to think that REAL puppies are so much cuter than the horrible digitised 'Andrex' ones.

Annoys me every time I see that advert. Real pups are so much cuter than digital ones surely?

That ad is creepy!

valiumredhead · 29/06/2012 16:26

Yes it's horrible now, I miss the real pups!

AmandinePoulain · 29/06/2012 16:26

I thought exactly the same thing last night, those puppies are creepy and the real ones are so cute!

sooperdooper · 29/06/2012 16:26

Agreeed, I have no idea why they changed it, it's horrible now, nothing is cuter than puppies!!!

squeakytoy · 29/06/2012 16:34

probably because they were so cute that people kept breeding them, and children wanted them.... a digital puppy is a lot easier to look after too.. Wink

I hate the new look and I have stopped buying Andrex

SPsFanjoLovesBrokenBiscuits · 29/06/2012 16:46

Puppies are cuter! Don't like the new adverts.

Didn't buy andrex anyway. I buy cheap as I'm only wiping arses with it Grin

I agree - creepy is exactly the right word for it

Doesn't stop me buying their loo roll

I prefer the digital pups i am sick of seeing real animals used in ads etc for our enjoyment...

NarkedRaspberry · 29/06/2012 17:50

They are odd, but much better than using puppies.

Pekka · 29/06/2012 17:51

I agree OP, real puppies are much cuter. I am glad they are using digital ones though, they wouldn't have been able to get a real puppy do all that stuff without much stress for the puppy.

I'd imagine it's quite difficult to get a Labrador puppy to independent brush it's teeth though

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 29/06/2012 18:01

I couldn't agree more - the digital ones are creepy.

manticlimactic · 29/06/2012 18:07

I don't like them but mainly because they do 'human' things but they do look weird. I understand why they don't want to use real puppies but surely they could have them doing puppy things like the real ones did.

As an aside my 15yo DD was horrified to see that Bananas in Pyjamas are now CGI. Her exact words were 'I feel sorry for the younger generation Hmm
