Meet the Andres, owners and operators of Dominion Dogs! David and Andrea met in college while working at a restaurant, and they have shared their love for original, quality food ever since. Dominion Dogs was started in March 2020 (yes that March 2020) as a hot dog cart operation on the food truck circuit as a means to make extra money during the Summer for then educator, Dave Andre. The business quickly grew and after 2 years Dave quit his day job to pursue a career slinging hot dogs. After taking some time off for maternity, Dave’s wife Andrea developed and implemented the plans to get their restaurant off the ground. Dominion Dogs, Hot Dogs • Cold Beer launched September 9, 2023.
They have 2 daughters, Kit and Dot, who you will often see romping while their parents are working.
One of Dominion Dog’s goals is to help support the local community and to create meaningful relationships with businesses and organizations that make a difference. Portions of our proceeds are donated to support such organizations.

Guiding Principle
Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and your dominion endures through all generations. The LORD is faithful to all his promises and loving toward all he has made.
The LORD upholds all those who fall and lifts up all who are bowed down. The eyes of all look to you, and you give them their food at the proper time. You open your hand and satisfy the desires of every living thing.
– Psalm 145: 13-16
