A video of a dog gleefully jumping on a trampoline appears to be providing Americans and Britons with a welcome distraction after a grueling U.S. presidential election.

The video—an advertisement for the British department store John Lewis—features “Buster the Boxer” jumping on a trampoline before his new owner can get a chance with the tagline “gifts that everyone will love.”

Viewers said the video gave them a smile after the U.S. presidential election results.

I'm glad the @johnlewisretail ad was happy this year (even bouncy, you could say). I've desperately needed a smile since yesterday.

John Lewis’s Christmas ads have become something of a tradition in Britain since they debuted in 2007, and thanks to the Internet, they’ve made their way to viewers around the world.
