“Cane III’s work in the Baton Rouge community prepared her for her big city debut in New York’s Times Square, home of the new Raising Cane’s Global Flagship, which opened in June. Wherever her mascot adventures take her, her heart will always be in her hometown and headquarters… the 225.” — Todd Graves, Founder & CEO, Fry Cook & Cashier
Owner: Todd Graves and Family
Breed: English Labrador Retriever
Age: 5
In just one word: “Paw-fessional”
Why she’s special: Raising Cane III is the Of- ficial Mascot of Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers. In her day job, she serves as the official office dog at our headquarters in downtown Baton Rouge. She also travels the country with Todd for new restaurant openings and to visit our be- loved Crewmembers. She recently surprised her fans in New York City for the opening of Raising Cane’s Global Flagship in Times Square!
How we met: Raising Cane III made her grand entrance into the Graves family as she was car- ried on stage at Washington Mardi Gras when Todd served as King of Mystic Krewe of Louisi- anians in 2018. She had big paws to fill from her predecessors Cane I and Cane II, but she’s the perfect pup to carry on the namesake.
Unique skill set: She insists on being a part of every meeting, sitting in her chair like a human alongside her co-workers. She even has a dog bed in Todd’s office so she can take brief doggy naps in between meetings. Cane III doesn’t take being Top Dog at Raising Cane’s lightly.
Pooch passion: Instagram (@RaisingCane3). She routinely does photo shoots where she enjoys dressing up in various costumes and Raising Cane’s gear. She also takes time out of her busy schedule to film commercials with Todd. One of her best traits is her lovable personality. She motivates our Crewmembers and puts a smile on everyone’s faces … as well as a few puppy kisses. People frequently ask, “Is Cane III coming?”
Favorite getaway: Running around and making new friends at the Raising Cane’s Dog Park located at BREC’s City-Brooks Community Park. Raising Cane III recently celebrated her 5th birthday “paw-ty” there.
Favorite reward: For a job well done, Cane III’s preferred reward is a chicken finger from Raising Cane’s. But really, she’ll take any food she can get her paws on.
