What is the dancing pet trend and how do you make one?

Updated · Reviewed by The Rift team

Short answer

The dancing pet trend shows a pet doing a popular dance, usually standing on two legs with the same moves and camera as the original. It's funny because the pet is so serious about it. In Rift, share the dance video, add a full-body photo of your pet, and tell Spark, Rift's video agent, 'my dog does this'. Tap Make for a video up to 15 seconds.

Share the dance video, add a full-body photo of your pet and tell Spark “my dog does this”. Spark copies the moves onto your pet and keeps the camera of the original.

Questions people ask

Does my pet need to stand still for the photo?

One sharp full-body photo is enough. Eye level, daylight.

Can a cat and a dog dance together?

Yes. Add a photo of each and say who's on which side.

Can the pet wear a costume?

Yes. Say the outfit, like a tiny tracksuit or a party hat.

Does it include the song?

Rift makes the video. Add the trend's sound when you post.
