You've got to be kidding me??! I clicked and watched the vid and saw a dog acting, not dog abuse. I guess they weren't paying attention to the shot towards the end of the clip where the dog's tail is up and wagging. Some people have nothing better to do with their time than to turn into grabastic pieces of shit.

Daft isn't it? Really, the first whiff of genuine animal abuse and I'd be there, adding my complaint but it's so clearly just normal dog behaviour from a healthy, happy dog. Insane. really.

It's such a great ad, too; I always look forward to seeing it

Another thing... why was it filmed in California?? It's a British ad for a British car that had to have been shipped over specially for filming - the car is right hand drive! More madness! *g*

Having only seen the ad on the YouTube link, I'd speculate that they didn't use a real car. Putting the steering wheel on right side would be easy enough to do on a car no one's really gonna drive.

And I'm right there with you on the animal abuse! But from what I understand, any time an animal is used in film (USA) a rep from the Humane Society has to be on set.
