Woman Wonders What Her Dogs Do Home Alone—Can't Cope With Petcam Footage
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Wondering what her pups were up to while she was out, a dog owner decided to check her pet-cam, but she was not prepared for what she found them doing. The hilarious footage, shared on TikTok on Wednesday under the username @frantb3, shows the mischievous duo engaging in a fight over who gets to play with a piece of underwear they stole from their owner. "Me: [I wonder] what the girls are doing right now. The girls," reads layover text in the clip. It is not uncommon for dogs to show interest in their owner's clothing items, socks, and shoes, including smelly used ones. But a Dogster article medically reviewed by Dr. Amanda Charles says that they have their reasons. When your dog steals the stuff you wear, it is because it smells of you and they love your scent, so you should really be flattered rather than angry. It could also be that they are smelling something of interest, like food crumbs stuck in your socks. However, the dog might also be acting out of boredom, using destructive behavior as a coping mechanism. Dr. Jess Kirk says in a Vet Explains Pets article that there could also be a medical condition behind it, known as pica, characterized by a compulsive urge to eat nonfood items. Playing with your clothes is not only inconvenient to you, but it can also become dangerous for your pup if they accidentally ingest them, because it can lead to gastrointestinal obstructions. To make sure your pup doesn't get hold of any of your items, avoid leaving clothing lying around in the house and keep wardrobes and drawers closed. Stock image: Two small dogs play in a room.

One user, Yuadi Santander, commented: "One time I saw my dogs wearing a boxer, and it belonged to the neighbor's son. I don't know how it ended up in my yard, and the dogs kept stretching and stretching, and the poor little boy kept yelling, 'Nooooo!" GC Yazmin posted: "Mine were wearing my underwear on the street, between my three dogs. I was coming back from the store, so embarrassed because my husband was chasing them, wanting to take them off, because they were his favorites." Vi wrote: "They are checking the elastic, don't worry. They will last a thousand more times." Newsweek reached out to @frantb3 for comment via TikTok comments.

CNN's Abby Phillip Sums Up Trump-Musk Breakup In A Way You Might Not Expect
Abby Phillip brought viewers up to speed on the Donald Trump-Elon Musk split, in a hurry and in style, on Thursday. The CNN 'NewsNight' host used memes and gifs ― 'which Musk's platform [X] made famous,' she said ― to sum up the feud between the president and his ex-DOGE sidekick, who happens to be the world's richest man. The breakup has its roots in Musk's criticism of Trump's so-called Big Beautiful Bill. But once the president began to respond, the fallout accelerated in a volley of insults and threats. If the shocked expressions of Judy Garland, Matt LeBlanc, Eddie Murphy, Don Knotts, and others don't help you understand the extraordinary dissolution of their bromance, at least you'll be entertained.
