The Beaurepaires dog

Posted on March 24, 2015 | 2 Comments

Anyone in New Zealand notice that we have another dog-themed commercial to be proud of?

This time it is Beaurepaires, a chain of tyre (tire) retail outlets offering wheel alignments and related vehicle services.

The dog’s name is Mate and he replaces actor Vince Martin who was the face of the chain for almost 30 years.  Advertising execs felt that the marketplace is changing and they needed a hero to attract a younger audience.
