FUN FACT - DO YOU REMEMBER THIS SUPER BOWL COMMERCIAL?
In this 2012 VW Beetle commercial an overweight dog named Bolt works out to lose weight so he can race the new car down the road. This was a highly guarded project due to the success of the prior year's commercial. Everyone was anticipating what they were going to come up with for 2012. About a month out, producers for the commercial contacted JOG A DOG and we hooked them up with a JOG A DOG treadmill borrowed from a Veterinary facility near them. They trained the Australian Shepherd–St. Bernard mix on the JOG A DOG. In fact they liked the JOG A DOG so much they requested written permission to air our treadmill in the commercial. Unfortunately, the storyline must have taken a slightly different direction.
