The strategic challenge consisted of translating a century of science into a close, emotional conversation with a real purpose for the country&#8217;s families.<\/p>\n<p>In Colombia, more than 60% of households with pets live with a dog, and the vast majority of them are mutts. Despite their popularity, there is a false social perception that, due to their nature, mixed-breed dogs can be fed generically with &#8220;anything.&#8221; This notion is reinforced by the commercial label of &#8220;unknown breed,&#8221; a limiting concept that conditions how owners understand their pets&#8217; health.<\/p>\n<p>To break down this bias,<strong> LLYC accompanied the brand as an integral strategic partner from creative conception and alliance management to the optimization of the agency and media ecosystem.<\/strong> From this joint effort, <strong>#OriGENCriollo<\/strong> was born, a campaign where storytelling and scientific innovation came together to prove that, while the exact origin of a mutt dog may be a mystery, its comprehensive well-being must be approached with nutritional precision.<\/p>\n<p>The great innovation of the project lay in bringing the most advanced science closer to everyday household decisions through an alliance with the <strong>BioPetGen<\/strong> laboratory. Through saliva genetic tests, we provided owners with a real tool to decode the DNA of their mixed-breed dogs. By revealing the biological roots of each pet, the campaign delivered evidence of its uniqueness: key data to understand if the dog requires a reinforced high-protein diet due to its energy level, or if it needs a higher fiber intake according to its lifestyle and age.<\/p>\n<p>The execution of the campaign, which documented the genuine reactions of families upon discovering the origin of their companions, confirmed that brand relevance is built on authenticity. #OriGENCriollo not only consolidates Purina Dog Chow\u00ae&#8217;s legacy, but also sets a new standard for how contemporary branding can solve cultural issues by uniting science, strategy, and creativity under a single promise: &#8220;Together we protect what matters.&#8221;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1120\" height=\"630\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OnFYG8hsVMw?si=YeEOysYwLprIcHAn\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Celebrating 100 years in the market is a milestone, but for Purina Dog Chow\u00ae the true challenge of this centennial was to project its leadership into the future through a profound transformation of its portfolio in Colombia.
