Within the last few years, Shake Shack has introduced a few dog-safe edible treats and it continues to dote on pets with its exclusive line of chew toys for dogs with BarkBox.
With BarkBox, the subscription service sharing various dog products on a monthly basis, Shake Shack created treats that are sure to last longer than treats that can actually be eaten by pets. The toys inspired by the burger chain include Frenchie Fries, a Never-Melt Milkshake and a BarkBurger, all of which can be purchased individually or as part of a complete set called 'The Works.'
The Shake Shack-inspired dog toys are designed to look just like the real menu items served to people, right down to the details like the chain's crinkle-cut fries and the colorful sprinkles atop the milkshakes.
