GoDaddy Pulls Puppy Ad + Thanks You For The Extra Publicity! [VIDEO]

Super Bowl ads are usually pretty controversial...and this year it seems there are even more than usual.  Is viewership dipping?  Or are advertisers just desperate to get their $360 million-worth!?!

GoDaddy.com is no stranger to controversy, and the ad mocking the Budweiser puppy got LOTS of flack, so they pulled it.

Instead of a happy reunion with his owners, a puppy is sold online to what appears to be a breeder.

While they pulled the inital ad because of the backlash, they say they still have another one in the bank to run during the game.

Buddy has now been adopted by the company and given the title "Chief Companion Officer" with his own Twitter account:  @GoDaddyBuddy

Gald you're safe, little guy.
