In a campaign created by Rokkan for The Humane Society, kids are asked to explain where they believe puppies come from. In a short video, kids offer up some adorable answers, with one little girl confidently stating that all puppies come from New York City. Another says that they come from a magical place where they get to wear rainbow outfits and lip gloss. Their answers are accompanied by whimsical illustrations of dogs as they act out what the children are describing. While the ad starts out innocently enough, it takes a dark turn about halfway through when the children explain where many puppies who are bought online and in pet stores actually come from – dirty, crowded puppy mills where mother dogs are not treated well. The video ends with a simple message - "Change the story for more dogs" - and encourages viewers to sign a "puppy pledge" to stop puppy mills.
