Just noticed this morning that the small store between the Dang and Amato's Pizza (north-east corner of Queen and Pape, on Queen) has a sign for a dog washing store! I suppose washing a dog is a messy task that people would prefer to do not in their own home. The place used to be some sort of sweat shop, with people on old sewing machines all day. I saw a couple contractor-types doing renovations as I was waiting for the streetcar.
