Here’s another fantastic myth-busting Ad Council spot! See details below.

Have you seen the new Ad Council TV campaign of hilarious vignettes shedding light on how animals end up at shelters? It’s great!

According to the Humane Society of the United States, about 1 of 5 domestic dogs and cats in this country were adopted from shelters. If we can move that figure to 2 out of every 5, then nearly all of the 4 million shelter dogs and cats euthanized every year would have good homes!

One of the reasons people buy pets from pet stores, Internet sites, and breeders they don’t know is they think those dogs and cats will be healthier or better behaved than those in shelters. It’s a myth! This video series pokes fun at this common misconception.
