About

Leave it to our dad to zhuzh up a hot dog! That's exactly what he did with Pa's Pizza Dog. He takes some toasted buns and loads them up with juicy franks, plus all the tomato-y, melty tastes from that slice of pepperoni he loves so much. He's quite the character and we love him for that! Pa's Pizza Dog is one of a kind, just like him!
