Leo Burnett recently completed its first [Morrisons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uk-supermarket-chain) ad and it targets dogs with a high-frequency note that can't be heard by humans. The "Doggy dine in” Valentine's Day promotion brings awareness to the brand's [Dine In For Dogs meal deal](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/deliveroo-and-french-bandit), where pet owners can treat their furry friends to an evening of fine dining.

The ad opens with barking and a voiceover that gives details of the meal deal. Throughout the ad, there's a high-frequency note that only dogs can hear. Unbeknownst to humans, there's a reason that pets seem to respond so well to the ad when it comes on the radio.

To support the radio ad, Morrisons is working with a handful of [dog influencers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/merry-chaos) like The Puggy Smalls, Pop Sausage and ItsPomegranate.
