Old Yeller Dog Food?

I was looking at the grocery store advertisements the other day and I stumbled upon something that made me giggle. It was a dog food called "Old Yeller Brand Dog Food". This was a marketing fail if I ever saw one. I can see the slogan now. "Feed your dog Old Yeller and within a few days he'll come down with a bad case of rabies and you'll have to take him behind the barn and shoot him! Old Yeller - kill your dog the old fashioned way!" This just doesn't work, does it? Here's a pic so that you all know I'm not making this up.

I'm not a dog lover, but even that is cruel! Old Yeller Dog food! Ha!

Maybe its a Japanese dog food company and they think Old Yeller is a good name because it had its own movie?

I agree, serious fail. It almost sounds like it's made out of old Yeller. Yuck! For contrast, I feed my dogs Wellness dog chow.
