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. A goldendoodle dressed as a Beanie Baby for Halloween has delighted viewers on TikTok—reviving millennial nostalgia for many, while proving that, when it comes to canine Halloween costumes, less is often more. Shared to TikTok by @kaleighleip on July 10, the now-viral video features the curly-haired dog sitting solemnly with a plush red "TY" tag hanging from his neck. The clip is overlaid with the caption: "Not a fan of his Halloween costume." Viewers, however, were quick to disagree. Since it was posted, the video has been liked more than 1.2 million times and viewed over 7.2 million times. The sight of the dog channeling a lifelike version of the iconic '90s plush toy has left viewers in stitches, with many poking fun at the canine's unamused expression in the costume. Comments have poured in from viewers who were clearly caught off guard by the combination of accuracy and hilarity. Several have highlighted the dog's expressive stare toward the figure behind the camera, joking that it hints at the canine feeling disgruntled by the choice of outfit. "I thought the dog was the Halloween costume and there was a human in there," one viewer said. "Halloween for the win," another added. "He's just a big baby," a third viewer posted. "He looks like rootbeer the beanie boo," one comment read, while another shared that the dog reminds them of another toy from the range called Noodles. "OMG [oh my God], it's perfect," one viewer commented. "He's embarrassed," another posted. "OMG adorable, I love how you're not loading him down with a full body costume," a third viewer commented. "That's adorable," one user shared. "Side eye," another added. "Doodles are so sassy," a third wrote in agreement. "Honestly the best costume ever," one viewer summed up, while another commented that they had dressed their own goldendoodle similarly last Halloween. Goldendoodles—crosses between golden retrievers and poodles—are beloved for their intelligence, affectionate nature, and highly expressive personalities. Known for their ability to mirror human emotions with startling accuracy, these dogs appear to communicate through soulful eyes, animated gestures, and hilariously deadpan expressions. Their natural charisma and emotional range make them ideal family pets. Newsweek reached out to @kaleighleip for more information via TikTok.

Goldendoodle Dropped at Groomer With Matted Ears—No One Prepared for Result
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. A North Carolina groomer's routine haircut for a goldendoodle has unexpectedly delighted viewers online, turning his simple trim into a viral moment, thanks to the stark contrast in how the canine looked before and after the visit. The TikTok video, shared by Sarah White under @charlottedoggrooming on June 6, shows a dog named Jett at his grooming appointment. Initially shaggy in a way that is typical for his breed, Jett emerges nearly unrecognizable after having his ears shaved due to matting. "What a doodle with shaved ears looks like," an overlaid text on the video read. More than 259,000 people have watched the video to date, with several viewers voicing their amusement at the dramatic transformation in the comments. White, 28, told Newsweek that Jett's owners trusted her judgment on the grooming approach. Shaving his ears was necessary for his comfort and hygiene—but the result took everyone by surprise, including White. "It unexpectedly sparked a really adorable and wholesome response," White said. "So many doodle owners started sharing photos of their own dogs with shaved ears. "It turned into a lighthearted, feel-good thread of proud pet parents showing off their pups!" From left: Jett the goldendoodle stands on a table at his grooming salon in Charlotte, North Carolina. From left: Jett the goldendoodle stands on a table at his grooming salon in Charlotte, North Carolina. @charlottedoggrooming Goldendoodles, a popular hybrid of golden retrievers and poodles, are known for their thick, curly coats, which can easily become matted if not maintained with regular grooming. While shaved ears may not be the standard look for the breed, Jett's new appearance seemed to charm viewers on TikTok rather than shock them. "My [favorite] but my clients never want to," one viewer posted. "I love short ears on dogs, that makes them look so much younger," another added. "Love a short ear, very silky," a third viewer shared. "We call these Dorito ears, and I love them," one viewer said. "I'm actually not mad at this," another commented. White, who has been a pet groomer for six years, runs a mobile nail-trimming business with her husband called N.E.A.T Mobile and also offers full grooming services at home. "It has been really heartwarming to see the community engage so positively," White said. "Getting that many likes was not planned, but I am so glad it happened with something that brought smiles and good energy. "As a groomer, I love when a simple transformation can spark joy, and in this case, it definitely did!" White added that the reaction from Jett's owners was just as rewarding as the public response. "The owners were ecstatic when they came to pick him up afterwards," she said. Do you have funny and adorable videos or pictures of your pet you want to share?

Goldendoodle Has 'Summer Haircut'—Internet Not Prepared for Result
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. A dog's grooming transformation has wowed the internet. A dog mom called Jeannely (@jeannely_24) shared her goldendoodle's summer cut, which garnered 231,200 views and 13,400 likes on TikTok. "When it's time to get your annual summer haircut," she wrote as the text overlay on a clip of her shaggy poodle. "Goose is that you?" she captioned the video. The video shows Goose before his trim, sporting a long, curly, fluffy coat. Then it cuts to the after shot, revealing a dapper pup with a smooth, straight, and silky-soft finish. Goldendoodles, a cross between golden retrievers and poodles, are known for their friendly temperament, intelligence, and hypoallergenic coats. They're a popular choice for families and allergy sufferers alike, thanks to their minimal shedding and affectionate nature, according to PetMD. However, their coats require consistent care. As PetMD notes, goldendoodles need frequent brushing and regular grooming to prevent mats and tangles from forming. Without proper maintenance, their thick, curly fur can become uncomfortable and even painful for the dog. The Doodle Trust also stresses the importance of grooming, recommending doodles be brushed thoroughly at least three times a week and professionally groomed every 6–8 weeks. They warn that failing to keep on top of coat care can lead to matting that may only be resolved by shaving the coat short. A stock image showing a Maltipoo puppy on a dog groomer's table.

SeventyFour/iStock / Getty Images Plus TikTokers were quick to weigh in on Goose's glow-up—some with admiration, others confused by the phrase "annual summer haircut." "All doodles should be groomed every 6-7 weeks. If you can't afford the grooming then don't buy doodles," said one user. "ANNUAL SUMMER = because last time I checked summer is once a year.. I don't understand why so many people can't comprehend that statement. Clearly you can see from the doodle he gets multiple haircuts yearly," explained another user. The original poster replied: "Thank you! Lol I need to pin this comment!" Other commenters were more focused on Goose's transformation itself. "He's like my dog, twins," said JC. "The groomer did amazing on the face," said another user. "My doodle has this same coat. We brush him with a metal wire brush and he still looks like a matted ball," said Alejandra. "Awww new man," said Bruno. "Nice and cool cut for the summer!" said another user. Newsweek reached out to @jeannely_24 for comment via TikTok. We could not verify the details of the case.
