Nice campaign, guys! I don't get this one, though.
Where's the link between hydrants and dogs?

Love the shoes and frisbees, but this doesn't do it as well. Peeing on fire hydrants is hardly the stuff of (happy) dreams.

Peeing, alright. Prefer the other ones.

Don't think this is about fire hydrants in particular. Could've been a light pole, a car or the watchman's chair. But then fire hydrants look better than all of those.

Love all three of 'em.
