Hot Dog is a wholesome ode to the dogs of Milwaukee in their many edible and non-edible forms. It features slice-of-life musings, drawings and photographs on unbound pages that act like flash cards. The zine evokes the feeling of flipping through printed photographs after a vacation: the best nostalgia! Documentary-style, whimsical, and a delight to share.

This zine is for fans of pupperonis or for folks who have a regular order at the Vanguard (Diana’s is the Thai Breaker).

Approximately 9in x 3.25in. Risograph printed, 9 unbound pages cased in a carnival dog wrapper. Second edition. Produced by BearBear in USA, 2023.
