Dog x Panda Takes the Biscuit

Posted By Ryan O'Meara Date: 28/05 Posted Under: Funny Dogs

Never let it be said that advertising agencies won’t take a concept originated by someone else, steal it, adapt it and use it to sell stuff to you.

History is littered with ad agencies using their creative talents to spot people with creative talent and creatively use that person’s talent to promote things to us in a talented, creative manner.

Last year the web was collectively ‘ahh’ing’ at the dog that looked like a panda. Look, here he is…

Dog panda - Danda

and here again, only in video form (aint this worldwide web wwwonderful?)

the black and white heartbreaker was affectionately labeled a ‘Danda’ by many who marveled at this adorable sight. (Clever, eh? Dog x Panda = Danda. See?)

And today, apro pos of nothing in particular…a ‘Danda’ finds it way onto our TV screens to sell us biscuits.

    What about Panda x Dog = Pog

    How about:

    Advertising Executive x unoriginal idea = Rich Idiot

    The only true Fox’s is the Glacier Mints, accept no others!
