Move over Pug, time for Jack Russell now


India promptly fell in love with Pugs after a series of advertisements by Hutch Telecom for their Mobile services, circa 2005-07.  One of the last was this ad, when Hutch became Vodaphone.

Pug in Hutch ad
(update July 2013:  The Google Video link seems to be dead - hence the link and not the video)

Price of Pug puppies shot up from around Rs. 4000/- to more than Rs. 20,000/- when the ads were the rage.   Now, there are reports that a Jack Russell terrier has scared a mountain lion up the tree.

Hmmmm!
So who is going to make an ad out of it?  Like a 3G provider driving an older generation provider up and away?

And drive the price of Jack Russell terriers through the roof!  At present it seems they sell for Rs. 15,000/- 
When someone buys one, hope the adorable Jack Russell does not turn into this :-D
