Smalltown Boy Dog Dance: Your Dogs Take Their Turn

Your two dogs up on their back legs: one paws at the lens and howls, the other answers, then both dance side by side. That's your Smalltown Boy dog dance, ready for the dog-park group chat.

Most Smalltown Boy clips are cats. Yours will be the dogs.

The dog version

What is the Smalltown Boy dog dance?

The Smalltown Boy dog dance is the dog take on the AI meme set to Bronski Beat's "Smalltown Boy": the first dog stands up in front of the camera, paws at the lens and howls, the second does the same, and then both dance side by side on their back legs before stepping up to the camera. Cats got there first, so a dog version stands out in a feed full of them.

Video tool

Upload a clear photo of each dog, keep the garden or tap the kitchen, fence or back-yard template, and the four beats are written for you. Got a cat and a dog? The Smalltown Boy AI homepage has that pair ready. Two cats? The Smalltown Boy cat dance has three cat templates.

The setter's howl

Head in both paws, mouth wide open, while the doodle bounces behind it. Long ears and all, it stays your dog.

How to do it

How to make the Smalltown Boy dog dance

Two dog photos and a few minutes for your own Smalltown Boy dog dance.

  1. Pick a photo of each dog

    Face to the camera, ears in the shot. A dog looking up at you for a treat is the ideal photo.

    Pick a photo of each dog
  2. Decide who goes first

    Slot one opens the clip at the lens. Slot two answers it. Then keep the garden, or tap the kitchen, the red fence or the back yard with outfits.

  3. Post it with the sound

    Download the clip, open TikTok or Reels and pick the Smalltown Boy sound so the first howl lands on the falsetto.
