Sarah McLachlan may make audiences cry with her ASPCA commercials, but in Audi’s Super Bowl spot, she gives up the fight to save one particularly odd mixed breed.
VIDEO: Most Talked About Super Bowl Commercials
Entitled “Doberhuahua,” the car commercial opens with a couple in a pet store wondering which canine they should take home. As they’re torn between a Doberman and a Chihuahua, the store employee suggests, “You can always compromise and breed them together — Doberhuahua, you know what I mean?”
Unfortunately, it’s not a good idea, as the dog — composed of a giant Doberman head on a tiny Chihuahua’s body — is shown causing chaos at dog shows, dog parks and around the city. Even when posing alongside the musician in a fake commercial, as she asks, “I’m Sarah McLachlan — will you help these misunderstood animals?” the dog rips away her guitar, pushing the sympathetic singer to give up fighting for the breed and agree with the ad’s tagline: “Compromise scares us too.”
