— February 4, 2026 — Lifestyle
Pet parents want meaningful ways to include their dogs in holiday celebrations, and Tropical Smoothie Cafe is answering the call this Valentine's Day with a limited-time Fur-Ever Duo. Part treat for humans and part treat for beloved dogs, the Fur-Ever Duo pairs the returning, fan-favorite Chocolate Covered Strawberry Smoothie with the all-new Puppy Power Bowl.

The premium Puppy Power Bowl features Greek yogurt topped with a peanut butter drizzle, and it can be ordered on its own or as part of the Fur-Ever Duo as a sweet way to enhance a relationship with a furry friend. According to a recent survey conducted by Tropical Smoothie Cafe, 40% of single Americans with pets say they would rather spend Valentine's Day with a four-legged companion than with loved ones, friends or family.
