A TV pet expert hits out at the use of dogs in adverts.
Kevin Horkin MBE, who has appeared on a number of animal-themed TV shows in the UK, has accused the marketing industry of unjustified over-the-top reaction over use of pugs and bulldogs in adverts.
“The British Public aren’t stupid," said Kevin Horkin. “
For me this is a de ja vie moment and reminds me uncomfortably about what the establishment were trying to achieve with the introduction of the dangerous Dogs Bill in 1991.”
