He then runs out to meet his little boy only for his glasses to snap in half trying to get out the doggie door.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/gizmo-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-27547 size-medium\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/gizmo-2-690x389.jpg\" alt=\"vision direct\" width=\"690\" height=\"389\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.petspyjamas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/gizmo-2-690x389.jpg 690w, https:\/\/www.petspyjamas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/gizmo-2.jpg 854w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 690px) 100vw, 690px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The advert then goes on to show similar situations where Gizmo\u2019s glasses and bad eyesight get in the way of him playing fetch, or watching a Christmas movie with his boy. The advert ultimately leads to the boy ordering his pet a next day shipment of contact lenses so he can stay out of trouble over the festive season.<\/p>\n<p>Despite being an advert for contact lenses, the Christmas puppy outfits and Gizmo\u2019s delightfully squished Pug face will put any dog lover in the Christmas spirit! Using John Lewis\u2019s formula for a tear jerking and heart melting Christmas advert, this short story is a must-see.<\/p>\n<p>Watch Vision Direct&#8217;s full Christmas advert
