For a puppy, there’s nothing more fun than chasing something.

It gets them so excited even without knowing what they’re chasing after. I mean, it’s just normal since pups (even grown-up dogs) are naturally playful.

However, when you let a pup watch a race, don’t expect them to be just sitting there while watching some runners on the field. You better put their leash on because they’d probably end up joining the race.

That’s what you might say as you watch this video of a track meet that took place at Logan High School in Utah.

It was just an ordinary track race until a dog entered the picture.

If you’re curious about what happened, you’re very lucky because that moment was recorded. And it has been going viral ever since.

The audience was focused on the event.

It was an intense one and all you can hear are murmurs of the crowd.

Different groups were cheering for their bets. It’s also noticeable how the runners were very determined to win the race. All of them clearly have the stamina of a real runner.

The adorable pup was running fast and suddenly joined in the race.

It was an unexpected moment, but that moment hyped up the audience as all of them were cheering for the cute pooch.

The runner leading in the race didn’t expect a dog to chase her.

Well, it wasn’t clear what the dog’s motive was for joining the runners but what matters is he made lots of people happy.

In fact, the dog had everyone cheering him on.

It looks like the pooch was serious about it as he was really running fast like the runners. Although the dog was the first one to get to the finish line, we all know that he was not the winner in the race.

But he definitely won our hearts. There’s no doubt about that.

“Cute how the dog was running with the leash hanging hahaha,” one viewer said.

A commenter even declared “the real winner” and his comment is just hilarious.

“That dog even slowed down at the end hahaha that dog should be the winner.”

The video has amassed nearly 1 million views in just a few days. This dog is a new social media star. What happened on that track meet was rare, but is there an event where dogs can race for real?

There sure are. There are races or marathons where dogs and their owners can run together. Among these events are the Annual Long Dog Derby, Atlanta Dog Jog, and many more.

These events are perfect to bond with your furry friends.
