Watch pair of dogs pull up at Walmart in Tesla

This is very reminiscent to the infamous line from the "Mean Girls" movie "Get in loser, we're going shopping."
A pair of dogs were spotted cruising in the parking lot of a Walmart in Eugene, Oregon, on Monday, Nov. 9, in a scene that almost looked as if one of the pooches was steering the Tesla as it made its way toward its owners.
“We had our Tesla on pet mode while in Walmart," the dogs' owner Tyler Stone told Storyful. "We summoned the car. Nova was in the driver seat, Titan in the passenger. He is a window dog and obsessed with the window, so he rolled it down and it made it perfect when he popped his head out. It looked like they were picking us up and driving."
Titan, 6, is a 100% purebred pit bull, while Nova, who will turn 7 next month, is a 94% pit bull and 6% chowchow, Stone said. The two are "very bonded" and have to be with each other 24/7 "or they get separation anxiety."
Stone told USA TODAY that Monday's incident was "the first time we summoned the Tesla this way, and it looked like they’re driving, but they do often get in the front seat when we have the Tesla on pet mode."

'I laughed so hard I cried'
The incident had Stone and others in Walmart in fits, the pet owner said.
“It was so funny. I laughed so hard I cried. People coming out of Walmart were laughing as well,” Stone said.
Stone said there have been times when the two dogs are in the car and Titan "will purposely honk the horn and stare right at us."
The pooch, however, does not stop there. Stone said Titan always rolls down the car windows "all by himself sometimes," prompting them to deploy child safety.
