The place is owned by Rahmi Massarweh, a professional French cuisine chef who believes fresh raw foods work best for canines and provide them with all the natural nutrients they need.
He says, “Dogue is our mission to change the lives of as many dogs as we can. Feeding fresh, seasonal, quality whole food one meal at a time.”
The idea of opening such a high-end pet restaurant came to him in 2010 when he and his wife Alejandra brought in their first dog — a nearly 14-kg, 10-week Old English Mastiff, and named him Grizzly. They wanted their pup to be the happiest and started feeding him what was recommended by breeders and pet shop owners. After a week, it was quite clear that he didn’t like his food. So, the owners realised no pet enjoys eating the same dry, crunchy, bagged or canned food every day.
Massarweh started experimenting and preparing wholesome foods with fresh seasonal produce and in 2015, began selling them in small batches. Gradually, Dogue, a grand human-grade dog food joint, was born.
At Dogue, dogs become the main guests, and all dishes are prepared only for them. However, there are several other cafes and restaurants in the US providing meals for both humans and their pets
While pets are allowed to dine on the open patio at Lazy Dogs, The Block in Minneapolis serves pet dishes like turkey meatloaf and pup burgers and has a year-long dog-friendly ‘Pawtio’ with heated floors.\
