Gear for twisted puppies
Article Abstract:
Canine Equipment has launched new TV commercials that target the offbeat sense of humor of dog owners. One commercial endorses the very bad dog gear, showing a dog pulling a radio over into the bathtub where his owner lays. The company is also set to unveil a product line for dog owners called Canine Equipment Buddy, which includes strap-on packs to hold poop bags and a line of vests. The two TV ads for Canine Equipment were created by ad agency Aviator Pictures of Vancouver, Canada.
