Looks like a cockerpoo type thing to me

Or a Cavapoo.

Cocker poo = cocker spaniel and poodle?

Google is so helpful and free...

Just like when using babies or young children for TV, producers and directors like to use twins or even triplets to have extra little actors on hand in case one isn’t in the mood to ‘play ball’. To record the Puppy ad, we had five beautiful, cockapoo puppies on set. In the final edit of the advert, the one you’ll see on your TVs, you’ll see both Ruby and Elsie playing the part of our pup, Axel

Cockerpoo, the Mumsnet favourite

[Livedandlearned]

I think it's a cavapoo

[ILoveMaxiBondi]

Well I can see why it’s a favourite, it’s bloody gorgeous. I’ve never seen one IRL.

[BusySittingDown]

They are so cute! Crazy though at times.

I’m not in the market for any dogs. I have a big furry horse brute on the sofa beside me who owns all of my heart but I saw this advert and thought it was the cutest pup I’d seen in a long time. It also resembles fried chicken from certain angles.

But it's a problem as there are many people who would seek out a dog just like it based on looks with no regard to temperament.

When 101 Dalmatians were a hit there was a big increase in sales (and poorly bred ones).

People I know still say 'dulux' dog (old English sheepdog)

Andrew puppy (golden lab)

It sells the product and attaches itself to that image. The reality of these dogs temperaments is often not considered.

I know this doesn't apply to you op, I just think it's an interesting topic.

[sleeplessinsomewhereelse]

Andrew? I mean Andrex obvs

[ILoveMaxiBondi]

Oh yes I can totally see that. People are very easily led aren’t they? Show them a cute thing and they go out and buy it. It’s only a few hundred quid, right?

[TillyMint81]

Probably more like £1000 for these crossbreed pups now 😱

[ILoveMaxiBondi]

wow!
