I'm a dog. I haven't posted in a while because Alicia says she's been too busy with work and "life" to post cute photos and dog thoughts. I called her bluff this morning by showing her the following radio ad from McDonald's. (Note: The image that runs with the audio was created by a group that tried and succeeded in getting the ad pulled. I appreciate that they chose such a good looking pit bull to make their case. A picture of me would've been better, but this one was good.)
Now, I'll give them that they said "petting a stray pit bull," as I do not suggest petting ANY stray dogs*, but why did they have to make it a pit bull? Hasn't Michael Vick doesn't enough damage to our image?
Anyway, they did apologize, and pull the ad, which is nice. I just wish they hadn't created the ad in the first place.
*If you come across a stray dog, whatever the breed, you should call animal control and observe the dog's behavior for a while to make sure it isn't sick, injured, etc. before even attempting to get close.
