Have you seen any of new "Pupperoni" commercials yet? No? You can
find them here:

Not that it's anything new, but I find it disgusting that pet
food companies and marketing agencies play on the emotions of pet
owners so much for promoting poor quality treats. Here are the
ingredients for these "special treats" that lets your dog know "you
are listening". Do you really want to feed this junk?
