In anticipation of Easter, Cadbury announced its fourth-annual Cadbury Bunny -- therapy dog Annie Rose. Annie Rose is a therapy dog who visits local nursing homes. In addition to being featured as the star in the 2022 Cadbury Clucking Bunning commercial this year, the English Doodle also received a $5,000 cash price.
All three previous winners - Henri the English Bulldog (2019), Lieutenant Dan (2020) and Betty the Frog (2021) - along with the Cadbury brand team narrowed down the top 10 finalists before turning it over to America to decide the winner. Annie Rose is getting her bunny ears back on and joining the Cadbury Hall of Fame after thousands of votes from fans nationwide.
"We can't thank everyone enough for voting for our very own Annie Rose and making her the next Cadbury Bunny, especially her doodle families and friends who went over and beyond," said Lori R., Annie Rose's owner. "Our community rallied behind and supported her just as she has for them for years as a therapy dog. All of us are still shocked by the news but can't wait to get Annie Rose those iconic Cadbury Bunny ears."
