The main draw of the Cozmo robot toy from [Anki](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flashcard-generators) is its apparent charm and mischief-making, having been billed by the company as "the little robot with a big brain and a bigger personality." Essentially, Anki sees the Cozmo robot as a real-life version of Wall-E. To make consumers appreciate that quality as well, Anki has released new series of [marketing videos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/life-in-stitches), entitled #Cozmoments, depicting some fictional situations in which the [cute trouble-making robot](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luka-robots) might find itself.

The first video in the series shows the Cozmo robot doing what many toddlers might also do: teasing the dog. The teensy bot sneaks up behind a lazing golden lab, bops it on the tail, and laughs as the confused canine runs off to a new sleeping spot.
