He teases the family and friends surrounding them by deliberately delaying the moment.
When he finally sets it off, a jet of pink smoke bursts into the sky.
Sandrita is ecstatic and jumps up and down.
As she bounces in elation, her pet pooch flies from her grip, turns through the air, and lands on the grass off-camera.
The Colombian woman doesn’t even seem to notice the pup’s plight as she throws her arms around her fella’s neck.

The couple kiss as their onlookers cheer and the air fills with confetti, as reported on What’s The Jam.

She joked that “the dog’s reign has come to an end”.

But not everyone saw the funny side.
Fernando claimed: “You have to be very bad people to treat an animal like that.”
Lisette added: “Dressing up and subjecting a pet to live in conditions that are not appropriate for its species is animal abuse.”
Juan remarked: “I don’t know what they’re laughing about. It’s abuse. Hopefully, they won’t treat their future daughter the same way.”
And Luigino said: “Poor animal.”
Many, however, made light of the situation.
Andrés joked: “I felt like that little dog when my parents told me I was going to have a little sister.”
Mabeth quipped: “The little dog has left the chat.”
And Alejandro captioned a screenshot of the pooch mid-flight: “At that moment, Fiona realised she wasn’t the princess of the house anymore.”
