A tiny dog named Trip Hazard took the 2024 Crufts Dog Show by storm with his impeccable, Disney-themed performance. Entering the Freestyle Competition with his handler, Lucy Heath, this little pup delivered an impressively choreographed routine to songs from The Lion King. One onlooker caught the cutest video of the act, and it’s received over 13 million views on social media. We could watch this precious pooch all day!

In the clip, Trip Hazard began his performance with a dance set to Circle of Life. Without any direction from his handler, the dog carried out a series of adorable movements that were perfectly timed to the music. He even interacted with props scattered around the ring, including a fake cliff which he climbed with ease.
At the center of the ring, Lucy waited, curled up in a ball, for Trip Hazard to “awaken” her. Once he did so, the pair embarked on a mesmerizing routine together. They moved with perfect synchronicity as the little dog wound through his handler’s legs and vaulted over her extended arms.
Wait until you see the next half of the act!
It looks like the above video might have been taken from a rehearsal before the dog show, because the official recording from Crufts shows Lucy Heath wearing a different outfit. She and Trip Hazard also appear to be performing in a different ring.
After the Circle of Life routine, the pup and his handler began a second act set to I Just Can’t Wait to Be King, which was equally charming.
This video from Crufts includes some background information on the talented little show dog. Apparently, Trip Hazard is no stranger to fame — he’s been in several commercials and an episode of Silent Witness! According to the Crufts website, this pup’s Lion King performance earned him third place in the Freestyle Competition.
We don’t know about you, but we’ve totally fallen in love with Trip Hazard after seeing his dance moves!
