Dogs are smart when they want their owner's attention. To provide an apt example, this Instagram video shows how a Doberman named Arlo seeks his grandma's attention when he needs scratches. He even trains the lady in five steps to give proper scratches. In the caption, the uploader quipped, 'Enjoy your newly trained Grandma—results may vary.'
Instagram video shows how Doberman teaches grandma the right way to scratch him
In a hilarious video on Instagram, a Doberman named Arlo teaches his grandma the right way to scratch him. The clip begins with the pet and dog grandmother sitting on a couch while the owner seems to be recording the moment. As per the first step on 'How to Train Your Grandma,' Arlo stares into 'her soul.'
When that doesn't work, he proceeds to the next step, 'Slap the air like you just don't care.' He moves his left front paw up and down heavily, which gives him loving scratches from grandma. Arlo doesn't want her to stop, so he implements the third step, making it 'personal' with a 'side eye.' He makes a similar gesture with his paw and gives a side eye to his grandma to earn more scratches.
Arlo looks proud as an on-video line reads, 'That's the ticket!' Further, the grandmom stops petting her for a while as she concentrates on her device. This makes the dog jump to the fourth step— 'The 'Slap and Judge' —make your face say it all.' After succeeding in enjoying grandma's attention, he moves to the final step. Now, he waves his paws and ignores the old lady, who again obliges to give proper scratches to the pet. At the end, the video mentions that the training has been completed.
Meanwhile, viewers have gone gaga over Arlo's antics in the clip. A user wrote, 'She loves her grandfurbboy and Arlo knows it lol,' while another stated, 'He is so gorgeous. Love how they connect with their hooman.' Many called the dog 'cute,' 'smart,' and 'funny.' Since the upload, the Doberman train scratches video has received over 15K likes.

1 person dead and multiple injured in fireworks explosion at Mohamed Ramadan concert in Egypt

One person is dead and multiple others are injured after a fireworks display malfunction at a Mohamed Ramadan concert Thursday night in a resort town on the north coast of Egypt. One of the fireworks canisters exploded the moment Ramadan came out on stage at the Porto Marina Theater, killing a member of the show's technical team responsible for operating the fireworks, according to Egypt's semi-official newspaper Al Ahram. The incident also injured at least six people, per the outlet's English counterpart. Ramadan, an Egyptian actor and musician, posted a video statement to his Instagram about the incident, extending his condolences to a victim he called "Hossam." Al Ahram identified the victim as Hossam Abdel Moneim, a 24-year-old graduate from Ain Shams University who worked in party planning and special effects for over a decade. "I extend my condolences to the family of Hossam, may God have mercy on him and grant him a place in his spacious paradise," Ramadan said in the video. "And grant patience to his loved ones, and his friends, and heal those who were injured." Ramadan said that he stopped the concert immediately after he saw what had happened. "I handled it like any human would, I went down to the audience and I helped get the injured to the ambulance," he said. "And I stopped the concert, and helped guide people so that their departure doesn't cause any crowd surge or additional accidents." Ramadan did not identify the victim beyond a first name, but alluded in his statement that the victim was working during the concert. Videos depicting the incident began circulating on social media shortly afterwards. One video shows Ramadan performing as an explosion go off near the stage. Seconds later, Ramadan can be heard saying "Stop, stop, stop!" before the music comes to a halt. Another video shows people in the audience carrying the body of a man who appears to be injured or deceased. Ramadan, who can be seen on the stage, is heard speaking into the mic, instructing them to bring the body on stage. The incident is being investigated by Egypt's Public Prosecution Office, according to Al Ahram. Ramadan has been gaining international recognition in recent years, releasing songs with French Montana, Future and Gims. His song, "Rayheen Neshar - Bum Bum" began going viral on TikTok in 2020. The artist posted to his Instagram that he will be performing again on Friday at another venue on Egypt's north coast.

Meghan Markle's Former BFF Going Through Major Life Change: Report

Meghan Markle's Former BFF Going Through Major Life Change: Report originally appeared on Parade. Jessica Mulroney has reportedly split from her husband of 16 years, Ben Mulroney. On July 29, Page Sixreported the news and said that Jessica, 45, has taken off her wedding ring. "They're split. Jessica seemed sad, but also relieved to have some clarity," a Canadian source told the outlet, while another source said the pair separated "some time ago." A source also confirmed the reported breakup to Us Weekly. In Instagram selfies posted on June 28 and July 24, the Canadian fashion stylist did not appear to be wearing her wedding band. However, Jessica did share a birthday tribute for Ben, 49, on March 12, writing, "Happy belated Birthday Benny! Hope all your wishes come true as well as Bruce Wayne's dream to try my cheesecake. Xx." The former best friend of Meghan Markle also celebrated the pair's wedding anniversary via Instagram with a series of sweet photos on November 17, 2024, admitting that they had forgotten about the special day. "Ok so our wedding anniversary was a slight oversight this year ( ie… we forgot). But the love all year round makes up for it," she wrote. "Which reminds me, how many years has it been @benmulroney? I feel lucky everyday so what's a number?" Jessica and Ben—who works as a radio host and is the eldest son of late former Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney—tied the knot in 2008 after having met as teenagers. In a heartfelt 2018 Instagram post, the marketing consultant detailed the pair's love story. "We met when I was 14 years old. He was of course MUCH older. Ben's family moved back from Ottawa to MONTREAL four blocks away from my family's home. We met. We hung out. We kept in touch through so many moves and failed relationships," she wrote. "12 years later, we went on our first date. (thanks to my sister Liz for pushing me to go). It was the best date of my life. 9 months later we were engaged. 9 months after that married. "It was a beautiful wedding (if you were there, highly likely you don't remember it) I was lucky enough to inherit the most wonderful in laws (brothers and sisters included) imaginable. "We had twin boys. Then a little girl. We've worked hard. We've laughed harder. And we will continue to make the most wonderful memories. "I felt like the luckiest girl ten years ago. I feel even luckier now. Ben, you are and will always be, my everything. Hopefully we will get to see the whole world together. Until then Australia." The pair welcomed their twin sons, Brian and John, in August 2010. Their daughter Isabel was born in June 2013. Jessica and Markle, 43, were once close friends, but haven't been spotted together in quite some time. Their reported rift allegedly began in June 2020, when Canadian lifestyle influencer Sasha Exeter publicly accused Jessica of showing "textbook white privilege" and "very problematic behavior and antics," People reported. In September 2020, Jessica took to her Instagram Stories to seemingly deny a falling out with Markle. "I'm going to tell this once and for all. Meghan and I are family. She is the kindest friend and has checked up on me everyday. Tabloid culture is atrocious. It creates lies and hurtful storyline[s]. Stop feeding into it. Done," she said, according to People. However, the former best friends "haven't been seen publicly together in years," per the outlet.
