The pet treat packaging for Purina's Beggin' Poppers is designed to make treat time even more fun for dogs. The container is bright pink and pig-shaped, with a squishy nose that the dog treats can be pressed up against. When released, the nose-shaped popper launches the dog treats into the air, starting a game of fetch. The treats are made with pure ingredients like real bacon and Monterey Jack cheese, making them savory and indulgent treats that are also healthy.
Although the pig-shaped container seems like a strange choice for launching dog treats, it works perfectly as it's tied in with the #WhenPigsFly campaign, which has pet owners capture images of their dogs interacting with the pet treat packaging.
