Anyone seen this advert?

It's advertising biscuits (Oreo's). I've seen this a couple of times and it's just made me think it's a bit irresponsible? For anyone who hasn't seen it there's a very small child waving the biscuits in front of a dog's nose and then eating them himself with no parental supervision in sight at all. In light of the recent media frenzy regards dogs biting children I was suprised to see this advert. I know it's only an advert but it just got me thinking.

Anyone seen it?

I see your point, but those who think its irresponsible will not have their minds changed by an ad and those who would will likely have done daft things round their dogs already.

Love Oreos though.

It is stupid considering the % of bites which occur over food and it seems to be endorsing it but at the same time I have to agree with Stormey and anyone who lets their child alone with a dog because of what they saw on an Oreo ad shouldn't be in charge of sprout never mind a dog and a child and are already an accident waiting to happen despite the ad. JMO.
