I'm a good dog *commercial*

Has anyone seen the new Pedigree dog commercial? I think it's so sad, makes me cry when I watch it :'(

Thanks for the tears!

I think it has a really good message, and like Stella said, maybe it will inspire people to adopt.
I am kind of a big deal!

I had to fight not to cry, i agree i wouldn't feed my dog pedigree but at least they are helping. Might have to buy a bag and donate it to the humane society.

Oh gosh, I was a mess the first time I saw that commercial.  Now when I see it - I change the channel.  Between their sweet eyes and the narrator's words - I'm a bubbling idiot... :'(

Please keep in mind I'm pregnant, so am also a little over-emotional with stuff like that! ;)

They have been playing that commercial on Animal Planet all day today. I think I have teared up every time it has come on. :'( What an important message they are sending out.

That is a tough commercial to watch but very valid in it content.  I'm like a train wreck watching it I know I should change the channel (I am a very emotional person and I'm not pregnant), but I can't bring myself to change the channel I feel like I have to watch it.

Unfortunately, the people on this board are not the people that the commercial is geared toward, they probably see the commercial and don't even hear the message.  Big meanies!!

All of the animals in the shelter get to me but the old dogs like 8 years and up breaks my heart how can someone get rid of such a good ole dog? (I know in some cases it is necessary like the death of an owner but I believe most are just "throwing away an inconvenience to them)..Gosh I hate people!!

OK Enough of my soapbox!!

That commercial is super sad, they had it on all day on Animal Planet! I love the message they're trying to get across though, and I LOVE that very last dog they show, how he cocks his head to the side, he's so flippin' cute!
