Tips on Starting a Small Business - Interview with Amy Wolf, of The Dog Spot

<p>Amy Wolf and Chef Arion Canniff opened The Dog Spot on Black Friday 2017. The concept is a small cafe focused on fresh-made foods, international fusion flavors and smaller, healthier portions with wine, beer and cider from the Inland and Pacific Northwest PLUS a small retail shop filled with pet gear and treats, and human clothing and accessories with pet themes (like a tiny Rainforest Cafe, but with dogs &amp; cats).<br> <br> The answers to 2 questions guided every decision in the 20+ years of their relationship prior to opening a business: "What do we eat?" and "What do we do with the dogs?" So, it was a logical mash up to keep both partners interested and passionate about the results of their own business.<br> <br> Check out their website at <a href="http://www.lovethedogspot.com/">www.lovethedogspot.com</a> and their Facebook page <a href="https://lnkd.in/gZgYbq8">https://lnkd.in/gZgYbq8</a> and if you find yourself in the vicinity of Northeastern Oregon be sure to stop in their location at 19 S.
