An 11-month-old in California was recently captured getting stuck in a doggy door. Thankfully, the girl was fine and the adorable and hilarious video clip has quickly gone viral on TikTok.

Lauren Amadea shared the video of her daughter Leila to TikTok earlier in September. She told Storyful the girl was following in the paw-steps of their family dog, a French bulldog named Louise Marie.

"At the end [of the video] you can hear in her baby gibberish 'I stuck,' and my pup Lulu looks at the camera as though she can't even believe it," Amadea said.

Amadea told "Good Morning America" that Leila and Louise Marie are "best friends," and even though it appeared in the video that Leila was trapped, her daughter was unharmed in the incident.

Amadea also said they have a doggy door cover, which they now use when Leila starts crawling.

"Everything is babyproofed. She is perfectly safe," she told "GMA." "Her grandma just thought it was so silly so she wanted to share the video with her dad and I. Then, she immediately helped her out of that position, of course. Leila was just being silly but never in any real danger!"
