There really is nothing better than kicking back, popping on a movie and cuddling with your dog. Luckily, this summer, date night with your pooch doesn’t have to be on the couch, because Moonlight Cinema has the ultimate offering you and your dog are going to love.
Lyka, the Australian B Corp behind fresh, human-grade dog meals, has teamed up with the much-loved outdoor cinema to create the perfect dog-friendly night out, with an experience where pups are just as spoiled as their humans. Running until April 5th, Moonlight Cinema locations across the country will now feature a dedicated doggie meal pack on their menu for the very first time, making movie nights under the stars feel like a true family affair.
So forget leaving your furry friend at home, this season, they can curl up on the picnic rug with their own film-night feast. Lyka’s dog menu features a fresh kangaroo meal and comes bundled into an exclusive $17 goodie bag valued at $55. Inside, you’ll find a DOG by Dr Lisa Lick Mat to keep pups calm and entertained during the movie, a healthy Turkey Dental Jerky Treat for a post-film ‘after-dinner mint’ moment, and a Lyka cooler bag to keep everything perfectly chilled until they’re ready to snack. It’s a totally adorable combo of nourishment, enrichment, and mini pampering that turns any dog into a VIP (a Very Important Pup).
“Just like humans, dogs love to be part of shared experiences,” shared Veterinarian, Dr Alexander England. “By giving them a food experience that’s both enriching and calming, we’re helping dogs enjoy the night alongside their humans. Licking and chewing are soothing, instinctive behaviours that can reduce stress and release feel-good hormones, so it’s a win for dogs and their people alike.”
Lyka co-founder Anna Podolsky says that the partnership celebrates what dog lovers already know, pups aren’t pets, they’re family. “At Lyka, we know that dogs aren’t just pets, they are family. This partnership with Moonlight Cinema is a fun way for dog lovers to share special moments with their furry friends, enjoying treats, relaxation, and the magic of an outdoor movie together. We can’t wait to see tails wagging across Australia this summer.”
So if you’ve been looking for an experience that you and your pup can enjoy together under the stars, then this is something you’re going to want to check out. So whether you’re catching the latest blockbuster or settling in for a cult classic, this summer’s Moonlight Cinema means date night has never been more wholesome.
