I'd like to point out something wrong with this ad. I disagree with its main contention: this advertisement is not about dog food, nor does it treat with dogs.
Folks, I kept dogs for many years and I've been around them all my life and I happen to know that dogs would be much happier nosing into a big steaming pile of animal byproducts than they would "wholesome whole grains" or "garden veggies and fruit".
If your canine companion can't survive without designer pet food or customized nutritional supplements then what you have isn't a dog it's an accessory.
So, as a favor to us actual dog lovers out there please refrain from calling Fluffy or Mr. Pebbles by the name 'dog' in the future. Thank you.
The irony? This ad is actually from the back cover of the latest edition of National Geographic. The lead story is "Inside Animal Minds". Somehow I doubt that vegetable dog food will make the cut.

Do Dogs Dream of Vegetables & Grains?

C'mon, Nathan!
Youu know that this all dates back to when wild dingoes tore apart a haunch of arugula and the arctic wolf tracked the wily muskeg.
It's ingrained in those carnivores. Rover craves nothing more than a nice wedge salad with the tomatoes on the side.
