What about red velvet cake? They sell that at our market & it’s red, like cherry.
Here’s a url that has a doggy cake:

1 time, about 10 years ago I went to the market & was buying ice cream for my kids. I got Frosty Paws & it wasn’t until my son tried it that we realized they were doggy ice creams. Ha!

Erin, I looked for that cake mix today.  Apparently they don’t carry it here.  She might have to settle for chocolate cake

Can you see your mom smiling as she reads this blog and thinking, “That’s my girl...I knew she would learn to cook.” Now think of all the fun times you will have with your kids in the kitchen.

By the way...I like the plastic puppy dog on top of the birthday cake. It seems I did something like that once although it was basketball players, hoop and basketball. Kids like the 3D treatment,then they can play with the decorations after the cake is gone. Dog bone or dog shaped cookie cutters and a small can of playdough would make nice favors.

I think they have a cherry chip cake - they being Duncan Hines or Betty Crocker or someone.  As for the puppy, find a plastic one and plop it on top!  At least the cherry cake would have gone with Hello Pink, I mean Kitty.
