Dogs rule

The new Pedigree dog food campaign, I love it. I love the narrator's voice and I love the way he says the words, we're for playing, romping, gnawing and nipping. We're for puppies. I love the images of the dogs and puppies. And I love the tag line, Dogs rule. I am sitting here with the tv on right now and I'm actually hoping for the commercial to come on.

I haven't done this since the Hallmark commercial around Mother's Day where the little girls are sitting with their Mom on the couch and going through a box of her saved cards. They find one from their Dad where he's signed it Boo Boo or something like that and they just go into giggle fits when they realize it's from their Dad. And he peeks above his newspaper and grins at his wife and daughters, sort of embarrassed and sort of proud. Love that.

Before that commercial, it's a long stretch back to the last one I loved. That was a McDonald's commercial from years ago where the children are wearing golashes and yellow rain coats, walking in the rain (no doubt to McDonalds) saying in unison, Quack Quack Waddle Waddle. That one always brought a smile. I miss it.

The Pedigree one is lost on me for the purpose though - I don't feed Cheyenne Pedigree dog food. BUT, I do agree with them, dogs do rule. Especially this one (at least in my life).

I gotta agree with you- great commercial. I'm pretty good with voice-overs and I think that's David Duchovny.

Every time I hear the voice in that commercial, I intend to google it up and see if anyone else thinks that is David Duchovny... glad to see I'm not alone :)
