Just as there are items of clothing and restaurants designed specifically for dogs, Milo's Kitchen is taking a dog food truck across the United States to give out free samples from its line of home-style dog treats. The Treat Truck Tour features tasty snacks for dogs like Chicken Meatballs, Grilled Burger Bites and Beef Sausage Slices, made from domestically-sourced meat.
After fueling up with a quick snack, the Treat Truck has a place for pet owners to pose with their pooch at the photo booth, or kick back at one of the lounges with places for dogs to nap, play or wash down a snack with some water. The tour hit events like the Doggie Street Festival this summer and is now continuing to New York City.
