Adorable Kids Tell Us Where Puppies Come From Only To End Up Tearing Our Hearts Up In New Ad For The Humane Society

The Humane Society of The United States asked kids and the answer isn’t as simple as you’d think. You can sign the Puppy Pledge today and help change the story for more dogs.

"The work is meant to appeal to anyone who has the tiniest compassion for animals and care about their ongoing welfare," said Rokkan CEO John Noe. "From a more actionable point of view, we also wanted to reach people actively looking to purchase a dog as a pet."

"Ask a child a simple question, and you'll get answers that are unfiltered, strange and beautiful," said Rokkan CCO Brian Carley. "These are the kind of answers we all wish were true. With these films, we take our viewers on a journey that's fantastical and silly, but it also makes it easier to tell the actual origin story that is cruel and hard to swallow."
