Woman Baffled To Find Huge Hole in the Her Wall, Pet Cam Reveals Everything
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 owner came home to discover a hole in the wall, and she couldn't believe what the pet camera revealed had happened. The pet camera showed a view of TikTok user @redneckstephy's living room where her two dogs were playing. The large dogs jumped and barked all across the room. The Rottweiler, Malak, decided the best method for their play-fighting would be to get a running start. However, it didn't end as he expected. In the May 23 TikTok video, Malak went full speed ahead. Unable to stop himself, he slammed into the wall behind the front door. As he went back to the other dog, a giant hole revealed itself. The two dogs paused playtime. They knew they messed up. They both looked at the hole in the wall, wondering how they were going to explain what happened, just like children would've done if it happened to them. Malak then ran back to the hole, inspecting the newest wall addition. He returned to the other dog. They appeared to be strategizing their excuse. At the end of the clip, Malak sprinted out of the room. He wanted to appear innocent in case an owner returned home. Meanwhile, the other dog stayed frozen. Newsweek reached out to @redneckstephy via TikTok for additional information. The owner shared in a follow-up video that her husband was home when this incident occurred. He happened to step outside to take the trash out. It took him about half an hour or longer until he realized the hole. While she explained what happened, Malak looked at her with an innocent face. He needed to let her know it was an accident and he did not mean to cause destruction. TikTok Reacts The TikTok video amassed over 8.6 million views and 1.3 million likes as of Wednesday. People couldn't stop laughing at the dogs' reaction, especially knowing that they "ruined the mood immediately." "Not the other one staying back and looking just to make sure he can't be blamed. He really said, 'Ohhhh mom's gonna be so mad at you!!'" commented a viewer. A second person added: "When someone says "they're just dogs, they don't know any better" OH REALLY." Another pointed out: "Him running away and coming back to see if it's still there."

Ahmedabad: Pet Rottweiler that mauled infant to death dies of Babesiosis
Over two weeks after it allegedly mauled a four-month-old girl, resulting in her death, and injured her aunt in a residential society in Ahmedabad, a Rottweiler pet dog died of Babesiosis disease on Tuesday. The dog, Rocky, had attacked the infant in Radheya Residency society in Ahmedabad's Hathijan area on May 12. Following the attack, the dog was taken away by the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC). AMC's Cattle Nuisance Control Department (CNCD), in an official statement, said that Rocky was undergoing necessary treatment at a veterinary hospital in Bodakdev when, around 1.45 pm on Tuesday, it died. Following a test, Rocky tested positive for blood protozoan disease Babesiosis, which is fatal. Following the attack on the infant, the dog was rescued by the CNCD team and taken to AMC-run Dog Rescue Welfare Centre in Danilimda where its daily feeding, monitoring and medical treatment was being undertaken under Superintendent Divyesh P Solanki and veterinary doctors besides teams of CNCD, dog behaviour, training, treatment and care specialists. On May 19, the dog was taken to Paws Universe, a private multispecialty veterinary hospital, for treatment after reporting tick fever. The civic body said it would bear the cost of medical treatment, investigation, dog trainers and experts besides NGOs involved in looking after Rocky. After the infant's death, an FIR was registered against the dog owner at Vivekananda Nagar Police Station, Hathijan, on May 13. AMC authorities claimed that they had informed the dog owner, Dlilipbhai Patel, about its death and asked him to be present for the post-mortem as well as cremation. However, when Patel did not arrive, the post-mortem examination was performed as per the rules. Rocky was buried in a pit around 3 pm on Tuesday at Gyaspur carcass depot, as per the rules, in the presence of the teams concerned, AMC stated.

Video of Dog's Unique Sleeping Habit Goes Viral
How animals sleep can reveal a surprising amount about their health, mood, and personality. Dogs, in particular, show a wide range of sleep behaviors — from deep REM cycles to quick, light naps — and sometimes their sleep can look downright unusual. Recently, a viral video has drawn attention to a dog with an especially unique sleeping habit, leaving the internet wondering if this pup was just napping or auditioning for a horror movie. Emma the Rottweiler has gone viral for her eerie yet adorable way of dozing off. A video shared by her owners on Instagram kicks off with the popular meme-style text 'She a 10 but…' followed by two clips showing Emma fast asleep with her eyes open the whole time. In one scene, her eyes twitch and roll slightly, likely due to her being in REM sleep. In the other clip, viewers can spot her third eyelid, giving her a look that's both sweet and a little unsettling. The clip is short, funny, and oddly mesmerizing, which might explain why it's taken off the way it has. The unexpected sight has sparked laughter and curiosity online. One viewer admitted, 'That's actually so scary, I didn't know dogs could do that,' capturing the general surprise. Others took a more affectionate approach, with one user writing, 'There are no 'BUTs'. She's a 10. Period.' Many viewers also related to the experience, saying their dogs do the same thing. 'My Rottie does the same too!! Next level sleep paralysis,' commented another. Sleeping with their eyes partially or fully open is actually a normal behavior among dogs. This can occur for several reasons. During REM sleep, dogs often experience muscle movements. This could include twitching and eye activity that may cause their eyes to remain open. Additionally, certain breeds — particularly those with shallow eye sockets — are more prone to this behavior. The visible third eyelid, or nictitating membrane, functions as a protective mechanism to shield the eye by maintaining moisture. However, if this behavior appears suddenly or is accompanied by other unusual symptoms, it is advisable to consult a veterinarian to rule out any underlying health concerns.

Popular dog breeds with short lifespans - one doesn't usually make it to 10
When choosing a dog, many potential pet owners focus on personality, maintenance and aesthetics, however, one often-overlooked factor is lifespan Choosing a dog often involves considering factors like personality, upkeep and looks, but one crucial aspect that's frequently overlooked is the lifespan of the breed. While some breeds are known for living as long as 13, others sadly have much shorter life spans. A study published in Nature in 2024 analysed nearly 585,000 dogs across 155 breeds in the UK. The American Kennel Club then ranked the top 35 breeds with the shortest lifespan by popularity. The Express has lighted three popular breeds that typically don't live beyond 12 years. Dogs with short lifespans German Shepherd German Shepherds rank high on the popularity scale, coming in at number four out of 155. The American Kennel Club praises this breed for its "appreciated for their elegant appearance, hardworking nature, and impressive intelligence." "Developed in the late 1800s by a German cavalry officer determined to create the ideal herding dog, the breed has a long history of working with the military and police," it noted. "However, German Shepherds also serve as protective and loving family pets." Despite their robust stature, these dogs have a medium lifespan of just 11.3 years. The German Shepherd's shorter lifespan can be attributed to its size; larger dogs are more prone to cancer than smaller breeds, according to animal wellness experts at Vetericyn. The specialist has acknowledged that German Shepherds are prone to piling on the pounds and can suffer from joint and bone issues. To keep these dogs in top shape, a balanced diet and regular exercise are essential for extending their lifespan. 2. Rottweiler Securing the eighth spot in popularity, Rottweilers may be in demand but they only boast a median lifespan of 10.6 years. The American Kennel Club commented: "This large, muscular working breed would be a formidable enemy." Yet, it's not all about brawn; the Rottweiler's intimidating looks conceal a lovable, gentle nature, making them big softies with their families. Their tough exterior belies a playful streak that endears them to many. But it's this very appearance that might contribute to their shorter lives. Like German Shepherds, Rottweilers must watch their waistlines, with meal timing and portion control being key. These robust dogs are also at risk of Osteosarcoma, a severe and fast-spreading bone cancer, as noted by Petmd. 3. French bulldog Topping the charts in popularity yet with the briefest average lifespan is the French Bulldog, clocking in at just 9.8 years. The American Kennel Club describes the breed: "The French bulldog has steadily become one of the most popular dog breeds, especially among apartment dwellers who don't have a lot of space. "Frenchies are playful and smart, and their bat ears and smushed faces are downright irresistible for many." Yet, these adorable flat-faced pooches often face brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome, leading to breathing difficulties due to their constricted nostrils and slender windpipes. Halo Collar warns that if your French Bulldog is snoring, snorting, panting excessively or showing signs of fatigue, they might be having trouble breathing. The breed is also prone to Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVDD), which "causes the discs in a Frenchie's vertebrae to bulge into the spinal cord space. "IVDD is a serious health condition drastically affecting a French bulldog's life span. For example, the disease can cause knuckling of the paws, a reluctance to move, hunched posture and loss of bladder or bowel control."
