Sorry, cats (and goats, for that matter). Dogs are leading the pack as viral advertising of 2015 so far, according to Unruly, with three canine-themed ads among the year's 12 most-shared spots to date—including two of the top four.

Along with the doggie-themed ads—for Purina, Budweiser and Kleenex—it's also been a good year for PSAs going viral. The Ad Council's famous "Love Has No Labels" effort comes in at No. 3 here, while an intriguing social experiment about violence sits at No.
