Animal lovers, hold on to your leashes, because you're about to be blown away by the incredible levels of cuteness in the 'Beneful' [slow-motion dog food ad](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/merry-chaos). Created by Missouri-based agency Bruton-Stroube Studios, the 90-second advert shows various dogs of all shapes and sizes eagerly rushing towards a bag of Beneful, all captured in slow motion.
