Dan-Dan the Sky Diving Man opened the Hotdogger at 129 E S in Downtown Davis, Ca.

The Franks family purchased the Hotdogger. Dan-Dan the Sky Diving Man wanted to pursue skydiving full time.

The Hotdogger started serving at the evening picnic in the Park!

After many years of petitioning and being on a waitlist we finally got our coveted spot at the Davis Farmers Market on Saturdays.

Franks family traveled with their son to Thailand during his gap year excursion, which inspired the idea of the Hotdogger’s Thai Sausage.

The pandemic slowed business down but this was the perfect opportunity for the family to experiment with creating The Hotdogger’s own sausages. The Beer Brat and Thai were born! The Brats feature local brews and the Thai sausage capture the essence of the family travels in Thailand.

Began serving at Ruhstaller Farm in Dixon Friday through Sunday. This is officially our second location and hub for all things Hotdogger. We expanded the menu and offer rotating specials every weekend alongside Ruhstaller's great beer and atmosphere.

We celebrated 40 years! The owner's son, Max Franks, redesigned the old logo
