We all wish we had the key to taking advantage of viral marketing to get our message out.  It's a factor that we can never promise to manufacture, but it's a tool that is accessible to everyone if you get the right message going.

These kids got it right.  Their formula: cute kids, a clear call to action, and a cause we can all support but with no cost to us in time, effort or cash.  Debates about whether this family is a good candidate for a dog non-withstanding, in our hearts most of us think every kid/family should have dog.
