Today is National Dog Day! In July, we announced that the Dunkin’ Joy in Childhood Foundation and The Original BARK Company (NYSE: BARK) (“BARK”), the maker of BarkBox, came together for a second collaboration featuring two “pawsome” new dog toys sure to give your four-legged friend the zoomies, including a treat-dispensing Dunkin’ coffee cup and a Dunkin’ donut and bag. Now, dog parents can get these limited-edition toys, while supplies last, through BARKShop.com, and BarkBox and Super Chewer subscribers can get their paws on the toys as add-ons to their monthly box through Add-to-Box.
When Dunkin’ fans grab a BARK dog toy for their pup, they will be supporting the Dunkin’ Joy in Childhood Foundation’s mission to bring joy to kids battling hunger or illness. Each BARK dog toy is available only by making a donation to the Foundation to help bring joy to kids who need it most, and while supplies last. For a $12 donation at participating restaurants and at BARKShop.com, you will receive the plush Dunkin’ coffee cup dog toy, which is crinkly and packed with squeakers and includes a small tab at the top that “pawrents” can lift to hide treats inside for hours of fun and stimulation. For a $15 donation, you will receive a Dunkin’ Domutt To-Go 2-in-1 toy, and dog parents can hide treats inside the crazy crinkle to-go bag, along with a plush strawberry frosted donut topped with extra sprinkles and filled with squeakers.
BARK dog toys are known for being bright, durable, and perfect for dogs of all ages and sizes, and these sweet toys are no exception. Last year’s BARK and Dunkin’ collaboration raised more than $1.8 million for Foundation programs like Dogs for Joy, introduced in 2018 to bring full-time service dogs to children’s hospitals. The dogs bring joy, ease anxiety, and reduce stress for kids battling illness and their families. To date, the Dunkin’ Joy in Childhood Foundation has funded 26 service dogs at 15 hospitals, impacting hundreds of thousands of young patients.
