What are your favorite animal commercials?
Edited on Tue Feb-12-08 12:43 PM by Greylyn58
As I was watching tv the other day, I realized that their are certain animal commercials that I probably have seen a million times, but I always stop and take time to watch them again and again.

I have several current favorites and one that is a few years old. They either bring a smile or a laugh or touch my heart in some way.

I love all the current PetSmart commercial, The dachshund and his toy, the bulldog who meets his little sister puppy and the obedient Great Dane.

I also love the Pedigree commercial with the dog called Echo that hasn't been adopted--makes me cry every time.

But one of my all time favorites is a Stainmaster carpet commercial, where this guy is watching tv and gets up to get a snack. A pet mouse signals to the cat who in turn signals to the dog who pushes an ottoman in the path of their owner. As he returns with his food, he trips over it, spilling food everywhere. The little mouse who is living in a small house stands with his paws straight up as though he has scored a touch down.

When the man returns, the carpet is clean and the plates and glass are neatly plied up and the carpet is spotlessly clean. The camera zeros in on the mouse who gives a small burp before he and the dog and cat all turn and walk down the hall.

Makes me laugh every time. So what are your favorites?

2. Good news. I read that Echo was adopted last November!
Who could walk past that cage and not take Echo home with them?
