A sponsored post for biscuit brand Bahlsen and their new PiCK UP! biscuit.

PiCKUP! BiscuitsAs Crufts 2015 opens its doors today with parades of perfectly pampered pooches, another dog competition is launching nationwide, and anyone can get involved…

PiCK UP! biscuits contain chocolate so sacred they have to be ​protected by their very own Ninja Chihuahua – who is now on a nationwide hunt to find the final canine contestant to take part in his ​Dogs that Demand Respect, Ninja Apprentice Championships.

Competition is fierce; research reveals that three quarters of all dog owners claim that their dog has special skills, and an incredible ​ 66% of Londoners believe that their canine is more intuitive than their human partner!
The competition opens on Thursday the 5th of March on the PiCK UP! website, where dog owners can enter videos of their own talented ninja canines. Visit ​http://www.pickupbiscuits.co.uk/ for more information.

THE HARD FACTS:

➔ Of the ‘most trustworthy’candidates, 35% chose Lassie, 35% chose Gromit, 14% chose David Cameron, 7% chose Ed Miliband, 6% chose Nigel Farage and 3% chose Nick Clegg
➔ 73% of dog owners believe their dogs do have ‘special skills’
➔ 66% of Londoners think their dog is more intuitive than their partner

DOGS THAT DEMAND RESPECT 2015:

Do you think your pooch has what it takes to be Britain’s ninja dog? Does he or she have some serious ninja skills? Do you think s/he could protect the sacred chocolate? Have a look at the four finalists below, and if you think your dog could be the 5th share your video on the PiCK UP! Facebook page!

ABOUT PiCKUP!

Wanting more from your humble chocolate biscuit?Look no further – satisfying yet moreish,​ PiCK UP! biscuits​ , which burst onto the scene last year, are surprisingly and delightfully different to the usual biscuit bars you find on supermarket shelves…

The classic ​ PiCK UP! Milk Chocolate is a deliciously thick milk chocolate slab sandwiched between two crisp biscuits. More-chocolate-than-a-biscuit, munch on one ​yourself or share them with the entire family – but make sure they don’t disrespect the chocolate. The PiCK UP! Ninja Chihuahua now also guards NEW ​ PiCK UP! Black ‘N White – a sumptuous, silky smooth, thick slab of white chocolate perfectly complemented by two crisp chocolate flavoured biscuits.

PiCK UP! biscuits are available as a pack of five or as an individual biscuit bar from supermarkets and independent retailers nationwide. Each bar is individually wrapped to stay fresher for longer, allowing you to enjoy the perfect pick-me-up when on the run, at your desk or on the sofa.

Find PiCK UP on Facebook and Twitter. Don’t forget to share a video of your own ninja dog onto their Facebook page – your pooch could be Britain’s next ninja dog!

    My Pug can twist on demand and run while twirling but that’s about it ha-ha! And would love to be considered for the biscuits 😛

    Whilst ‘Buddy’ is an excellent name for a ninja, he is really a loveable softie! Who would probably enjoy the biscuits too…!

    I have 2 dogs but I’m not quite sure about their Ninja qualities. Sleeping competions they’d win hands down.

    Monty is just to daft to be a ninja and he’s certainly not light footed enough or controlled he’s a tad nutty! Love Pickups!

    In it for the biscuits – I don’t have a dog as it would be cruel to keep one in a tiny flat like mine.

    My dog’s a total ninja when it comes to food! He is currently in a cone for another week as he recently had the snip and a hernia repair op – even though he has a cone on he’s still managed to remove a stitch – ninja level 8 easily 😀

    I have 2 whippets and no way could they be the next ninja dog lol…so I’m in it for the biscuits I’m afraid, though I might share them with my dogs once I’ve licked the chocolate off!

    Do you think your pooch could be Britain’s next ninja dog, or are you just in it for the biscuits? 🙂 honesty is the best policy – l’m just in it for the biscuits

    Has to be the biscuits because my dogs are far from ninjas. I had to rescue the eldest last week as she tried to chase two cats – one ignored her and carried on licking his, um, ‘parts’ the other turned and hissed at her. My dog was too terrified to move

    Well, I have 2 bulldogs so they are not built for Ninja skill….so it must be for the biscuits 🙂

    I sadly don’t own any living dogs anymore 🙁 But my two previous dogs – Ben – a lovely cocker spaniel, and Henry, a gorgeous beagle, would have been forces to be reckoned with. Perhaps they could’ve been a Ninja tag team back in the day? 🙂
