That dog in the ad is the Softbank "Dad" dog. Softbank is one of the big 3 mobile carriers here, they used to be called Vodaphone.

The dog is part of an ongoing sketch, where he TALKS, and is the father of a family of a Japanese middle-aged wife, a younger daughter, and a mid-30s african-american in a suit.

It's an odd plan to sell phones here.
