Happy Independence Day, Slingers!
To all of you who are slingin’ today – “SELL ‘EM ALL!!!”
To all who are taking the day off – share the love. Buy a hot dog from your competitor!
In any case, be grateful that we live in AMERICA. The best country in the world – brought to you by our fellow Americans from the past and present who work hard, play hard, keep us safe, defend our freedom, raise our children, and honor God.
I want to thank all of my HDCN readers for being a part of our most American vocation and contributing so many awesome thoughts, tips, tricks, and encouragements to your fellow doggers. You make writing this newsletter a pure joy for me.
In honor of YOU, dear reader, I am running a Fourth Of July sale on my main products:
Enter the coupon code FREEDOM in the box during checkout for a nice discount. Special ends soon so get ’em while they’re hot.
Have a fun and safe fourth folks!

Thank you, Steve for sharing this forum with all Hotdoggers.

Hey Steve,
We’ll be slinging our Coneys on the 4th at a lakefront park, and we intend to sell ’em all…!
Thanks for all you do for all of us Dogger’s…!
Stever, does your FREEDOM special include the hot dog sleds? I need another one……..
thanks
Thanks, Steve, and the same to you! Wonderful website! You’ve taken a potential business competition and turned it into a fraternity! We love it! It’s so great to get all these tips and share info with each other. Together with you we are making it one of America’s best growing businesses.
I’m working the Fourth. At a beach, it has summer memories written all over it, especially for the kids. I’ll take tuesday off, I’m having too much fun.
I’m having to many setbacks this year, but your website and the people on keep me inspired. Mr. Tiki
Have a great 4th all. We will be working the cart this weekend and have a party to do on the 4th.
We will be at the Farmer’s market in Fruita, then we have a Fourth of July (on the 3rd LOL) to do…far from taking the weekend off. I echo the sentiments here about how important this forum is. The support, the new ideas, the excitement for the biz is contagious and soooooooo helpful. Thank you!!!!
Tiki – hang tough bro. That’s how it is sometimes when you own your own business. The ups are great though, aren’t they?!!!
-Steve
I’m gonna be doggin’ it all weekend in spite of the rainy weather….I still expect to sell a bunch
of dogs…..happy firecracker day to all!!!
Larry
Thank you Steve,
You are a Bright Glowing Burner of Propane in the thick gooey world of Chili Sauce….Wanna help me celebrate the FOURTH by drinking a FIFTH on the THIRD???????
Happy 4th to you Steve,
I’ll be slinging on the 4th in Wytheville, VA at a cruise-in. Thanks for all you do.
Jack
You said it Steve! This is going to be a busy week for us – The Grand Prix Boat Parade tonight, The Freedom Auction tomorrow, The Farmers Market Saturday and Sunday and finally The Freedom Festival on Monday! I wish everyone a safe and happy Fourth of July!
Pocono – if I drank a 5th for the 4th on the 3rd, I’d have to take a 2nd to tell you that you’re 1st in my book. Happy Fourth, my most eloquent friend!
-Steve
Thanks Steve, Happy Fourth to all.
Does anyone have a good ratio or educated guess as to how many dogs to have on hand? I’m doing my first “big” (for my area, NE Al.) festival on Sat. the 2nd. They say 12 to 15,000 pass through. It goes for 12 hours, 9 AM to 9PM. It includes a car show too. Fireworks at 9PM.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks Doggers
Here you go Tim…

BTW got my plans when I checked into the hotel THANKS for the express mail shipping.
If I survive the Britney Spears tour (LOL) I will start my build late fall.
Cheers!
Thanks for every thing Steve .You and your family have a great 4th………………………………………….
Steve, Yes the highs are great. I’ve to many doubters telling me its a fools errand. But, when I’m away slinging dogs, I do get that rush. It’s our countries Independants day celebration and our founding fathers need to be remembered with love and honor. Happy Independants Day, everyone!
Mr. Tiki

Lee
PS. I’m building another cart!!!!!
Go get ’em Lee!
Thanks for the great website , Steve. I look forward to each weekly topic. I encourages me to keep moving forward in my hotdog business.
Way up here in Canada we celebrate Canada’s birthday on July 1st. I worked all day at our Children’s festival and then late into the night at our fireworks celebration. The day was long, happy and profitable. Vending is a lifestyle that’s new to me but other vendors are friendly and happy, and like to encourage and help each other. Not only the money is great but the being outdoors and meeting so many friendly people it just pretty darn good.
Happy Canada Day !
Best of luck to all you other doggers.
Janet
Thank You Steve for all you do!!! Have a Safe and Happy Fourth!
