More on Miller Beer's lost dog ad campaign

Someone has finally made a photocopy of the lost dog flyer Miller Beer has allegedly put out in the U.S. to complement their Dalmatian TV ads (my first post about this may be found here). I'm not surprised why people might find it insensitive and irresponsible; although it may have been an attempt at humor and was borne out of an ad war between Miller and its competitor Budweiser (Anheuser-Busch). In fact, as reported in Pet Rescuer Central, Bud has apparently reacted to the whole ad campaign by making donations to animal rescue groups and issuing out a statement (or more like a taunt) in the newspapers!Will more animal rescue groups start crying foul at Miller's ads?
What will you do if you had lost a pet and found this flyer right beside the flyer you posted for your pet? Me I'd probably rip it to shreds and start flushing beer down the toilet...
