The first deep-frying techniques were used as a means of preserving wedding gowns and Barry Bonds rookie cards; it wasn't until later that they were applied to food. Today's Groupon champions culinary innovation with two deep-fried Zog Dogs from Zog's Dogs for $5. Now you can finally actualize your wildest hot-dog dream without immolating the kitchen curtains.
A deep-fried classic Zog Dog entices the senses with its playful temperatures, inviting textures, and all-beefiness. If the thought of one deep-fried dog raises your eyebrows, you'll be happy to know that today's deal gets you two Zog Dogs. The first dog will quench your curiosity and salve your suspicions while the second dog stands proudly as a celebration of deep-fried goodness.
For those who simply cannot fathom deep-frying a hot dog and enjoying its deep-fried flavors, you can choose to redeem the Groupon for two un-fried dogs. Either way, it's the perfect midday meal for busy business people who find themselves constantly yearning to make enough money to one day afford their own deep fryer so they can make deep-fried hot dogs for every meal of the day and sell leftovers to neighborhood children.
You must buy both dogs at once.

Mayor Gavin Newsom declared October 16, 2009, to be Zog’s Dog Day:
- …Zog’s Dogs is another example of the unique small businesses that are the heart and soul of our City’s economy – Mayor Gavin Newsom

- I've been going to Zog's Dogs since it opened, and every time has been an absolute pleasure. The buns are fresh, the dogs are delicious (I love the variety of condiments that you can choose from), the service is friendly, the prices are right and it feels good to be supporting a funky, little San Francisco business. – Blair T., Yelp
- Yuh-uhm! Quick, cheap and deeeeee-licious! Great vegi dogs and super friendly staff. All the condiments are fresh and the table is always clean. Cannot beat a cheap dog on the go. – Jasmine B., Yelp

Common Questions About Buying a Dog
Today's Groupon makes it easy to buy hot dogs—just reading the deal tells you everything you need to know. Unfortunately, buying a real, four-legged dog is a much more difficult task. Here are the most commonly asked questions from prospective dog purchasers and their answers:
Q: Is it true that dogs cannot get wet?
A: No, you are thinking of gremlins. Dogs, however, cannot be exposed to temperatures above 70 degrees without violently expanding.
Q: Is it difficult to train a dog?
A: No, it's quite easy, assuming that your dog speaks English or that you are training it to chew up couches and go to the bathroom wherever it wants.
Q: The dogs I encounter always look at me funny.
A: That's not a question. But in general, dogs are very perceptive, and if you are thinking of mailing the President a piece of your ear to protest fluoridation, they know about it already.
