HOMEGAME: one of the very best pet adoption ads ever created, featuring Rodger Saffold of the St. Louis Rams. It shows how you can use tears to INSPIRE, rather than depress or guilt-trip, people into action.

Christie Keith Yes, but perhaps most importantly, stop using ads that make people LESS likely to do so.

As usual, Sundance, trying to hurt me.

Randy Garvin Christie...I'm Conservative and Christian, but the one thing I know is God looks at you just like me a sinner. I don't like the Government telling gay prople what they can and can't do. That's between you and god.

Cheryl McGregor OMG and they had to put a westie on the package.

umm this is sort of an awesome idea. No having the trash bin inside the kitchen, just put it in the garage! VERY clever!

Cheryl McGregor Maybe not. At least not if you park in the garage. Off gassing?

A dog with her people in a British pub. My dream is to live in a place where you can hang out in a cafe with your nice dog. So civilized!

"Shemp" from The Shelter Pet Project. This is how you use potentially "sad" pet stories to tug people's heartstrings while INSPIRING, rather than DEPRESSING, them.

by TheShelterPetProject

Classic bad adoption messaging. Reinforces negative stereotypes. "Now I live in a shelter with other dogs who have been abused." And this is meant to ENCOURAGE adoption?

"Pets behind bars" with sad music. Good for generating donations. Bad for adoptions.

"The Apology Video" - Basically convincing people NOT to adopt. How does this help? It's just a big guilt trip. The fact that is has over 300,000 views is very disturbing.

Is it wrong that in the whole avalanche of cuteness that is the picture, what really caught my eye were the pink boots?

My first trip to Detroit's Eastern Market. Loved it. "No grumpy people."

It's a great photo and there's nothing about the look I don't totally adore, but I'm in physical pain, I want that bag so bad.

Definitely one of the best pet adoption ads ever. Short, sweet, simple, inexpensive to produce, and both funny and touching.

Nancy Campbell I need to check out this catalog you keep mentioning. A few of the items you've posted are a tad too girly for me, but I'll bet they have something I'd like.

I believe this photo.
