SEATTLE (AP) — Stand on any block around lunchtime near Amazon.com’s downtown Seattle headquarters and there are two common sights: people walking their dogs and people buying lunch at food trucks.

The scene offers a window into Seattle’s infatuations with dogs (and cats), which outnumber children here, and the maturing food truck market.

Now, one truck is combining both by catering to humankind’s best friend.

“It kind of seems natural that now that we’ve conquered the people food truck market that we bring that to our faithful furry friends,” Janelle Harding said.

Harding is a customer of the Seattle Barkery, a food truck that serves dogs and their owners in Seattle-area dog parks, office building parking lots, farmers markets and private events. It rolled into operation 10 months ago.

“I think there is definitely a market for more things like that, where human and canine activities are combined. You don’t want to always leave them at home or leave them in the car,” said Dawn Ford, who owns and operates the truck with her husband, Ben.
