Two adult couples are gathered in a living room. One couple sits on a love seat holding drinks while the other couple plays guitar and claps. All are watching a dog standing in the middle of the room, dancing while wearing a tutu.
It is unusual for a dog to be able to stand, dance and wear a tutu.
How can the dog dance? Why is the dog wearing a tutu?
That's the last time we brag about our kids.

Here, the couple with a child on the couch bragged about their child's accomplishments, and in response, the childless couple bragged about their dog's accomplishments by showing off its unusual talents (dancing to music). This is a bit excessive, and plays on the idea that couples without children often can be a bit defensive about their lack of children: they are expressing this defensiveness by training their dog to compete with the human children they don't have.
