Excited Dog, Tiny Child, Balloons. What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

Indy the Labrador got a bit *too* excited at his family's gender reveal party.A couple’s gender reveal accidentally went south after their excitable Labrador got the zoomies during a pivotal moment. Lia Singer and her husband Brandon are expecting their first child together and thought it would be fun to have their dog Indy involved in the gender reveal at their home in Oregon, US.“My idea had always been to tie balloons to him and let him out into the yard,” Lia told HuffPost UK.“However I was not thinking about how he runs into the yard and gets zoomies every time we let him through the gate.”Lia said the couple were “so excited to find out the gender”. They’d invited friends over – and many of them had brought their kids with them.“In my head he [Indy] would just run to us and it would be a sweet moment,” said Lia.Unfortunately it didn’t quite work out that way. (And yes, we all know where this is headed...)View this post on InstagramA post shared by Indy the Yellow Lab (@indyyellowlab)The excited Labrador, complete with a flock of blue balloons attached to him, went charging into the garden, straight past the couple, and mowed down one of their friend’s children.The poor kid was knocked down like a bowling pin – and the chaotic moment was captured on camera. “Both the kid and dog were totally unharmed and we all had a good laughabout it,” said Lia. “The kid was given the balloons and pizza as consolation. I’m not sure if my dog even noticed what happened!”When she shared the clip on her Labrador’s Instagram page, it unsurprisingly went viral. At the time of writing, it’s been favourited over one million times.The couple are expecting their baby boy to be born this November and said they’re “looking forward to Indy hopefully being a more gentle big brother”.Here’s hoping!
