Video: Golden Retriever Struggles Between Craving & Morals Until He Gives One Up
Golden Retriever's cheese craving is so big his morals can't keep up in video
In the hilarious video, the Golden Retriever, Beau, enters the living room and spots string cheese in his owner's hand. The twist is that the pet parent is sleeping while holding the same, putting the dog in a conundrum.
The on-screen caption sets up the scenario: 'Pretending to fall asleep with string cheese in my hand.' What follows is a playful narration that embodies Beau's inner monologue, as he tries his best to resist the temptation to eat the snack.
The narration begins, 'Cheese? Don't mind if I do.' Beau begins licking the same, but soon looks around to read the room. He observes, 'Wait, this smells fishy. Dad sleeping? Not fishy. But not finishing his food? Def fishy.' This is when the Golden decides, 'I'll just stare until he wakes up,' resting his head on the couch, and staring at his human while waiting patiently.
However, Beau's resolve is tested. 'Well, that's not working. I can't wait any longer. I'm doing it,' the narration continues. The pup's conscience kicks in again as he pulls back after a couple of licks. 'I got this. Am a good boy, not bad,' the narration goes. Beau reasons, 'Maybe I'll just kiss dad till he wakes up,' gently licking his owner's hand instead of the cheese.
There is a moment when Beau suspects his human is waking up, and he strategizes to 'act like you're being a good boy,' pretending to fall asleep. He realizes it was a false alarm and decides to change strategies.
'Activate aggressive lick sequence,' says the voiceover, as he increases his efforts to have his owner drop the cheese. Finally, the cheese tumbles out of the pet parent's hand, and Beau celebrates with 'Winner, winner, cheesy dinner.'

Trump on Sydney Sweeney controversy: If she's Republican, ‘I think her ad is fantastic'
President Trump on Sunday weighed in on actor Sydney Sweeney and her recent controversial ad campaign with American Eagle. 'You'd be surprised at how many people are Republicans,' the president said after a reporter stated that the 'White Lotus' and 'Euphoria' star is a registered Republican. 'That's what I wouldn't have known, but I'm glad you told me that. If Sydney Sweeney is a registered Republican, I think her ad is fantastic,' the president said while en route back to Washington on Sunday evening from Bedminster, N.J. BuzzFeed reported over the weekend that Sweeney has been registered to the Republican Party of Florida since June 2024. The ad featuring Sweeney has caused backlash online, with social media users criticizing what they claim are racist undertones surrounding the campaign's message that Sweeney 'has great jeans,' a riff on the idea of 'good genes.' 'Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality, and even eye color,' Sweeney says in one video. 'My jeans are blue.' Vice President Vance mocked critics of the ad in a recent interview, blaming Democrats for those who argue the commercial backs eugenics. 'So you have a pretty girl doing a jeans ad and they can't help but freak out. It reveals a lot more about them than it does us. No question,' Vance said on the 'Ruthless Podcast.' White House communications director Steven Cheung pointed to the backlash as an example of 'cancel culture run amok.' The Hill has reached out to a contact for Sweeney for comment.

Catherine Zeta-Jones & Michael Douglas Reportedly In Trouble In Paradise Phase After His Retirement
Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas have allegedly hit a rough patch ahead of their 25th wedding anniversary. The famous couple is entertainment royalty for their stellar achievements in the industry and their years-long relationship. However, their blissful marriage, per sources, is not what it used to be after the "Basic Instinct" actor's retirement. Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas tied the knot in 2000 and welcomed two children, son Dylan and daughter Carys. Despite their 25-year age gap, the couple withstood the test of time and their differences, including a brief split in 2013. Catherine Zeta-Jones & Michael Douglas Are Allegedly Facing A New Relationship Challenge According to new reports, Douglas's decision to leave the entertainment industry has allegedly impacted his marriage to Zeta-Jones negatively. An insider claimed the renowned actress wasn't upset that her husband chose to retire; instead, she was displeased by the amount of free time he had. "She's not begrudging him the right to give up his career, but knows it means they'll spend more time together, and she's not going to get the quiet and peace of mind she likes. It's going to be a challenge for Catherine having Michael around so much," the insider explained, telling RadarOnline: "The marriage has worked best when they had space from each other. At one point, they were living in separate houses in Connecticut, and Catherine loved having her freedom." The Oscar-winning Actress Reportedly Needs Space From Her Husband The source added that Zeta-Jones wasn't the type to enjoy spending time idly with her lover, noting that her need for peace and independence was stronger after her children left home. She wasn't the only one dealing with the empty nest syndrome, but Douglas chose to fill that space with her presence. Zeta-Jones reportedly did not wish to spend all her time with her husband and pushed him to attend events alone or travel, according to the source. "She'd like more space, but she's not going to get it, and he'll be around needing her to take care of him," they alleged. "She knew the day would come with their 25-year age gap, but now that it's here, it's daunting," the source claimed. Douglas became Zeta-Jones' problem after he announced his plans to retire at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival in the Czech Republic. However, he implied he might return someday. More About The Longtime Couple's Relationship Douglas fell first for Zeta-Jones after getting enthralled by her performance in "Mask of Zorro." He asked his publicist to set up a meeting in 1998 and tried to sweep the actress off her feet with the bold statement: "I'm going to be the father of your children." Unfortunately, his attempts to be smooth fell flat, and Zeta-Jones left utterly disappointed by his words. Despite failing to leave the best first impression, Douglas did not give up and had roses waiting for the entertainer when she arrived on a small island in Scotland to film "Entrapment." Their relationship kicked off, and Douglas wasted no time ensuring his bold declaration became a reality. He proposed to Zeta-Jones in December 1999 while they were on a New Year's Eve trip to Aspen, per PEOPLE. Shortly after their engagement, they announced they were expecting their first child and welcomed their son in August 2000. The Lovebirds Were Briefly Separated In 2013 Months after welcoming their son, Douglas and Zeta-Jones said their vows on November 18, 2000. They welcomed their daughter three years later in April 2003 and remained united for years throughout their public battles, including the actor's throat cancer diagnosis in 2010. The couple proudly celebrated Douglas becoming cancer-free in 2011, opening up about how their love and support for each other helped them overcome his health battle. Surprisingly, their tune changed in August 2013 when they announced their separation. At the time, a source claimed Douglas's cancer battle and Zeta-Jones's bipolar II disorder had strained their relationship. Fortunately, the split was brief, with Douglas announcing they were working things out in September 2013. The lovebirds reunited and made their first public appearance at the annual Monte Cristo Awards in April 2014. Catherine Zeta-Jones Raved About Her Marriage To Michael Douglas Eight years after their reunion, Zeta-Jones proved she and Douglas were still going strong during a 2022 appearance on "Late Night with Seth Meyers." She noted how fantastic it was to mark her 22nd wedding anniversary, per Independent, raving: "Can you imagine 22 years? And we have the same birthday. So 25 September is our same birthday. 25 years difference. Not the same day." Zeta-Jones echoed similar sentiments a month before the interview at the Los Angeles premiere of Tim Burton's "Wednesday" series. The Blast covered the story, reporting that she felt blessed to be married to Douglas. "I lucked out big time. He's a wonderful husband. He's a wonderful father," the actress declared. Can Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas overcome the alleged rough patch in their marriage?

Pamela Anderson Responds To Meghan Markle 'Rip-Off' Drama With 1 Perfect Line
Pamela Anderson has no time for catty comparisons to Meghan Markle. The 'Baywatch' star appeared on 'Watch What Happens Live' with Andy Cohen on Sunday, and was asked if she found the Duchess of Sussex's cooking show similar to her own. 'On a scale from one to 10, how much of a rip-off did you feel like 'With Love, Meghan' was of your show, 'Pamela's Cooking with Love?'' Cohen asked Anderson. 'There were articles saying that these two shows were very similar.' 'One ― I didn't [find them similar],' Anderson said while shaking her head no. 'One?' Cohen followed up. 'On a scale from one to 10, a one. You did not see any similarities?' 'I didn't really look,' the 'Naked Gun' actor explained before expertly shutting down any drama with one perfect line. 'I didn't invent cooking shows,' Anderson said with a laugh. 'So I mean ― she's just doing her thing.' Anderson's show was released in February 2025 on Amazon Prime, while Meghan's show premiered on Netflix in March after a two-month delay due to the wildfires in California. Meghan's show and lifestyle brand have previously drawn comparisons to Anderson's show, as well as Gwyneth Paltrow's and Martha Stewart's empires. While Paltrow and the duchess unveiled a surprise social media collaboration to shut down rumors of any beef between the two, Stewart was a little cagier in her most recent response to supposed similarities. 'Meghan I don't really know very well, and I hope she knows what she's talking about,' Stewart said of the duchess during an interview with Yahoo Lifestyle. 'Authenticity, to me, is everything, and to be authentic and knowledgeable about your subject matter is extremely important,' the lifestyle guru added. Related...
