CARPINTERIA, Calif., June 15 (UPI) -- A California toddler being prompted to smile for the camera was unable to comply due to an unusual distraction: a sunglasses-clad dog driving an electric car.

The video, posted to Instagram by user @napkinapocalpse, shows a toddler being pushed in a toy car by a man outside of a California home.

A woman's voice prompts the boy, Sammy, to smile for the camera, but the toddler seems more interested in something behind him.

Sammy's distraction soon comes into frame -- a French bulldog named Pam taking a cruise in an electric toy car and blasting some chill tunes.

The woman shouts for Pam, who is decked out in sunglasses, a T-shirt and a headscarf, to "move," and the dog drives forward out of frame while the boy watches in stunned fascination.
