    Subaru commercials with retrievers

    I know I'm not the only fan of Subaru's Barkley family, the golden and yellow lab retrievers who drive around in Subarus. Four new Barkley commercials have been released: Sucuri WebSite Firewall - Access Denied


    My favorite is the driving lesson.

    LOVE them. They even have a distracted driving warning.

    But, you know the Border Collie one? Where they dogs all run home after the Subaru, and one puppy cannot keep up? I don't understand that one. What did the people do? Dump the dogs out deliberately, to let them chase the car home?

    According to a description of the ad, they were all out working in the field and mom rang the dinner bell. The puppy couldn't keep up so dad picked him up and the slowpoke was the first one home for dinner.
    I just learned it was filmed on a farm in Ont.

    Thanks for the link Sue Ram. I NEVER saw the whole commercial. I always wondered why there wasn't a hue and cry from dog people about the versions I did see. They were truncated and really did look like the people dropped the dogs off and made them run home.

    I don't understand the concept... but the border collie that Subaru uses (the older one) is owned by our trainer. Pretty neat dog!
