VAUGHAN, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Dec. 8, 2011) -

Editors Note: There is one video associated with this press release.

Humans aren't the only ones drooling over Pizza Hut's new Ultimate Stuffed Crust pizza - the canine community is also begging to sample the cheesy meat-filled crust!

To celebrate the launch of the Ultimate Stuffed Crust pizza, Pizza Hut partnered with Andrew Grantham, producer of the YouTube sensation The Ultimate Dog Tease to create a side-splitting sequel that depicts just how far dogs are willing to go to try to get at that leftover pizza crust.

"Pizza Hut has built a reputation on being generous with toppings - we offer the cheesiest, meatiest, tastiest pizza in Canada," says Arlene Stratton, Senior Marketing Manager, Pizza Hut. "Well. Things just got a whole lot cheesier and meatier! Just when you thought it wasn't possible to pack any more toppings onto a pizza, we stuffed them into the crust. It's like having a whole other pizza inside your pizza."

The Ultimate Stuffed Crust pizzas - available for a limited time at restaurants across Canada, now until December 31, 2011 - can be enjoyed two different ways: Pepperoni Ultimate Stuffed Crust, stuffed with pepperoni and a cheesy filling and the Meaty Ultimate Stuffed Crust, with pepperoni, mild sausage, beef topping, bacon crumble and, of course, a cheesy filling.
