t need much money. You didn’t need a reservation. You just needed a beautiful afternoon and somewhere to spread a blanket. The lake belonged to everyone.
