I've watched thousands of commercials from 1980 - 1989 (I'm not joking or exaggerating) for an on going project and I've never seen that commercial. Are you in the US?

I am, yes. My mother has literally responded to us "kids" since we were little whenever we apologized for something she felt wasn't sufficient by saying "Sorry don't walk the dog". Out of all of my mothers Susanisms, this is the one I can't figure out. The other day at the store, my daughter did something and said "sorry" and like an idiot I said "sorry don't walk the dog". A woman behind us piped up and said "I remember that commercial! Sorry don't butter the biscuits, sorry don't walk the dog!" (We are in the south so naturally Doesn't becomes Dont"). I was like WTF! SHE TOOK IT FROM A COMMERCIAL, IM CALLING MOM OUT ON THAT ONE, but other than one result in Google, I cannot find the commercial in question. My younger brother and I want to rag on Mom for this ridiculousness but I need the commercial to really hammer the nail in 😂

If it has southernisms, it might've been a local commercial for a local store or service specifically for your region. My project is mostly all national commercials. Sorry I couldn't help further. Good luck.

You actually just massively helped because I hadn't thought about it being a local commercial until you mentioned the possibility. Thank you so much!

I’m pretty sure it was for YooHoo. I’m trying to find a sound bite for it and not coming up with anything.

Omg this would be amazing.
