Following the release of its pumpkin spice doughnut collection, Krispy Kreme is doubling down and treating customers’ furry friends with its new Pup’kin Spice Doggie Doughnuts, available starting this Saturday, August 26 for National Dog Day.
Pup’kin Spice Doggie Doughnuts are handmade doughnut-shaped biscuits for dogs that can be purchase through August 31 at participating shops across the US while supplies last. The collection includes the Pup’kin Spice Original Glazed, Pup’kin Spice Cake, Pup’kin Spice Maple Peanut and Pup’kin Spice Cheesecake Swirl. Doggie Doughnuts will be packaged in a special six-count box for purchase in-shop and via drive-thru.
Pup’kin Spice Doggie Doughnuts are safe, dog-friendly, doughnut-shaped biscuits handmade by Huds and Toke, an Australia-based artisan baked pet treat company. Each treat is designed specifically for dogs of all sizes and ages, made with a hard-baked cookie and ingredients such as pumpkin, peanut butter and carob, a substitute for chocolate. Pup'kin Spice Doggie Doughnuts are intended as a snack and are not formulated to be served as a complete and balanced meal.
This is the second consecutive year that Krispy Kreme has celebrated dogs and their owners with Doggie Doughnuts, this time centered around a popular fall flavor.
“Dogs add so much to our lives, so for National Dog Day we’ve upped our game for you to give them the awesome treat they deserve,” says Dave Skena, global chief brand officer for Krispy Kreme. “We know you love our Pumpkin Spice and now it’s time for dogs to get in on the action. We’re pawsitive (groan) your dogs will love them.”
Krispy Kreme is also offering limited-edition green or white dog bandanas covered in a pattern of dogs, bones and doughnuts. They come in one size that fits most dogs and are available while supplies last at participating locations.
