If you've ever wondered how the classic Will Smith sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air would fare with a dog in the starring role, the [parody video](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/puptalk) 'The Fresh Pup of Bel-Air' is perfect for you.

The clever and funny 'Fresh Pup' video is designed to increase awareness of [stray pets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adopt-me) and [pet adoption options](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/best-adoption-event-ever). Let's just get this out of the way now; this video couldn't be cheesier if it were projected onto a block of cheese during a wine and cheese tasting while a photographer takes a picture of a group of people saying "cheese!" Seriously, it's that cheesy, but that's also part of the memorable charm of the video that has Fresh Pup Will Sniff busting out mad rhymes about the story of how he was adopted into Bel-Air.
