Shih Tzu puppy skillfully manages to escape from the cage

Where there’s a will, there’s a way – and for this determined pooch, a metal gate wouldn’t stop her from roaming free.

Adorable pup Houdini has gone viral on TikTok for orchestrating an ingenious escape route from her enclosure.

Your owner has posted on the account @okie_que and has garnered over 5.5 million views for the footage captured with his security camera.

That Video shows the little Shih Tzu biting the bottom of the metal gate to bring it closer to her bed.

Once the cage is in the desired position, she climbs onto her cage bed – which is twice her size – and tries to climb down from it.

She grabs the gate with her front paws and pulls herself impressively over it before jumping to the ground and scurrying away.

TikTokers were amazed at their clever skills and impeccable planning, with one person saying “Big Entrepreneur Energy”.

One fan wrote, “What an escape artist,” and another commented, “This dog deserves freedom at this point!”

“Clearly he’s a pro, wagging his tail all the time… This isn’t his first rodeo!!!!” said one viewer.

Another TikTok video that’s sending people into hysterics is the Valenzuela family’s attempt to complete a popular dance routine.

The video, which has been viewed more than 44 million times, shows her dog kidnapping her fourth member of the dance group.

Marti and her brother are dying for the show to go on and their parts of the song to continue – while their smallest member rolls the dog around on the floor.

One person said “I’ve never laughed so much” and another commented “When the task is more important”.
