Seattle
Visit Seattle’s most popular dog
parks and you might encounter this
food truck, a roving pup-friendly
bakery that dishes out biscuits,
cookies, cupcakes and these
pretzel treats made from peanut
butter and pumpkin. Dogs love
them, plus pumpkin is considered
a superfood for dogs—it’s great for
digestion. theseattlebarkery.com
Kansas City, MO
When Three Dog Bakery opened
in Lee’s Summit, MO, last year,
it became the 47th location—
a dream that seemed impossible
31 years ago, when the original
Kansas City shop was the only
canine bakery in the country. Far
ahead of the trend, founders
Mark Beckloff and Dan Dye started
making dog food to help their
rescue mutt, Gracie, who had
stomach sensitivities. These doggie
truffles are a longtime favorite.

3 cups whole-wheat flour
1½ teaspoons baking powder
