In a viral TikTok video, a dog owner from Greater Philadelphia checks his ring camera while he is at work, but he's not prepared for what he finds his golden retriever doing.
The hilarious clip, shared on Tuesday under the username @rosie.the.golden.girl, shows footage from his pet cam featuring the pup, Rosie, wondering around the living room while she is supposed to be crated.
"What are you doing? How did you get out of your crate?" he can be heard telling the pup, as she tilts her head sideways, trying to understand where the voice is coming from.
"POV [point of view]: You see this on your ring while you're at work and your dog is supposed to be in her crate," the owner writes in the clip. "Took full advantage of her crate door falling off this morning," he adds in the caption.
Leaving your dog home alone is often unavoidable, so it is important to prepare them gradually to avoid stress or even separation anxiety, says Nirvana Vets.
You can start by increasing the time they are alone while you are at home, then extend it to short absences. To keep your dog happy and entertained while you are out, walk them beforehand to tire them out both mentally and physically.
You should ensure that they have water, and food if needed, and offer a long-lasting treat or puzzle toy for stimulation. Leaving the television or radio on quietly can provide comfort, and YouTube even has 'Dog TV' options, with programs such as bird watching or virtual walks.
It is also important that you avoid making a big fuss when leaving or returning, and that you keep it calm and routine-based.
Create a cozy, safe space with their bed, toys, and an item with your scent. Dogs shouldn't be left for more than four hours; if necessary, arrange for a sitter or dog walker.

‘South Park' mocks Trump's DC takeover in upcoming episode
An upcoming episode of 'South Park' is set to make fun of President Trump's efforts to crack down on crime in Washington, D.C. A teaser for the Wednesday evening episode, released on social media and YouTube, shows the iconic character 'Towlie' arriving in Washington, D.C. As 'Towlie' gets off a bus arriving in the district, a tank rolls by in front of the White House while the character says, 'This seems like the perfect place for a towel.' Trump has sparked widespread backlash with his takeover of the local police force and mobilization of National Guard troops to help fight crime in D.C. 'South Park' has used the first several episodes of its new season to mock Trump and his allies, poking fun at the administration's deportation efforts as well as controversy relating to the Jeffery Epstein files. The show has targeted media conglomerate Paramount, the parent company of Comedy Central which earlier this year awarded the show's creators a new lucrative contract for rights to broadcast the animated satire program.

Aubrey Plaza's 'shockingly great analogy' for grief is resonating with grievers
The internet is resonating with Aubrey Plaza, who for the first time in seven months has opened up about her husband Jeff Baena's death. During a recent appearance on the "Good Hang with Amy Poehler" podcast, Plaza compared her grief to the 2025 action horror film, "The Gorge." "In the movie, there's like a cliff on one side and then there's a cliff on the other side and then there's like a gorge in between and it's filled with all these like monster people that are trying to get them," Plaza explained to her former "Parks and Recreation" co-star and friend. "I swear, when I watched it, I was like, 'That feels like what my grief is like.' At all times there's like a giant ocean of just awfulness that's like right there and I can like see it and like sometimes I just want to like dive into it and just like be in it and then sometimes I just look at it and then sometimes I'm like, I just try to get away from it, but it's always there." Since the podcast's airing on Tuesday, Aug. 19, fans have expressed appreciation for Plaza's analogy. 'Such an accurate depiction of grief' Many who have experienced loss are relating to her message. "I also lost my husband earlier this year. He was 32 years old and (it) was also a tragic shock. It means so much to hear from Aubrey and not feel alone. The description of her grief experience is resonating so much," a YouTube user commented on the "Good Hang" podcast episode. "That's such an accurate depiction of grief. I appreciate her vulnerability and love seeing her laugh and just hang out with a good friend right now," another YouTube user wrote. "'The Gorge' was a shockingly great analogy for grief, but I hope she realizes that if you stare across the gorge, like the movie, there is always someone who wants to help," another YouTube user commented. Others have shared their praise for Poehler, who helped Plaza speak about her grief for the first time since Baena's passing. "Aubrey's body language and vocal cadence seemed uncomfortable and uncertain towards the beginning," another YouTube user commented. "And rightfully so, as I can't imagine the kind of grief she's dealt with this year. About halfway through, the tension eased. Kudos to Amy for providing Aubrey a space of normalcy – to sit with a friend and loosen up even just for an hour." Jeff Baena died in January Baena, 47, was found dead inside his Los Angeles home on Jan. 3. The cause of his death was determined to be a suicide and no foul play was suspected. Baena and Plaza were allegedly separated at the time. Plaza had not publicly commented on Baena's death since she released a joint statement with his family, calling his death "an unimaginable tragedy" and requested privacy.
