(i know for a fact that willy's cousins, braveheart, angus, and gibson can be brutally honest when they feel that dogdom has been maligned by incompetent or clueless marketing execs who honestly believe that dogs like being dressed in ridiculous costumes against their will). <BR/><BR/>We often have group discussions in our home office, and comment about various commercials, and what possible demographic the creators were looking for, because it sure as heck wasn't us. The 3 dogs usually vote as a block, dewclaws up or dewclaws down as each commercial plays. They were seriously disappointed in this year's superbowl commercial crop.<BR/><BR/>Among the successful ads (3 dewclaws up) were California Cows, Bud Light Swear Jar, the Doghouse<BR/><BR/>At the bottom of the list are too many to name, but among them are Free Credit Report.com, anything with Billy Mays, ShamWow, Progressive, that are all 3 dewclaws down. <BR/><BR/>Anyway, great job, Monica, and thanks for giving the dogs a place to comment on the marketing that they are subjected to involuntarily, every time they have to stay here alone with the TV on. They tell me that sometimes they'd trade a hind leg for just one thumb.4leggedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13834211414244365297noreply@blogger.com
