There was a commercial several years ago...I think it was for Tractor
Supply Company. This family is gathered around the dinner table, and
first, thanking The Lord for the food He had provided, and for His
Blessing and Protection, etc. The family dog is under the table, as if
praying as well. As soon as the father says "Amen", and the folks begin
to graze, the dog bounds out from under the table, and heads upstairs.
He pulls open a chest of drawers, and starts digging around, looking
for an item. He does this several times, until he finds out what he
wants...a gas mask!! It turns out the family is consuming beans,
legumes, and other items that cause severe flatulence.

Having found his prize and putting it on, the dog rushes back to the
kitchen, and the family has been completely oblivious to the dog's
actions. Fido lays down, contentedly, under the table, with the gas mask
on.
The announcer comes on and says "We have what you need"...and then, it
shows the logo for Tractor Supply Company.

I like the one, where after a meal, Daddy has to loosen his belt. One
of his kids, tells his friend (who had joined them for dinner), "Daddy
just moved his decimal point over a few places".
