Hide AdAs Arran and Liam bake all of the doggy treats for the cafe, and have been taking orders for delivery while in lockdown, they decided to bake a novel dog biscuit to say thanks to all of the tireless work of NHS staff.
The NHS doggie donut biscuit launched yesterday (April 2) at 8pm, to coincide with the clap for carers movement, which saw the people across the UK take to their doorstep to applaud NHS and care staff.
Arran said: “We saw other businesses do their bit to help the NHS, and we can’t really go dropping dog treats off at hospitals, so decided to create a biscuit for the NHS!
“All profits will go to Sherwood Forest Hospitals NHS Trust, and it’s just our way of supporting the work they are doing.”

The unusual treats include doggie donuts, 'woofins' - doggie muffins, pupcorn, and even custard creams.
The NHS biscuits are peanut butter flavour, with a sprinkling of desiccated coconut.
Arran added: “We have sold 20 biscuits already, and hope to sell as many as possible. We’ve had orders from far and wide.
