Special Needs Puppies With Uncontrollable Shaking Get Second Chance
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 litter of tiny puppies who can't stop shaking have found the perfect home with a rescue center focused on special needs dogs. Shannon Tarr runs the Emotional Rescue in Hastings, Minnesota, which she set up in 2017 to help care for dogs with special needs. In June, she got a very special litter of Chow mix puppies—and after sharing a video of them to her TikTok account, @emotionalrescuedogs, both the pups and her work have gone viral. "They have shaking puppy syndrome," Tarr explained to Newsweek, but added the good news that they "will likely outgrow" the condition. Shaking puppy syndrome, also known as hypomyelination, affects a dog's nervous system, causing nerves and muscles to malfunction. Symptoms can begin as early as two weeks after birth, and tremors can become more violent while eating, but ease while resting, according to a vet-reviewed report from PetMD. While there is no treatment for the syndrome, most puppies recover by around a year old, though may still experience mild hind limb tremors. Tarr told Newsweek: "Their mother was with a breeder, and she had the same condition. When the breeder died, they went to another rescue that transferred them to us." "We treat them like regular puppies—with lots of playtime and socializing!" The litter of puppies with Shaking Puppy Syndrome. The litter of puppies with Shaking Puppy Syndrome. TikTok @emotionalrescuedogs In a video shared to her page on June 8, Tarr showed the gorgeous fluffy puppies running around outside together for their morning feed And while all five puppies appear content, they are shaking non-stop, with one almost lifting its hind legs off the ground as it tries to eat breakfast. They meet some of the other dogs at the shelter, watch the horses grazing out back, and use their voices to bark at everything interesting, while moving and shaking the entire time. The video went viral, with more than 730,000 likes and 9.2 million views, as animal lovers' hearts broke for the litter, one calling it "so, so sad" and another sharing sympathy for the "poor babies." "How do their muscles maintain that movement, that must be exhausting for them," another wrote, as many commenters asked about the condition. One commenter, who identified themselves as a veterinary technician, assured viewers that pups with shaking puppy syndrome "can live a very long, happy, and goofy twerkful life. They will be just fine." The litter meeting the other animals at the rescue. The litter meeting the other animals at the rescue. TikTok @emotionalrescuedogs In Tarr's most recent videos of the puppies, shared on July 20, the litter can be seen playing together in the yard, and their tremors appear to have calmed slightly. Undeterred by their shaking, each of the pups is running, jumping ,and chasing each other while fighting for a chew toy. One puppy is missing from the litter, however, as he was adopted into a loving forever home just days earlier. And now, the rest of the litter are ready to go to new homes, too. In the later videos of the puppies, many comments have changed from shocked and saddened to enjoying the puppies for who they are, with one recent commenter writing: "They always make me smile and laugh. So darn cute, shaky and all." And as another put it: "I love watching all of them. So adorable, and you all get better and stronger every day."

Promising review: "We always use this after a day in the sun at the beach. It's a staple in our vacation home. Helps with moisture and is not sticky or greasy feeling and smells refreshing." —Ts17Price: $7.97 A pack of two cherry-flavored lip masks from Vitamasques if you want something that hydrates and plumps your pout. These are perfect for when you're in a hurry getting ready for a first date and want to add a little VA VA VOOM to your kissers. Promising review: "These are perfect for super dry lips. It's like nothing helps, but these are lifesavers. Also, the brand Vitamasque has amazing products that don't irritate or burn when using them. My go-to for face, feet, lip masks, etc." —TiffanyPrice: $5.94 for a two-pack A face wash from Cocokind which transforms from an oil into a milky froth upon contact with water. This baby works to remove all traces of makeup, skincare, and oil without compromising the skin barrier — no harsh scrubbing with makeup wipes needed. Promising review: "This was recommended to my daughter by her dermatologist because it is less drying than micellar water. It removes her makeup well and her skin is looking much better." —NayPrice: $17.98 A body wash from Nativr reviewers love for its ability to clean the skin while also leaving it soft and supple and ready to be shown off in this shorts weather we are in. Promising review: "The skin I'm in has been a nightmare. I have tried everything I can, trying and wasting tons of money to try and help fight the nightmare I have faced with the skin I'm in. Native body wash lets my skin feel soft and wonderful, when for so long my face felt dry and rubbery, uncomfortable, and painful. When I found Native, it changed my skin and the way I feel. Being a woman and feeling awful because your skin is super sensitive to ingredients makes it so that you want to hide. Native gave me freedom to be a woman, feeling soft and subtle on my face and body. When the skin I'm in feels good, I feel encouraged to get dressed, put on makeup, and face the day fresh-faced, knowing Native has me covered head to toe in luxurious comfort with smells that make you feel and look pretty. Native has your skin feeling its best and smelling wonderful too, and all of this with fewer ingredients than many to most other brands, and good ingredients, and none of the harsh parabens or sulphates that can be damaging to you and the environment. Native is worth the money, and your skin will thank you for it!" —CrystalPrice: $2.97 A lip scrub from Tree Hut that is said to banish dead skin cells in seconds. Apply the product on the areas of the lip where needed, then rub it off with the pad of your finger or a wet cloth. This small but mighty tube will come in handy during scorching summers when you're spending nearly every minute of the day under the AC. Promising review: "Really good! You do have to scrub kinda hard to get dead skin off." —SophiaPrice: $6.97 A tinted sunscreen from Eucerin with SPF 50 — *drops mic.* Oh, you wanted more? Okay, well, this magical product promises to play well under your makeup, leave zero whitecast (thanks, tinted-sunscreen science), and, on days when you want to skip a full face, it can even serve as all you wear to brunch with friends. Promising review: "I love how moisturized my face is after applying. I love the glowy look it gives my skin!" —BrookePrice: $15.88 A calming face wash from Burt's Bees vows to provide a gentle cleanse to the most sensitive of skin types. This cream-based cleanser calls on soothing agent aloe vera to prevent irritation. And if you're looking for more proof that this product is sensitive skin-safe, it's also been awarded the National Eczema Association Seal of Acceptance, which is, uh, a pretty big deal in the world of skincare. Promising review: "I like how gentle this face cleanser is on my skin. It feels soft and leaves my skin feeling moisturized." —jnislyPrice: $8.76 A customizable tanning serum from Jergens so you can add a bronzed tint to your skin — no sun exposure required. All you need to do is mix five to 15 drops into your daily moisturizer, and voila, you have a tan! Five drops will give you a light, beaming glow, while 15 will leave you looking full-on bronzed. Your bronzer can take a backseat — for erm, like, forever — now that you have this in your back pocket. Promising review: "I love the idea of this! Other tanning products make me orange, but this does not. It is very customizable as you add however many drops you want. It's affordable, smells nice, and has a pleasant texture. I have used this on my face a few times and it has not broke me out either. Give this a try if you are looking at it!!" —CaseyPrice: $13.47 A face oil from Derma-E reviewers say is a game changer when it comes to tackling fine lines. Retinol, vitamin E, and sea buckthorn oils work in tandem to minimize the appearance of fine lines and promote skin cell turnover, respectively. Promising review: "This is a great oil that absorbs beautifully. I love it. It smells nice too. Very faint but lovely. I have recently begun using oils instead of lotions as moisturizer and let me tell you, its a game changer. Its a whole different game actually." —JenniferPrice: $15 (originally $18.99) An over-the-counter acne gel treatment from Differin that may have you seeing an improvement in your skin as early as one week — now THAT'S magical. This potent acne treatment uses adapalene — aka a prescription-strength retinoid — that focuses on counteracting clogged pores and inflammation. Promising review: "I have had acne since I was roughly 16 years old. I have tried everything under the sun, and some things worked better than others while some just stunk and stung. So you have to imagine my reaction when Differin was put on the market. Seemed expensive for so little and it probably didn't work. Well I was wrong. It's one of the best treatments I've used. You have to stay the course and use it consistently. I recommend it for mild to moderate acne. I don't know how effective it would be against more severe cases. I do believe that with consistent use it is very good at alleviating milder conditions." —BarbaraPrice: $23.97 (originally $25.98) A face wash from CeraVe for dry skin types because it not only cleans your pores but also — you guessed it! — quenches your skin's thirst for hydration. It claims to keep skin moisturized for up to 24 hours thanks to hydrating hyaluronic acid and skin barrier-supporting ceramides. Promising review: "I have used CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser for many years. I love that it thoroughly cleans my face but doesn't leave it feeling tight and dry. If I happen to run out and have to use a different cleanser or soap, I can see and feel the difference on my skin. It is definitely a product I count on and won't do without." —KimPrice: $13.68+ (available in two sizes) A pack of 14 nose and face pore strips from Bioré which are said to get out all the awful gunk lodged in your pores within 10 minutes. Not only will your pores be relieved of all that dirty buildup, but you'll also get the satisfaction of seeing it up close... if you're into that. ;) Promising review: "Been using these for years. I tried cheaper brands but they never seem to work as well. I've tried masks and potions and if it's cheap I've probably tried it but these are finally affordable at Walmart and a guilty splurge for me in the hot summers when my pores look bigger and blackheads abound with all the extra sunscreen I wear." —ePrice: $9.94 A thick, rich moisturizer from Pond's that supposedly satisfies the complexions of those with the driest of skin types. In fact, it has been a favorite for generations, way before the dawn of TikTok. The rich cream maintains that it doesn't clog pores, either — a win-win in our book. Promising review: "Years ago I decided to commit to a moisturizer (I have dry skin) that I could maintain in every financial and weather season. This is it. People say my skin looks great. I use Ponds cleanser and moisturizer every day." —AnonymousPrice: $8.98 Need ingredients for all your new recipes?
