PuppySwap prank ad goes viral and
educates about pet abandonment
The Toronto Humane Society pulled an educational prank on the public by posting a video for “the world’s first puppy subscription service" to YouTube on Jan. 8. The service allows its users to purchase a puppy they can love until it gets older and less desirable. Users can then swap out their grown-up dog for a new, fluffy and more "likeable" puppy. By Jan. 13- only 5 days later- the video has had over 79, 000 views and a slew of online comments.
