Hearts Aligned is an eye-opening filmed demonstration that proves, using live heart-rhythm data, that being close to your dog is healthy for us as human beings. We discovered that the bond shared between human and dog is so close, that our hearts will align with one another - two completely separate species sharing one healthy heart-rhythm.

We launched Hearts Aligned on World Health Day, starting a conversation about the good dogs bring out in us. Our film struck a chord with the current psyche of Australians and the world.

We engaged with our audience on social media, telling real stories of the good that dogs have brought out in their owners. Encouraging people to tell their own stories, we created a simple #HeartsAligned donation mechanic that raised money for PetRescue.com.au, a charity organisation that helps find lost or abandoned pets a loving new home. This enabled our audience to give back to the thing that has made their lives so much better - dogs.

The data we revealed directly impacted the consumer in a profound way, showing the unique bond they share with their dog using real-time data. The data proved that the bond shared between human and pet is much stronger than they thought, and had dog owners thinking about their dogs in an entirely new way.

The film had over 3 million views, and was watched across the globe. Hearts Aligned was featured in over 100 major local and worldwide media outlets. From mainstream publications like the Herald Sun to online global news outlets like Huffington Post and Mashable. Traffic to Pedigree.com.au went up 1260% from social referrals during the launch period, which had been re-skinned for this campaign, which then saw 10% of traffic continue on to Pet Rescue (our charity partner). The website bounce rate was halved and time spent on the site was tripled.
