Woman Wonders What Her Dogs Do Home Alone—Can't Cope With Petcam Footage
Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content.
Wondering what her pups were up to while she was out, a dog owner decided to check her pet-cam, but she was not prepared for what she found them doing.
The hilarious footage, shared on TikTok on Wednesday under the username @frantb3, shows the mischievous duo engaging in a fight over who gets to play with a piece of underwear they stole from their owner. "Me: [I wonder] what the girls are doing right now. The girls," reads layover text in the clip.
It is not uncommon for dogs to show interest in their owner's clothing items, socks, and shoes, including smelly used ones. But a Dogster article medically reviewed by Dr. Amanda Charles says that they have their reasons.
When your dog steals the stuff you wear, it is because it smells of you and they love your scent, so you should really be flattered rather than angry. It could also be that they are smelling something of interest, like food crumbs stuck in your socks.
However, the dog might also be acting out of boredom, using destructive behavior as a coping mechanism. Dr. Jess Kirk says in a Vet Explains Pets article that there could also be a medical condition behind it, known as pica, characterized by a compulsive urge to eat nonfood items.
Playing with your clothes is not only inconvenient to you, but it can also become dangerous for your pup if they accidentally ingest them, because it can lead to gastrointestinal obstructions.
To make sure your pup doesn't get hold of any of your items, avoid leaving clothing lying around in the house and keep wardrobes and drawers closed.

One user, Yuadi Santander, commented: "One time I saw my dogs wearing a boxer, and it belonged to the neighbor's son. I don't know how it ended up in my yard, and the dogs kept stretching and stretching, and the poor little boy kept yelling, 'Nooooo!"
GC Yazmin posted: "Mine were wearing my underwear on the street, between my three dogs. I was coming back from the store, so embarrassed because my husband was chasing them, wanting to take them off, because they were his favorites."
Vi wrote: "They are checking the elastic, don't worry. They will last a thousand more times."

Flamingo Gets Wet and Goes Wild During Hilarious Weather Report
Flamingo Gets Wet and Goes Wild During Hilarious Weather Report originally appeared on PetHelpful. I have discovered the best Weatherperson on the Internet. He's pink, wet, and clearly in a foul mood. He's got a lot to say and there's a 100% chance I'm here for it! This Birdcaster doesn't just tell you the weather, he *feels* it. This video opens on a flamingo as rains pours down on him. He's being asked to give us his opinion on the weather today and he launches into a monologue that can best be described as 50% curmudgeonly old man and 50% flamingo-impersonating-Al Roker-having-a-bad-day: Wow! He has a lot of opinions and his enraged monologue is full of squawks, head tilts, and more drama than you've ever seen in any weather report. My favorite is how he seems to politely wait for the interviewer to finish asking their question before he launches into his furious tirade. Viewers of this Tik Tok video were quick to empathize with his "I've had it!" attitude, but they also notice just how fed up he truly is. Stiquechick notes, "James is as unhappy about the weather as we are." Daniel Perrault declares Kevin "The flamingo of terror and attitude." And H3rm notices how Kevin "got right to the point." Kevin didn't get the memo. In general, flamingos enjoy rain as it provides all sorts of benefits! Their beaks allow them to feed on tiny organisms in the puddles, their webbed feet allow them to wade through the water easily, rain provides mud for nests and is a coveted building material, along with many other Kevin had plans. Maybe he wanted to strut in the sunshine or had a lunch date with a lady friend and didn't want to show up with his feathers plastered to his body. Whatever it is, he's a contender to be added to the Angry Birds game line up! As the video ends, viewers are left with one undeniable truth: sometimes the most accurate weather report comes from a feathered, damp, and very done flamingo who's obviously experiencing the weather on a very spiritual level.

These Fruity, Icy Raspados Have Kept Hollywood Cool for 17 Years
In Los Angeles's Mexican community, raspados vendors are not a monolith of shaved ice slingers who use generic syrups. Loyalty is earned by serving concentrated flavor combinations made with real fruit. All good raspados start with the jarabes (syrups) and a big block of ice. The raspado's construction — the speed with which the vendor pours chunky fruit syrup over cylinders of hand-shaved snow dressed with lechera, Tajín, or squirts of lime — all contributes to the final result. The longest line in town for these chilly cups forms at the corner of Santa Monica Boulevard and Western Avenue, where Daniel Velázquez of Raspados El Chilango has built a cult following for more than 17 years. Velázquez grew up in Tlalpan, a borough in Mexico City known for its lush, tranquil national parks that border the State of Mexico. Soft-spoken and focused, the compact, wiry raspados vendor spends hours vigorously shaving snowy ice from a step ladder that looms over the three-foot frozen block set alongside his white cart. On his head, a wide bandana captures beads of sweat. The fruits used in Raspados El Chilango's syrups are sourced from Downtown's Seventh Street Produce Market. Customers who eye the cart are often compelled by plastic grip jars filled with colorful syrups packed to capacity with nance, guanábana, pineapple, strawberry, and coconut, among others. Raspados are $5 for a small, $6 for a medium, and $7 for a large. Velázquez's Raspados El Chilango went viral on social media in late June due to an incident that occurred outside the strip mall located at 1075 North Western Avenue. In the video, which has racked up nearly 6 million views on the Raspados El Chilango TikTok account, a security guard working in the strip mall's parking lot allegedly make threats to call U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on Velázquez. As the contentious exchange made the social media rounds, Velázquez received support from social media followers and from regulars who queue at his cart, which is set up on the sidewalk just outside of the lot near the T-Mobile store. Raspados El Chilango in Hollywood. Bill Esparza 'I like coconut and strawberry, or coconut and walnut,' says Juan Vega, a local customer of 15 years. Raspados begin with swirls of lechera (condensed milk) inside a clear plastic cup before ice is packed in and generously covered in a syrup. A second flavor follows a hand-shaped bullet of ice heaped with overflowing fruit-laden syrup that's then crowned with chopped fruits. Finally, it's dressed through the hole at the center of the plastic dome lid with some Tajín, a squirt of lime, or a spot of El Cherito chamoy sauce if requested. A wide straw goes in to slurp up the slow-melting sludge of fruit, syrup, and ice. Spicy diablitos with a tamarind syrup and mangonadas made with mango, Tajín, and chamoy, promise contrasts of sour, spice, and salt; they're among the more beloved raspados here. Spring and summer afternoons bring out the longest lines for Velázquez, who had, until recently, been able to operate amid the sweeping ICE raids that began in late May 2025 due to a lesser presence of the enforcement agency in Hollywood. But on Tuesday, July 1, Velásquez announced on TikTok he had to temporarily shut down due to a sudden spate of ICE activity in the area — both undocumented and US citizens have been taken by the agency. 'Some women reached out to us here where we sell, and thanks to them, we were warned and we were able to escape. Stay Alert!' Velásquez wrote on his TikTok account. Raspados El Chilango has since returned to its corner, but Velásquez is taking the decision to open day by day, as are many other vendors in Los Angeles at the moment. 'I know my rights and don't cause anyone problems, so I'm not going anywhere,' Velásquez says. Raspados El Chilango is open 7 days a week from 1 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Santa Monica Boulevard and Western Avenue. Bill Esparza A raspado getting eaten fresh.
