You may have noticed the new signage outside 92 E. Seventh St. in recent weeks...
Earlier this spring, the Houston-based Revival Dog Training announced that it was taking over the former School for Dogs space, located between First Avenue and Avenue A.
In Janaury, Annie Grossman had no choice but to shutter School for the Dogs, the business she started in her East Village living room in 2011, with little to no warning to her longtime patrons and staff. She said a potential sale to another local pet services operation fell through at the last minute, leaving her and the business in financial ruin. (You can read our interview with Grossman here.)
Here's part of an Instagram post from Revival:
We are acquiring the very popular and nationally recognized School For The Dogs' Manhattan location, which closed in January. We plan to honor the SFTD legacy through our own programs and brand, and continue to serve dogs and their people in the East Village community, just as they did for many years. We are thankful to have the help of SFTD owner, Annie Grossman, during our transition.
They plan to open on May 12.
