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.
