This got banned? I saw it quite a few times on TV. The reason is absolutely pathetic. Even worse than when the really good Xbox advert got banned:

It could have a negative effect on children!!!!!! The advert clearly glorifies gun violence.

[bo$$]

lol, that's lame.

The dog shaking or the Xbox ad :P

I can't believe that, that's an incredibly stupid reason... How is that violence? It's shaking... If they removed it because of cruelty to animals, then they (the advertising agency) are the ones promoting cruelty to animals...

LOL the Xbox 360 advert was excellent. Yes it kinda promotes violence, but it's taking the 'piss' out of it if anything...

[GhostFace-]

that xbox one was awesome.

that who cares the dog may have been cold or sumtin.

[Asher]

The dog looks sad and neglected in comparison to the singing dog, lol. I bet the banning was the result of all the extreme animal activists complaining the dog looked/was mistreated.

But it was awesome. :'(

Surely the obvious thing here is that it looked mistreated... Not was/is? The NSPCC adverts should be banned, they're promoting mis-treated children and chucking them down the stairs!!

[Asher]

well, I don't know what these advert people do!!! How did they get the dog to shake?

Lol that advert is great :P It promotes oral sex, naughty naughty :P I am sure the advert people who ban them are dreadfully serious, negative people. The sort that drink expensive red wine all the time as if it's water.

[Firehorse]

I think it was a great advert. Everyone in my school likes it. Probably a whole lot of old people reported it.

Old people should be banned from communcating such people...

Please dont tell me you got warned for posting the advert link.

[Yoshimitsui]

I remember when they banned a marmite advert, the one where it was like a huge gewy monster. Apparently parents complained it scared their children.

.... Mrs.McCall cannot be serious..?

LOL at yoshi.. Every advert has issues. I am sure the advert of the girl who 'is hit at 30mph and has an 80% chance of surviving' could be banned for scaring people.

Nah it wouldn't. It's the government that bans adverts and that advert is made by the government purposefully to scare people.

Bit weird that they ban other adverts that are not there to intentionally scare people though, especially when they're not gory... That's life though :P

[Cavaz]

The dog proberly likes it... Arghh

[stratosphere2]

Apparently they gave the dog drugs to make it shake.

[Marcinator]

Good, it's an absolutely crap advert.

[MizMe93]

I heard that apparently the dog was on a machine thingy to make it shake?

Also, Its pretty obvious why that Xbox advert was banned, but all the same, I LOVE THAT AD :P
BANG!

[Decapitated!]

No, the dog was on a vibrating floor plate.

[Hitman]

I've seen the ad a few times on TV. :P My dog shakes when it's very happy or needs the toilet. :P

[Alexicles.]

I dont know why its banned. I mean it isnt portraying animal cruelty, it's supposed to be advertising a car. :S

[Kasabian]

Bloody stupid.
I loved that xbox advert, ******s.

well said

I think it's whoever is complaining is the one at fault. The advert isn't portraying cruelty to animals, but the sick, twisted people who made the complaints are the sickos thinking the dog is being cruely told to do that.

Why do people assume things when what they are assuming is the exact opposite is what I wonder, the dog amy look like he is being cruely told to do that, but the key word is look, not is.

[Catzsy]

Well it doesn't surprise me some activists have got a sheep shearing contest banned in Kent because somebody might nick their skin with a razor? It's all getting way too Politically correct. We won't be able to walk the dog soon in case it hurts something.

[Florx]

I liked that advert.

The dog is not confident when not in the car that's why its shaking but to ban it is just ridiculous!

Yet another case of PC gone mad.

You're joking? I wonder if my brother gets these sorts of issues at the bird of prey sanctuary...

Actually, thinking of that, one person complained saying all the birds should be in the same avery or flying loose. :P They will all kill each other or fly off :P

[Eamonn]

OMG I love that advert :X
