Millions of devoted dog owners are woefully unaware that their pet’s health can be seriously affected by lungworm – a parasite carried by slugs and snails.

With the objective of engaging thousands of unsuspecting dog owners via social, online and traditional media, we created a world first – an Instagram account for a snail. Welcome @DangerousSnail25!
All content was shot by our in-house team and our snail went on to live a happy life in Green Park.
To amplify the story we worked with dog-lover Ben Fogle and enlisted media vet Luke Gamble.
