Started by Tracy Werner and Donna Santucci, Fido to Go plans to be seen sniffing around local dog parks, beaches, and special events in the Chicago area and will also be available to cater special dog occasions and doggy birthday parties.

What say you, readers? Would a food truck for mutts work in the Valley?
