Chris Weatherwax, co-owner of Saluki Dawgs, battles the steam escaping from inside his hot dog cooker while preparing one of his specialty hot dogs for a customer Saturday, Feb. 18, 2017, by Pagliais Pizza on the Strip. Weatherwax and his friend Thomas Becker began the business in December and serve customers between 11 p.m. and 2:30 a.m. Fridays and Saturdays. Weatherwax credits Saluki Ventures, part of the Office of Economic and Regional Development, with helping them start and maintain their business. Honestly, we wouldnt be doing this if it werent for them, Weatherwax said. As far as getting locations, working with us to find out where we can go, who to talk to, theyve been so helpful.
