Community Bark Dog Wash & Coffee Bar opened a second store in Milwaukee's Bay View neighborhood.

The first Community Bark, one of the nation's only dog wash and coffee bars, opened its first store in Bayside in September 2009. It offers dog washing and grooming, dog training, as well as the opportunity for pet caregivers to drink Alterra coffee in the dog-friendly "Barker Lounge."

Community Bark Bay View, 2440 S. Kinickinnic Ave., has a state-of-the-art bathing facility, with five step-in wash tubs and professional grooming dryers. It has a staff of eleven full and part-time employees.

Community Bark Bay View is one of the retail tenants in new Dwell Bay View building, the 70-unit apartment building recently opened on the corner of South Kinnickinnic Avenue and Conway Avenue.

"Bay View is just the perfect dog-loving, close-knit community for Community Bark. We're so excited to join this wonderful community," says owner Andrew Appel.
