Dallas-Fort Worth Raising Cane’s Serve Up Holiday Nostalgia to Benefit Cody’s Friends Rescue 

Written by Raising Canes

Raising Cane’s is triple-dog-daring the Community to support local animal welfare organizations this holiday season by purchasing any of its adorable, limited-edition Plush Puppies 

Raising Cane’s is triple-dog-daring the Community to spread some holiday cheer—and help pets in need—with the return of its beloved A Christmas Story-inspired Plush Puppies. Beginning Nov. 19 through Dec. 31, fans of the holiday classic can snag these adorable, limited-edition collectibles for $10.99 plus tax, available in-Restaurant and online while supplies last. Each Plush Puppy purchase supports animal welfare organizations across the country, including Cody’s Friends Rescue, continuing Cane’s heartwarming tradition of giving back to local pets in need this holiday season. 

Todd Graves, owner and founder of Raising Cane’s, infused his passion for animals into the Brand he founded in 1996, naming it after his beloved dog. Each holiday season, Raising Cane’s introduces a new, special-edition Cane’s Plush Puppy and the one-of-a-kind program has been a tail-wagging hit since 2006, raising more than $9 million for Community dog parks, no-kill rescues and shelters.  

Keeping with the A Christmas Story spirit, Cane’s is unwrapping three holiday Plush Puppies that are sure to have fans grinning like “Ralphie” on Christmas morning. This year’s options include:  

In addition to the hundreds of local pet welfare organizations Raising Cane’s is supporting across the country, the beloved Chicken Finger Brand is also donating $100,000 to the  BISSELL Pet Foundation, which is dedicated to helping every pet find its forever home.  

The holiday fun doesn’t stop there! Cane’s is keeping the cheer going nationwide with touchpoints across Restaurants, online and out-of-home, including festive A Christmas Story-inspired displays, digital messaging and ad spots. The Brand is also dropping new limited-edition retail collections on www.RaisingCanesGear.com. Fans can cozy up with A Christmas Story–inspired tees, pajama sets, socks and lapel pins launching Nov. 19, along with “Dreaming of Raising Cane’s” cozy must-haves launching Nov. 3. A Christmas Story-themed gift cards, available in-Restaurant and online, add one more way to give a major award this season. And because it wouldn’t be the holidays without a little surprise and delight, select members of the Caniac Club will receive Movies Anywhere digital codes to stream A Christmas Story and have a chance to win limited-edition Cane’s holiday bundles in a special swipestakes. Raising Cane’s truly makes the holidays brighter, one story, one smile and one Box Combo® at a time.
