The CEO of Weather Tech has personally paid $6 million to run a 30 second advertisement seeking donations for the veterinary school that saved his dog from a cancerous tumor on his heart last year. Millions of people will see the ad and it could generate a lot of money for the programs at the university's veterinary school. I think this is brilliant!

This story gets me in all the feels and I can't watch the commercial without tearing up a bit so be prepared!

The actual commercial:
