In an adorable two-minute animated ad spot, Hill's Pet Nutrition reminds consumers to not overfeed their pets. Using a heart-tugging pixar-like animation, this commercial follows the story of an elderly widow who adopts a pet dog in the wake of her husband's death.
Happy to have someone accompany her, the woman shares her hobby of cooking, which she used to share with her husband, with her new furry friend. Eventually, after plates of spaghetti and steak, the dog puts on so much weight that he can no longer walk up the stairs. This, is when the woman realizes the mistake she has made, and begins replacing her pet's lavish meals with a bowl of Hill's Pet Nutrition.
