Video: Owner Shares ‘Favorite Moments' Since Adopting Senior Golden Retriever
That senior dog was Bruce. What followed was a life-changing decision. Nine months later, she's celebrating that choice with a heartfelt video of their favorite shared moments since the adoption.
Bruce has now spent nine full months in the care of his loving new owner. To mark the milestone, his mom shared a touching video on Instagram, showing nine of her favorite moments since the adoption of the senior Golden Retriever.
From small victories to life-changing breakthroughs, each clip in the video tells a part of Bruce's journey from being an uncertain shelter dog to becoming a beloved family member. The first moment shows the senior dog playing with his plush toy, an early sign that he was starting to feel safe enough to engage with his new surroundings.
The next clip documents a big health win when Bruce tested negative for heartworms. Another highlight was the first time the senior Golden Retriever rolled onto his back after adoption. This was a small act that signaled growing trust and comfort. His owner also celebrated the first time he managed to walk up and down stairs. While this task may seem ordinary, it marked major progress for the senior pup.
The video also includes sweet milestones like Bruce's first Christmas, the first time he ran freely, and discovering his love for pup cups. One of the most emotional moments featured is when the senior Golden Retriever finally overcame his fear of walking around the neighborhood. Finally, perhaps her most cherished memory was watching him fall in love with both his moms.
In the caption, his owner writes about the day she first saw his photo online. The pet parent couldn't stop thinking about him. She visited the Humane Fort Wayne shelter during her lunch break and walked out with him just hours later.
Since then, she says, Bruce has taught her about love, patience, bravery, and healing. She hopes that his memories of a tough past have been replaced with ones full of joy, safety, and family.

BBC sack 'several' after workplace culture review following Gregg Wallace report
BBC director general Tim Davie has said he and the corporation's leadership team will not 'tolerate behaviour that is not in line with our values' following the independent report into allegations of misconduct against MasterChef presenter Gregg Wallace. The 58-year-old was speaking as the BBC unveiled its annual report, the day after the report into Wallace found a total of 45 out of the 83 allegations of misconduct made during his time on the show were substantiated, including one allegation of 'unwelcome physical contact'. Speaking about the independent report commissioned by MasterChef producer Banijay UK, Davie said: 'From our side, it's simple, we're not going to tolerate behaviour that is not in line with our values. 'The industry needs to change, and we want to lead in the front, myself and the BBC leadership team will not tolerate people who are behaving inappropriately. 'There is no place in or on the BBC for those who are not prepared to live by our values, whoever they are. BBC chief Tim Davie 'This is a time of transition for the industry, a reset, and the changes we are driving are overdue.' On Monday, Wallace's MasterChef co-host John Torode confirmed he had a standalone allegation of racist language upheld in the same report. He said had 'no recollection of the incident' and was 'shocked and saddened' by the allegation in an Instagram post. In November 2024, the show's production company, Banijay UK, announced Wallace would step away from his role on the BBC cooking show while historical allegations of misconduct were investigated. The report concluded that the 'majority of the substantiated allegations against Mr Wallace related to inappropriate sexual language and humour', adding that 'a smaller number of allegations of other inappropriate language and being in a state of undress were also substantiated'. During the release of the annual report, BBC chair Samir Shah revealed for the first time that several members of staff had been dismissed as a result of an independent review of workplace culture commissioned by the BBC. He said: 'This is the first time we're going to say this publicly, several people have been dismissed as a result (of the review). 'But that, alongside the way the executive responded to the Banijay report into MasterChef yesterday, and I want audiences to feel confident that we are addressing these challenges. 'Finally, at the same time as acknowledging and dealing with the things they've gone wrong, the BBC has delivered an outstanding range of content to licence.' Davie later turned his attention to the Gaza: How To Survive A Warzone documentary, after a review found it had breached the corporation's editorial guidelines on accuracy. The programme was removed from BBC iPlayer in February after it emerged that the child narrator, Abdullah, is the son of Ayman Alyazouri, who has worked as Hamas's deputy minister of agriculture. Read More Gregg Wallace: A familiar face on TV Gregg Wallace: Timeline of allegations as report findings published Davie added: 'There was a breach of our editorial guidelines, there was no breach on impartiality and no evidence of any outside interest impact on the programme. 'But there was a breach of accuracy, and that is not acceptable, so we are taking action to ensure proper accountability and we're taking immediate steps to stop a failing like this being repeated. 'Despite this mistake, I do want to credit thousands of people across the BBC for delivering such brave impartial journalism despite immense challenges and very significant personal pressure. 'Personally, I remain utterly committed to delivering impartial coverage without fear or favour. It is needed now more than ever in this polarising world.' On Monday, Ofcom announced it would investigate the documentary under its broadcasting code, which states factual programmes 'must not materially mislead the audience'.

James Gunn Reportedly Cut a NSFW Joke From SUPERMAN — GeekTyrant
James Gunn has never been shy about injecting irreverent humor into his movies. Guardians of the Galaxy and The Suicide Squad are proof of that. But, when it comes to Superman , the tone is a little different. The Man of Steel isn't a rebel or an antihero; he's DC's symbol of hope. So while Gunn still brings his trademark wit style, and direction, it's not shocking to hear a NSFW joke got the axe before the film's release. The cut gag didn't come from Superman himself, but from one of his new allies. According to X user @ViewerAnon, the joke appeared during a major action sequence where Superman (David Corenswet) battles a kaiju-sized monster unleashed by Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hoult). The fight is a big spectacle and it's also where the Justice Gang joins in on the fun: Guy Gardner's Green Lantern (Nathan Fillion), Hawkgirl (Isabella Merced), and Mister Terrific (Edi Gathegi). The heroes team up to bring the beast down, though Superman insists on avoiding killing the creature. In the aftermath, things get lighthearted, at least in the original cut, when Guy lobbed this NSFW line at Supes:
