Ruff side of marketing

The Barkleys are a family of dogs that have promoted Subaru cars in a number of commercials over the years, but getting the pooches to perform isn’t always straightforward.

A video from the marque goes behind the scenes and shows some of the canine actors veering off script, such as licking a steering wheel and tipping over a bucket.

The Barkleys have been a key part of Subaru’s #dogtesteddogapproved campaigns and provide plenty of furry fun while promoting vehicles.
