It seems as though the new Bark Avenue Dog Wash (of which I have previously made mention while it was under construction) is now open for business. I have not gone inside yet, but I snapped a quick shot of it yesterday morning while on my daily fitness walk.
The new business is located off Pantano Road (near Speedway Blvd.) -- adjacent to the Fry's Market entrance.
According to their Facebook page, they opened Friday, August 2nd at 8 a.m. and they carry great dog and cat food product lines. All natural, healthy, limited ingredient foods:
Natural Balance
Petcurean (go! and now)
Blue Buffalo
Nature's Logic

After a troubled childhood and adolescence, during which he was expelled from two schools and spent three months in prison for credit card fraud, he secured a place at Queens' College, Cambridge, where he studied English Literature. While at university, Fry became involved with the Cambridge Footlights, where he met his long-time collaborator Hugh Laurie (Dr. House). As half of the comic double act Fry and Laurie, he co-wrote and co-starred in A Bit of Fry & Laurie, and took the role of Jeeves (with Laurie playing Wooster) in Jeeves and Wooster.
I don't suppose anyone else reading this is interested in Stephen Fry. But I am, and that's what counts.
Right?
