It is hard to keep a dance party going when the music button quits on a talented dog. And Joey found this out the hard way during his latest hallway performance. This sprightly Maltipoo usually has no trouble keeping the rhythm at @joeytmaltipoo. However, his favorite yellow music button decided to stop cooperating right in the middle of a killer routine. According to his bio, he is all about cute daily moments and funny moves, but this technical glitch totally ruined his mood.
Dog doesn’t like it one bit when music button stops working, ruining dance time
The video opens with Joey already standing in the hallway beside a yellow button placed on the floor. He taps it with his paw, and music immediately starts playing. That is apparently his cue. The second the song begins, Joey starts bouncing on his front legs, tail wagging nonstop.
Besides the adorable footwork, his ears flap all over the place as he hops happily. You can tell he is really enjoying this. Then the music stops, so naturally the dance stops, too. Joey presses the button again, and the music starts playing again. Problem solved.
Round two somehow gets even cuter because this time he adds a spin while hopping around. Tiny performer behavior. Then the unexpected happens. The music cuts out again, but when Joey presses the button this time, nothing happens. He stares at it for a second, like maybe the button simply needs time to start working. Then he presses it harder. Still silence.
That is when the frustration starts setting in. Joey looks away dramatically, glances back one more time, and finally shoves the useless button out of the way with his paw before walking off completely offended. One viewer joked, “I swear he said ‘WTF,’” while another wrote, “Love the tantrum at the end.”
Honestly, the final little push of the button feels like the funniest part of the clip. Joey was ready for another dance number, but the equipment simply failed him.
