Hot Dogs are canine enemies covered in flames that appear in Yoshi's Woolly World. When Yoshi approaches them, they start attacking by shooting Fireballs, although Yoshi can grab these with his tongue and turn them into yarn balls. Hot Dogs can be defeated by throwing a yarn ball at them and then jumping on them. In World 2-8 (Bunson the Hot Dog's Castle), Kamek transforms a Hot Dog into the boss of the level, Bunson the Hot Dog.
Hot Dogs only appear in two courses, which are Bunson the Hot Dog's Castle, and Wonderful World of Wool.
