Die-hard hot-dogger

Christine Miklosik, owner and operator of Dogz on Wheels, prepares a Chicago-style hot dog Tuesday near the Murdale Shopping Center from her portable stand. Miklosik, a 2009 SIU alumna, started Dogz on Wheels in 2011 in Murphysboro, and she has been stationed in Carbondale on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays for the past six weeks. “I came here from the Chicagoland area to do the college thing and couldn’t find a decent hot dog, so I started the cart,” Miklosik said. “Business has picked up and I already have a group of regulars.”
