Internet Can't Cope With What 140-Pound Dog Does When Owner Leaves House
Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content.
When a pet parent stepped outside for a moment without her dog, he stared and waited for her, but his unawareness of her reentering through a different door quickly went viral.
Courtney Blake told Newsweek via TikTok that her dog, Zeke, knows the laundry room door well. It connects to the garage, which becomes a signal to him that she's usually leaving. But, more often than not, this 140-pound boerboel of "pure entertainment" comes along.
"Zeke goes EVERYWHERE with me," she said. "If I go outside, he goes outside. If I go run errands, he comes along for the car ride."
However, in her July 5 TikTok video posted to the account @court_knee_b, Blake walked through the laundry room door without Zeke. The large dog thought she had left without him, even though they were just outside together.

She only went out again to bring in her sister's dog. But with the canine being on the other side of the yard, Blake entered through a different door. When she came back inside, she saw Zeke staring at the door.
"I was like, 'What the heck are you doing? Zeke, I'm over here, bud,'" she said. "He didn't turn around, and then I saw him tilting his head, I'm like he's really listening to me thinking I'm on the other side of the door."
Stunned that Zeke didn't connect the dots, she began recording. Blake kept talking to Zeke, telling him to turn around and that she was there, but he never turned around. Instead, he twisted his head back and forth, trying to understand why she wasn't coming in through the door.
He pawed at the door. His tail wagged as she spoke. Blake even inched closer to him, and yet, nothing.
When he did finally turn around, he looked at her with confused eyes. He wondered how she had magically appeared there. Relieved that she didn't leave, he walked over to greet her.
With the clip bringing in more than 1.6 million views and 339,100 likes on TikTok as of Monday, people couldn't stop cracking up at Zeke's misunderstanding.
"It's him tilting his head when you talk that was hilarious," wrote one viewer, while another added: "The fact that you went closer and nothing changed."
A third person jokingly asked: "Zeke doesn't have a whole lot going on upstairs, does he?"
Someone else pointed out: "But can hear you open a bag of chips in the basement underneath a blanket and the TV blasting."

Labubu Love-Fest: Megan Thee Stallion Proudly Parades The Gifts Her Man, Her Man, Her Mannn, Klay Thompson Got Her
Now that Megan Thee Stallion and Klay Thompson are Instagram official, they're not being shy about their relationship. Source: Justin Casterline / Dimitrios Kambouris Just a few days after hard-launching their romance, Megan Thee Stallion and her man are expanding their relationship to another app! The Houston native took to TikTok to post a video of the sweet gifts her 'man' got her, posting a six-minute video of her unboxing the Labubus from the NBA star. While she doesn't reference Klay directly, she's sitting on his lap during the unboxing, gushing over the figures as she opens each one and admitting blue is their favorite color as a couple. While Thompson spent a lot of his NBA career with the Golden State Warriors, he went to the Dallas Mavericks last year, which could explain their color choice. The baller never shows his face in the video, even getting shushed by the rapper when he starts to mumble in the background. But, still, she ends the TikTok thanking her man for the Labubus, referring to him as 'baby' a lot throughout the video. For some reason, Meg deleted the video from her TikTok page—but it doesn't seem like a negative mark on their relationship, as Klay's IG hard launch is still up. Rumors of a relationship between the stars first started last week, when Meg posted bikini pictures with a mystery man in the background. Fans immediately noticed that the man lounging in the background of her photoshoot looked like Thompson, and a few days later, the baller confirmed their relationship with a photo dump—including one picture of them sharing a kiss, and another of the pair holding hands. Prior to her recent pop-out, Megan Thee Stallion most recently dated Bulls player Torrey Craig in 2024. While the pair never announced their breakup, it seems like the Grammy winner kept it pushing after his ex threw some shade—plus, a model accused him of dirty dog DMing during the relationship. Now, she's on to bigger and better things, going from dating a bench-warmer to cuddling up with a future Hall of Famer. As for Thompson, he was most recently linked to Laura Harrier, though they kept their relationship fairly private.

Soft serve nails: The viral summer manicure that's as sweet as it sounds
There's a manicure trend that's making its way not-so-stealthily across Tiktok, celebrity fingertips and salon chairs this summer, which is just as sweet, smooth and nostalgic as it sounds. Cue soft serve nails: A delectable, milky dream of a manicure that blends the best bits of a French manicure with a gel ombré and - you've guessed it - ice cream. A creamy, buttery array of subtle, sorbet shades, whipped pinks and creamy nudes that melt seamlessly into sheer, milky white at the nail tip, soft serve nails are finished with a high-gloss top coat. Think colour that is seamlessly 'churned' - if you will -with no beginning or end: strawberry and vanilla swirls, subtle raspberry ripple or even creamy apricot. This is a manicure breed that blends minimal elegance with playful charm. But why - when nail trends come and go as they do - has this one gone quite so stratospheric? Put simply, it's feminine, low-effort and utterly versatile, but still delivers the quiet elegance and understated luxury that we all want and need right now. Then of course - of course - there's the fact that it aligns with the clean girl aesthetic which continues to reign supreme and go absolutely nowhere fast. Yes, this is the kind of manicure that doesn't shout or scream, but steadily clocks up compliments everywhere from the coffee queue, to cocktails and nursery pickup. Celebrity manicurist Harriet Westmoreland (@harrietwestmoreland) has earned a global reputation for her meticulous work in recent years, and has done much to take minimal manicure trends like this one viral time and time and time again. Queen of the modern French, she has been sliding variations of the soft serve into her summer appointments and social feeds over the last months, keeping her iterations glossy, clean and short. Then of course there's our perennial manicure muse, Hailey Bieber who has been out and about in LA this summer with a soft blend of pinky nude with whisper-white tips. Word has it - just F.Y.I that her go-to picks are OPI Bubble Bath and Funny Bunny. Of course you do! Ask your nail tech for a soft ombré or milky gradient using milky, pastel shades. Or fancy some DIY? Apply two coats of your chosen varnish before adding a dot of creamy white polish onto a sponge and tapping it onto the tip of the nail, building up intensity slowly until you have the seamless gradient required. Finish with a glossy topcoat like Seche Vite instant Gel Effect Top Coat (£9.95, for that irresistible ice cream shine. My personal picks to try this trend? Essie Sugar Daddy, (£8.99, OPI Nail Polish in Funny Bunny and Bubble Bath (£15.60 each, Manucurist Natural Nail Polish in Blossom (£14, Hermes Nail Polish in Rose Coquille, (£46, Biosculpture Nail Polish in Sweet Candy Breath, Peach Whip and Strawberry French (£15.50 each, plus The GelBottle Gels in Daisy and Gloss.

Simply spend 30 seconds a day brushing these on your teeth and then go about the rest of your life instead of having those Crest Whitestrips that have to sit on your teeth for upwards of an hour a day. Plus each pen gets you about 20+ treatments whereas one box of strips is only 16 treatments. A container of Albolene moisturizing cleanser reviewers are loving as an equally effective — and much more affordable — makeup remover compared to Clinique Take The Day Off balm. Massage this balm on your face and watch your makeup melt away. Or a makeup cleansing cloth that works just like the MakeUp Eraser to remove A L L your makeup by just adding water…yes, even waterproof makeup. Buhbyeee wasteful makeup removing wipes!

Just stick one of these bad boys on your pimple overnight and be amazed (/disgusted) by the results when you wake up. The Face Shop's Rice Water Bright Foaming Facial Cleanser, which could basically be the only step in your skincare routine if you really wanted it to be.

A L'Oréal illuminating moisturizer to instantly give you a ✨glow✨ while also hydrating your skin. The subtle tint will provide you a nice, light coverage on those days when you absolutely *cannot* with a full face of makeup. Elizabeth Mott's Thank Me Later Eye Primer, which will help make sure that smoky eye (that you spent way longer on than you'd like to admit) actually lasts through the night instead of melting off your face as soon as you walk out the door. Maybelline's Total Temptation Eyebrow Definer Pencil to transform your sparse brows into the full ones of your dreams. You can make 'em bushier than a bunny's tail if that's the vibe you're going for. A six-piece set of high-performance matte lipsticks so you can have ~options~ and still pay less than what you'd pay for *one* color of another brand. Don't worry, just because they're inexpensive doesn't mean they are cheap — reviewers are saying they perform just as well as those more expensive brands. Nyx's Pore Filler Targeted Stick to give your skin the ultimate ~blurring~ effect that'll help smooth and reduce the appearance of pores. It's pretty much the closest you're gonna get to Photoshop in real life and won't even cost you 10 bucks.

And it won't break the bank. Dare I say we have found the holy grail of soaps?! E.l.f's Lash Xtndr Tubing Mascara which is super futuristic and ahhh-mazing for anyone with thin or fragile lashes.

A lip liner stain you apply, leave on for a little while, and peel away to create a perfect, long-lasting liner that'll stay on for up to 24 hours!! Promising review: "I've wanted to try this lip stain ever since I saw it on TikTok last year. It didn't disappoint either. The lip stain is thick, but goes on smoothly and leaves such a beautiful color. It will stain wherever it touches, keep that in mind when using it. I left mine on for a little longer than suggested and it lasted into the next day. 10/10 highly recommend!" —murphlovesitGet it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in six shades). Gold Bond's firming neck and chest cream formulated with aloe, salicylic acid, and jojoba oil to help hydrate, smooth, and gently exfoliate your skin — with most people seeing results within two weeks (and some even less)!

Plus there's just something about a quick spritz onto your face that's so refreshing. 😌 Annnd it's a cheaper alternative to the beloved Tower 28 SOS Spray. CoverGirl's TruBlend matte concealer that blends so seamlessly you might be ready to ditch the foundation forever and strictly use this (under $10!!!) concealer.
