A woman trying to capture a typical moment from her dog got a big—and hilarious—surprise.
Her TikTok video of the moment has left the internet in stitches, showcasing her husky, who thwarted her attempt to document the dog's escape habit by stealing the camera mid-act. The footage has resonated with countless husky owners who are all too familiar with the breed's mischievous nature.
"POV: You try to record how your dog has been escaping the backyard, but she had ideas of her own," the woman, @kimberlyjaidyn08, captioned the video, which shows the phone set up to film their husky's antics in the backyard. However, before the camera can capture her secret, the dog grabs the phone in her mouth and runs away.

"Oh," one commenter reacted. "I've never been carried by a dog before."
TikTok users were quick to react, many acknowledging the breed's well-known intelligence and Houdini-like tendencies.
"You're not supposed to show a husky where the camera is," one person wrote. "They too smart for that (I have three)," one commenter warned. Another user imagined the dog's thought process: "Mom forgot her rectangle, which is so weird, cause she takes it everywhere, I'll take it back to her."
The escape artist reputation of huskies was also a recurring theme in the comments.
"Once I saw that she's a husky, I knew it was over (I have a husky that also loves to escape, so I had to get a really long lead for her, so she can't miraculously hop the fence)," one user shared.
Another TikToker wrote: "She's a husky. They're father-in-law's husky jumps their chicken wire and metal fence all the time, especially when it storms. He just goes to the front door though."
"I was warned by my boyfriend (he has a husky and recently have a husky puppy to our little family) that they are Escape Pro," another added. "But this is so funny and cute."
The American Kennel Club (AKC) describes the Siberian husky as "a thickly coated, compact sled dog of medium size and great endurance." They are known for their "keen but amiable and even mischievous expression."
Beyond their appearance, huskies are renowned for their high energy levels and a strong desire to explore. The AKC noted that Huskies are energetic and love a chase—secure running room is "a must," so, it seems the creator definitely provided the right environment for her sly pup.
The breed's sociable nature also plays a role in their behavior. The AKC stated that as pack dogs, they enjoy quality time with their owners and other dogs. This combination of intelligence, energy and a friendly disposition makes for a dog that is both endearing and capable of surprising its owners with its antics.
