Pup's Reaction After Dogs Stare Him Down From Car Goes Viral
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 clip capturing a dog's anxious reaction to a tense traffic encounter has amassed millions of views on social media, leaving users in stitches. The hilarious TikTok video shared on Saturday under the username @alexarlott14, shows the pup, Duke, sitting in the passenger seat of his owner's car, looking visibly intimidated as a group of pit bulls in a nearby vehicle stare him down. "Bro is not OK," reads layover text in the clip, as the pup is literally shaking, looking at his owner, as if asking to move faster. Each pup is different, and while some can be excellent guardians, others, like Duke, may be a little less suited for this position. One of the best breeds when it comes to protecting you or your property is the Belgian Malinois. The pups are highly capable and adaptable dogs that can be trained to do nearly anything and are fearless. German shepherds are another great choice, often used in law enforcement due to their intelligence and protective instincts. While being affectionate around adults and children, the breed will stand up to threats from strangers. Rottweilers and Doberman pinschers are also among the top guardian dogs, according to Georgia Veterinary Associates. Other good options include the bullmastiff, giant schnauzer, Rhodesian ridgeback, cane corso and Great Dane. While these are the best-suited breeds for this position, each of them requires proper training, socialization, and an experienced handler to fulfill their protective role effectively.

One user, Punk's Not Dead, commented: "Aww. The ears down. I have a big dog who's also a big chicken when it comes to being around small dogs or other big dogs I never test her courage or the other dogs strength. I love my dog." Oshana posted: "Nah that brown one really wants to fight him." Another user, Charlie Brown, wrote: "They was probably throwing gang signs out the window right before this too." Mfundo 'Nyambose' Mthethwa added: "Bro wants none of that business and the brown one is all about that business." Newsweek reached out to @alexarlott14 for comment via TikTok comments.

"Can't Breed Vipers...": Shashi Tharoor Slams Pakistan's US Outreach
Washington: Even as Pakistan's delegation, seeking to put its point across after India's action against terror during Op Sindoor, arrived in Washington on Wednesday, India's outreach delegation, led by Congress MP Shashi Tharoor decimated Pakistan's copycat outreach effort. "This (Pakistan) delegation is going around saying we are also victims of terrorism; we have lost more lives to terrorism than India has. We turn around and say- Whose fault is that? As Hillary Clinton famously said 10 years ago. You can't breed vipers in your backyard and expect them to bite only your why they (Pakistan) are now getting terrorists attacked by the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan, but who created the Taliban from which the Tehrik-i-Taliban broke off? We all know the answer to that, so let Pakistan look inside it and let it do some serious interior reflection before it goes around pleading innocence and deniability and everything else." Echoing the stand delegation member and BJP MP Tejasvi Surya hit out at the irony of Pakistan's delegation calling itself the delegation of peace. "Bhutto has been calling his delegation a peace delegation, and it is quite ironic that the Pakistani delegation is speaking the language of peace. It's like the Devil quoting from the scriptures. For a country that is trying to create fake heroes by promoting failed generals to field marshal, they don't know what true leaders look like. Pakistan has been surviving on cheap Chinese imports, including military hardware, which spectacularly failed on the battlefield. So perhaps it is hard for them to digest high-quality, high-calibre military hardware as well as strong democratic leadership on the other side of the border," Mr Surya said. Earlier, under pressure Biawal Bhutto made an impassioned call for peace at the UN Headquarters in New York and even called for joint intelligence sharing on terrorism. A theory completely rejected by the Indian side. "I think the US has understood for some time now that India has a very clear position that there will be no talks with a gun pointed at our head... The problem is that we will not deal with people who are pointing a gun at our heads. I mean frankly, if your neighbour unleashes his Rottweilers* to bite your children and in fact to do worse to your children, and then says, let's talk. You think he's going to talk to him until he either unleashes those Rottweilers* or locks them up in a kennel or puts them to sleep. It's as simple as that. You're not going to talk to people who are pointing guns at your temples. It's not going to happen," said Congress MP Shashi Tharoor. "India does not seek war. We have never sought war in our civilisation's history... But that doesn't mean that we will remain passive in the face of Adharma. If there is cessation of aggression, you will have peace, but if you attack us not once, but we are ready to do 100 Operation Sindoor," said BJP MP Tejasvi Surya. India already has the upper hand as the two delegations come face to face in the US. On Wednesday, House Foreign Affairs Chairman Brian Mast endorsed India's action against terror. "The world was holding its breath, watching what had taken place, both in disgust and also in anticipation of the response. When you are attacked, you have no choice but to respond. The world does not allow anything else, and those responses needed to take place. We have a great friendship and partnership between our nations, and we see nothing but growth and expansion in the future," he said. Pakistan is clearly on the back foot as India presents a strong case for itself. A sign of that came on Wednesday when Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif again urged US President Trump to facilitate talks with India. India's stance is clear: if there are to be talks, they will only be on terrorism emanating from Pakistan and Pakistan's illegal occupation of part of Jammu and Kashmir.

Shehbaz Sharif Seeks Trump's Facilitation As Tharoor-led Delegation Exposes Pakistan In US
Last Updated: Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif praised Trump for his role in helping de-escalate the situation with India and urged Washington to facilitate a dialogue between the two nations. Amid Indian delegations' global outreach against terrorism, Pakistan is making an all-out effort to seek the help of US President Donald Trump to try and achieve peace with India. Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif praised Trump for his role in helping de-escalate the situation with India and urged Washington to facilitate a comprehensive dialogue between the two nuclear neighbours. Addressing an event at the US Embassy in Islamabad, the Pakistan PM echoed former foreign minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, who stated that Trump 'deserves credit" for helping facilitate the cessation of hostilities between India and Pakistan. 'On 10 different occasions, he has taken credit for facilitating the ceasefire between India and Pakistan — and rightly so. He deserves that credit because it was his efforts that helped make the ceasefire possible. So, if the US is willing to help Pakistan in maintaining this ceasefire, it is reasonable to expect that an American role in arranging a comprehensive dialogue would also be beneficial for us," Bhutto said. Meanwhile, India publicly denied role of US President Trump in achieving the ceasefire agreement with Pakistan. New Delhi has consistently rejected third-party mediation on bilateral issues. 'I think the US has understood for some time now that India has a very clear position that there will be no talks with a gun pointed at our head… The problem is that we will not deal with people who are pointing a gun at our heads. I mean frankly, if your neighbour unleashes his Rottweilers* to bite your children and in fact to do worse to your children, and then says, let's talk," said Congress MP Shashi Tharoor, who is leading the all-party delegation to the United States. 'You think he's going to talk to him until he either unleashes those Rottweilers* or locks them up in a kennel or puts them to sleep. It's as simple as that. You're not going to talk to people who are pointing guns at your temples. It's not going to happen," he added. The Indian delegation also slammed the Pakistani side for claiming that it was as much a victim of terrorism as India was. Congress MP Shashi Tharoor said, 'This (Pakistan) delegation is going around saying we are also victims of terrorism, we have lost more lives to terrorism than India has. We turn around and say- Whose fault is that? As Hillary Clinton famously said 10 years ago. You can't breed vipers in your backyard and expect them to bite only your neighbours…That's why they (Pakistan) are now getting terrorists attacked by the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan, but who created the Taliban from which the Tehrik-i-Taliban broke off? We all know the answer to that, so let Pakistan look inside it and let it do some serious interior reflection before it goes around pleading innocence and deniability and everything else."

"Can't breed vipers and expect them to bite only your neighbour," Tharoor decimates Bilawal-led Pak outreach in US
Washington, DC [United States], June 5 (ANI): Even as Pakistan's delegation, seeking to put its point across after India's action against terror during Op Sindoor, arrived in Washington on Wednesday, India's outreach delegation, led by Congress MP Shashi Tharoor decimated Pakistan's copycat outreach effort.

Shehbaz Sharif seeks Donald Trump's mediation as India's delegation corners Pakistan in US
Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif called on US President Donald Trump to facilitate dialogue with India as New Delhi continues to ramp up its efforts to expose Islamabad's role in cross-border terrorism that necessitated Operation Sindoor. Addressing an event at the US embassy in Islamabad, Shehbaz Sharif praised Donald Trump for his role in helping de-escalate the situation with India, a claim New Delhi has publicly denied. He also urged Washington to facilitate a comprehensive dialogue between the two nuclear neighbours, news agency ANI reported. The Pakistan PM was repeating the plea made by former foreign minister Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari, who had claimed that Trump "deserves credit" for helping facilitate the cessation of hostilities between the two nations. "On 10 different occasions, he has taken credit for facilitating the ceasefire between India and Pakistan – and rightly so. He deserves that credit because it was his efforts that helped make the ceasefire possible. So, if the US is willing to help Pakistan in maintaining this ceasefire, it is reasonable to expect that an American role in arranging a comprehensive dialogue would also be beneficial for us," Bhutto had said. India has consistently rejected third-party mediation on bilateral issues with Pakistan, including the Kashmir issue. The Indian delegation, led by Congress MP Shashi Tharoor, on Operation Sindoor visiting the US – one of seven such teams sent by the GOI – has said that Washington has understood India's position that there can be no talks with a gun pointed at the head. "I think the US has understood for some time now that India has a very clear position that there will be no talks with a gun pointed at our head... The problem is that we will not deal with people who are pointing a gun at our heads. I mean frankly, if your neighbour unleashes his Rottweilers to bite your children and in fact to do worse to your children, and then says, let's talk. You think he's going to talk until he either unleashes those Rottweilers or locks them up in a kennel, or puts them to sleep. It's as simple as that. You're not going to talk to people who are pointing guns at your temples. It's not going to happen," said Shashi Tharoor, who is leading the all-party delegation to the United States. Tharoor also slammed the Pakistani side for making claims that it was as much a victim of terrorism as India was. "This (Pakistan) delegation is going around saying we are also victims of terrorism, we have lost more lives to terrorism than India has. We turn around and say- Whose fault is that?

We all know the answer to that, so let Pakistan look inside it and let it do some serious interior reflection before it goes around pleading innocence and deniability and everything else," the Congress MP added Echoing that sentiment, BJP MP Tejasvi Surya, who is also a member of the delegation, said that Pakistan speaking of peace was like the devil quoting the scriptures. "Bhutto has been calling his delegation a peace delegation, and it is quite ironic that the Pakistani delegation is speaking the language of peace. It's like the Devil quoting from the scriptures.
