Does your dog chase the ice cream truck whenever it comes around? Maybe they think it's the Salty Paws Knox truck! Yes, we will not only have food trucks for people, but the Salty Paws truck will be parked at the corner of Lake Ridge Drive and Clay Street for our festival. Which flavor will you reward your goodest boys and girls with? Prime Rib? Peanut Butter?
