(A continuing analysis of advertisements that appear in “The Trucker” newspaper.)

| Do some truckers actually have a dog on board their rig? This pup sure looks sad. Maybe his driver wouldn’t make a potty stop and he pooped in back. Actually it’s probably the advertiser playing at the emotional strings of the trucker. “Awww sad doggie.” But does that really convince drivers to join their company? Oh wait, I’m sure the bullets as cute dog bones will get truckers to sign up by the dozens. No no. It’s gotta be the burst in the lower left saying “No Canada.” While we’re at it, can we take Florida off the list? But PLEASE join Davis Transport Inc, so we can make this a happy dog. |  |
poor dog. i feel sorry for him. That’s worse than owning an apartment and have a huge dog. I can’t believe people do that. That’s cruel. The “No Canada” starburst is funny, but I can see how truckers don’t like dealing with the border patrols. Imagine if we had the same regulations when traveling between states. Our founding fathers got lucky there. I was curious to know what “Hazmat” is. It stands for Hazardous Materials.
