       Ask almost anyone and they'll tell you A&W is home to the burger
       family. But the OGs know that one of these fan-favourite menu items
       isn't a burger at all, but actually the Whistle Dog. Now, it looks
       like the burger chain is teasing its return.
        
       The A&W Whistle Dog was a delicious hot dog nested in a toasted bun
       topped with relish, cheddar cheese and bacon.
        
       It's the only previously discontinued A&W menu item that has been
       brought back by sheer fan demand. Fans have petitioned and flooded
       social media with comments begging for the Whistle Dog's return. Now,
       it looks like A&W is responding.
        
       The excitement all started with a post on May 6, in which A&W posted a
       screenshot on X of someone saying, "missing the days when A&W had
       whistle dogs rn," with no other commentary other than "🤔".
        
       Then, things got a little bit more serious. A&W Canada's TikTok page
       posted what it says is an AI-generated video where they said they gave
       it the prompt "the most beloved hot dog of all time." The video shows
       someone presenting a hot dog. However, it's not confirmed whether this
       is actually the Whistle Dog or not.
        
       > An Instagram post and another X post went up with more screenshots
       > of people begging for the Whistle Dog.
        
       > Additionally, each of A&W's social media bios now includes some
       > mention of a hotdog. Instagram and X says, "Proud to serve Canada's
       > best tasting burger… and hot dog?" while TikTok says, "Burgers 🍔
       > Root Beer 🍺 Onion Rings 🧅 …. and Hot Dogs? 🌭"
        
       So what does this mean?! Quite frankly, we have no idea. We're just
       crossing our fingers that it's the return of the Whistle Dog. Many
       people have left comments on A&W's posts sharing a similar sentiment.
        
       "yall bring them back permanently pls," said one Instagram user.
        
       "I'm way too excited about this tease," said another.
        
       "Is this going to happen for real?!" said a third
        
       "guys don't play with me !!," added another user.

       the comments.
