Sunny, the Obamas’ dog that is now living the life at the White House, has just committed the biggest faux-pas there is by knocking down a guest at a holiday party, while on a leash held by First Lady Michelle Obama.

As you can imagine, the whole thing was captured on camera. A GIF is also available below.

If you feel like laughing (after all, this was a harmless incident that probably happens whenever kids and dogs mix at parties, all over the world) but think you might feel guilty about it, laugh away: the girl who was knocked down by Sunny, Ashtyn Gardner, was not injured in any way.

Moreover, Mrs. Obama quickly came and scooped her up on her feet when she noticed what Sunny did, and even gave her a hug, and all was well in the world again.

Still, the look on Michelle’s face when she realized Sunny had just taken down a guest at her own party, no matter how tiny, is making the delight of celebrity pundits as we speak. I expect memes to pop up and go viral any minute now.
