"Her Mom Said I Treat Her Like A Dog": Man Faces Backlash From His Sister For Getting Her Kid A Pup Cup From Starbucks 

Carolyn Mullet

We love Starbucks because of the delicious drinks and the perfect service for customers. They not only allow our furry friends to join us at their seating, but they also have a special drink just for dogs to enjoy while we have our coffee.
The drink, known as a puppuccino, is a cup of whipped cream with no coffee in it. It will be served in an espresso or sample size cold beverage cup for your pup. It's one of the most popular Starbucks Secret Menu items and baristas are always happy to make one if you ask at the tills.
Although the drink is commonly ordered for dogs, it also makes a great drink for kids who shouldn't drink any caffeinated beverages. But one man on Reddit has faced backlash from his sister for getting his five-year-old niece a drink from Starbucks. The man just wanted to get his niece a healthier drink, but her mom assumed it meant he was "treating her like a dog".

In the popular subreddit “Am I The A—hole”, this man explained that he took his niece Evie to the zoo to give his sister and her husband a break. On the way home, they stopped off at Starbucks. He ordered a pup cup for Evie as she wanted a cup just full of whipped cream. She loved it, and the man was happy about that.

When the man dropped Evie home, the little girl told her mum about her wonderful day and included the tasty treat she enjoyed at Starbucks. The man then joked with his niece about her being the cutest dalmatian.

But the joke didn't go down well with his sister. She was angry at him for getting her kid a treat for dogs and claimed it was 'degrading.'

Hard no, Reddit quickly responded to his post. Everyone agreed that he was not wrong for getting his niece the pup cup. Many users pointed out that the treat is the same whipped cream Starbucks puts on all the other drinks, and it’s a clean paper cup.
