There’s something undeniably special about Subaru’s dog commercials. Whether they’re behind the wheel, on a road trip, or just enjoying a simple adventure, these four-legged stars always steal the show. And if you’re a dog lover, you already know—every time one of these commercials airs, it’s an instant mood booster.
That’s why “The Beach,” one of Subaru’s most delightful ads from their “Dog Tested. Dog Approved.” campaign, is an absolute must-watch. It’s a heartwarming, hilarious, and completely relatable look at what happens when a pack of pups gets to enjoy the perfect day at the beach.
From the moment the dogs roll up in their Subaru, you can feel the excitement in the air. The doors swing open, and suddenly, it’s gone time.
They hit the sand running—tails wagging, ears flopping, paws kicking up little clouds of golden dust. Some make a beeline for the ocean, leaping into the waves with pure joy, while others take their time, sniffing the salty air and surveying the scene like seasoned beachgoers.
The personalities of each dog shine through in the best way. There’s the adventurous pup diving headfirst into the water, the laid-back one lounging on a towel like he’s been waiting for this moment his whole life, and the mischief-maker digging the biggest hole possible—because what’s a trip to the beach without getting completely covered in sand?
Then there are the little moments that make this commercial extra special. The playful chases, the head tilts, the water-shaking chaos that soaks everyone within a five-foot radius—it’s the kind of joyful chaos that every dog owner knows all too well. Subaru doesn’t just make commercials; they capture real-life dog moments and wrap them up into the most wholesome, feel-good packages.
But beyond the cuteness, what makes Subaru’s “Dog Tested. Dog Approved.” campaign so loved is its authenticity. Subaru has always embraced the idea that dogs aren’t just pets—they’re family. And whether they’re riding shotgun, embarking on a road trip, or, in this case, having the ultimate beach day, Subaru commercials remind us of the happiness our furry friends bring into our lives.
So, if you need a reason to smile today, watch “The Beach.” It’s a guaranteed dose of happiness, packed into a minute of wagging tails, sandy paws, and ocean-soaked fur because nothing says pure joy quite like dogs living their best lives.
