Dog Teaches Baby to Play Fetch at an Early Age in Adorable Video
German Shepherd secretly throws a toy while the baby sleeps
There's no better upbringing for your child than the one that involves tiny paws, constant tail wags, never-ending giggles, and a furry partner in crime. The funny part about being a parent and a pet owner is that you won't realize when your little one and your pup will become the ultimate mischief duo. But rest assured, the floof will remain a gentle guardian for your kid's wildest adventures.
In one such instance, this mom documented the moment her dog decided to teach her baby sister how to play fetch in an adorable video. The subtext first shared the German Shepherd's viewpoint: 'Your parents brought home a new baby, but you still need all the attention.' Meanwhile, the clip showed the canine, named Sage, sneaking into the mother-daughter duo's snuggle time and secretly throwing a toy while the little one slept.
The video hilariously captured the dog's not-so-stealthy attempt at giving the baby her squeaky toy. Without showing herself in the shot, Sage dropped the tiny toy for her little sister, but not without making a loud squeak. Commenters further elevated the post's humor with funny remarks. 'She's trying to train the baby to throw early,' wrote one user, while another quoted Sage, 'At your age I was already walking and eating socks, bub.'

'Fantastic Four' stretches lead to 2nd week at N.America box office
"The Fantastic Four: First Steps," Disney's debut of the rebooted Marvel Comics franchise, continued to outperform the competition for a second straight weekend at the North American box office, industry estimates showed Sunday. Actor-of-the-moment Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Emmy-winner Ebon Moss-Bachrach and Joseph Quinn star as the titular team of superheroes, who must save a retro-futuristic world from the evil Galactus. The film pulled in an estimated $40 million in the Friday-through-Sunday period, a 66 percent drop from the prior weekend, for a two-week global total of $368 million. Universal's family-friendly animation sequel "The Bad Guys 2," about a squad of goofy animal criminals actually doing good in their rebranded lives, debuted in second spot, earning $22.2 million. "This is a good opening for an animation follow-up sequel," said David A. Gross of Franchise Entertainment Research. The film edged out Paramount's reboot of "Naked Gun," a slapstick comedy starring Liam Neeson as Frank Drebin Jr, son of the bumbling police lieutenant from the original 1980s movie and related television series "Police Squad!" It pulled in $17 million in its opening weekend. "Superman," the latest big-budget action film featuring the iconic superhero from Warner Bros. and DC Studios, slipped from second to fourth at $13.9 million, Exhibitor Relations said. That puts the global take of the film, starring David Corenswet as the Man of Steel, at $551 million. "Jurassic World: Rebirth" -- the latest installment in the blockbuster dinosaur saga -- finished in fifth place with $8.7 million. Its worldwide total stands at $765 million after five weeks in theaters. Independent horror film "Together," which premiered at this year's Sundance Film Festival and was picked up by Neon, claimed sixth spot in its debut weekend with $6.8 million. "This is a very good opening for an indie horror pic," Gross said. Rounding out the top 10 were: "F1: The Movie" ($4.1 million) "I Know What You Did Last Summer" ($2.7 million) "Smurfs" ($1.8 million) "How to Train Your Dragon ($1.4 million) bur-mlm/des

Is Celebrity SAS really the hardest show on TV?
Georgia Harrison says it's the hardest thing she's ever done, but Pete Wicks thinks Strictly is tougher - just how gruelling is the Channel 4 show? Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins gets off to a bumpy start for some of the 2025 series recruits, with two dropping out in the very first episode. The Channel 4 show is touted as one of the most gruelling challenges on how tough is it really? The series sees celebrities take on a simulation of the notoriously brutal SAS selection process training, including physical feats and interrogation about their toughest life moments. Some former contestants have called it the most difficult thing they've ever done, whilst others have claimed to have found Strictly Come Dancing much more taxing. From trench foot and broken bones to medical withdrawals and mental pressure, there's no doubt that celebrity recruits should prepare themselves for the worst. But some have said the experience wasn't nearly as bad as expected - here's what the show's former stars have had to say about Celebrity SAS. 'It's just so, so tough' It will come as no surprise to anyone who's watched Celebrity SAS that plenty of contestants have called the show one of the toughest things they've ever done, citing injuries, painful physical challenges and emotional difficulties as the worst parts. Georgia Harrison The former Love Islander was one of just two celebs to pass the 2024 series, but told The Sun she had underestimated how tough it would be: "I really did think the interrogation was going to be easy, because I would watch it on TV and think, 'If that was me, I wouldn't be shaking on the floor', but I really underestimated just so, so tough." "It's awful, excruciatingly hard, degrading, demoralising and one of the hardest things I've ever done in my life," she added, claiming that she had "almost drowned" in one challenge. Rachel Johnson Harrison's castmates in the 2024 series also suffered a number of physical injuries and medical problems - Marnie Simpson withdrew after a wound from a recent surgery became infected from frequently getting soaked and not having the chance to dry out. Meanwhile, Rachel Johnson shared: "I broke a rib. It was a lose-lose situation cos you're in terrible pain and you go to the doctor and you say, 'I can't walk or I definitely can't run. And I definitely can't carry my pack.' And the doctor says, 'Well, you know, there's nothing I can do about a broken rib. I'm not an X-ray machine. Do you want to leave?' So you just have to power on through." Gareth Gates Former Pop Idol contestant Gareth Gates was the only 2023 celebrity to pass the course, but confessed the stress of the experience had a huge effect on his stutter, telling Lorraine his speech had become "possibly the worst it has ever been". He said of the final: "It was definitely the worst experience of my life. I haven't ever felt pain like it. When you are held in those stress positions for hours, it's really is unbearable. It was really horrendous." Matt Hancock Former health secretary Matt Hancock was a controversial finalist in 2023, but left the show with an unwelcome souvenir - trench foot. His fellow finalists had the same problem, with Danielle Lloyd admitting she was still having treatment for it months later. Talking about the show, Hancock said: "Being on SAS was like nothing else I've ever experienced. It's one of the toughest physical and mental things I've ever done. It really opens your eyes and makes you look into yourself. "After coming through the most challenging period as Health Secretary during the pandemic, I wanted to push my limits. It's safe to say the course tested my resilience!" John Barrowman The 2025 series might have seen some early drop-outs, but in 2024 John Barrowman set the record for quitting before even spending one night in camp. Viewers saw him vomiting after one challenge, but Barrowman later told Lorraine that there were other issues at play: "As I kept going through that first day and they were saying things like 'you don't know who you are, you've got to discover who you are, you've got to find out who the real person is'. All the stuff they say to build you back up. I kept saying to myself, 'I know who I am, I know who John Barrowman is. I've made a mistake here,' and that was in the bit where we were having the walk through. "Then when that lightbulb went off, then I started getting sick. I realised I'm in a situation here, I know who John Barrowman is, I'm starting to get sick, I need to make a conscious decision if I'm going to continue here. Then that was it, I just said I'm out, because I didn't think I could do it if I was sick." 'Strictly Come Dancing is far harder' Not everybody found Celebrity SAS the worst experience of their lives - whether through bravado, blanking out the worst bits, or really being as tough as an SAS officer, these former contestants didn't seem to see the big deal. Pete Wicks Ex-Towie star Pete Wicks is something of an authority on Celebrity SAS, as the only recruit to have taken on the show twice. Wicks had to be medically withdrawn early on in 2022, but returned for the 2024 series and made it to episode six. However, Wicks said that taking part in 2024's Strictly Come Dancing, where he reached the semi-final, was a much greater challenge. Asked on Loose Women in October which of his TV contests had been the most demanding, Wicks said: "Strictly. It's the toughest, by far. I did SAS twice. This is harder. It's more intense and it's so far out of my comfort zone." AJ Pritchard Surprisingly, former Strictly pro dancer AJ Pritchard shares Wicks' opinion. He took part in 2022 alongside his brother Curtis, who was culled in episode four, but AJ went on to pass the final. Asked whether Strictly or Celebrity SAS was tougher, he told PA news agency: "It's a really hard one. I think for me, SAS was so therapeutic and so beautiful and I feel like I achieved what I wanted. "But Strictly itself, being a professional dancer you are a life coach, you are the driving force, you are the person that puts it all together and holds it together when it's going wrong so mentally and physically, Strictly is a hell of a lot longer at six months. "And probably if SAS was for six months it'd be hard but Strictly for being six months is harder than SAS. I have to be open and honest about that. You are a life coach through and through – therapist, taxi man, everything else that comes along with it." Jeff Brazier Another celebrity who has opened up on a surprising show he found harder than Celebrity SAS is Jeff Brazier. The TV presenter took part in Celebrity Race Across the World with son Freddie in 2024, but despite viewers feeling envious of the once-in-a-lifetime trip from Brazil to Chile, Brazier claimed it was tougher than SAS training. During the BBC travel series, he spoke about finding it difficult to let go and have fun as a dad, as well as allowing Freddie to make some of their decisions. He told The Mirror: "I actually found it harder [than Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins]. People think I'm being silly by even suggesting that a travel show can be harder than being interrogated, hosed down and screamed at, but it's the five weeks of constant challenge and pressure." Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins will return to Channel 4 this summer.

Box Office: ‘Jurassic World Rebirth' Surpasses $750 Million, ‘F1' Becomes Brad Pitt's Highest-Grossing Movie Ever
'Jurassic World Rebirth' keeps roaring at the box office with ticket sales clearing the $750 million milestone over the weekend. Universal's dinosaur tentpole, which rebooted the pre-historic series with Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey and Mahershala Ali at the helm, has grossed $766 million globally after five weekends of release. It's one of three Hollywood films this year — Disney's 'Lilo & Stitch' ($1 billion) and Warner Bros. 'A Minecraft Movie' ($955 million) are the other two — to clear the $750 million mark so far. International audiences have been particularly enthusiastic, with overseas revenues contributing a massive $448 million to the total bounty. United Kingdom and Ireland ($42 million), Mexico ($34 million) and Germany ($28 million) rank as the top-earning territories. Those are mighty returns, however the latest 'Jurassic' has to keep climbing to near the heights of the prior sequel trilogy led by Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard, each of which grossed $1 billion globally. More from Variety 'Jurassic World Rebirth' Roars to the Top as U.K.-Ireland July Box Office Climbs 3% 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' Lands No. 1 Spot at U.K., Ireland Box Office as 'Saiyaara' Climbs the Chart Korea Box Office: 'Omniscient Reader' Debuts at No. 1, 'Fantastic Four' Bows in Third 'F1' is also staying strong at the box office, surpassing $545 million globally in its sixth lap around the track. With those ticket sales, the racing drama now stands as Brad Pitt's highest-grossing film in history, overtaking the haul of 2013's 'World War Z' ($540 million, not adjusted for inflation). 'F1' had long ago overtaken Martin Scorsese's 'Killers of the Flower Moon' ($158 million worldwide) and Ridley Scott's 'Napoleon' ($221 million) as Apple's largest theatrical film ever. 'Superman' also crossed a notable milestone with $550 million globally, a haul that includes $235 million overseas and $316 million domestically after four weekends. The Warner Bros. and DC comic book adventure has been underperforming at the international box office, at least compared to North America, which has accounted for nearly 60% of returns. (It's usually the inverse for all-audience tentpoles.) So far, the biggest markets have been the U.K. with $32 million, Mexico with $21.8 million and Brazil with $15 million. Meanwhile Disney and Marvel's 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' remained atop international charts with $39.6 million from 52 territories in its second weekend of release, declining 58% from its debut. So far, the superhero adaptation has grossed $368.7 million worldwide, including $170.3 million internationally and $198.4 million in North America. Overseas, the biggest territories are U.K. ($20.5 million), Mexico ($20.4 million) and France ($10.2 million). In terms of newcomers, Universal and DreamWorks Animation's heist comedy 'The Bad Guys 2' landed with $16.3 million from 58 territories. Those ticket sales are slightly ahead of 2022's 'The Bad Guys' in terms of like-for-like markets. Domestically, the sequel debuted to $22.8 million for a global start of $44.5 million. Sam Rockwell, Marc Maron, Craig Robinson lead the voice cast of 'The Bad Guys 2,' which carries an $80 million price tag and follows the newly reformed baddies as they emerge from retirement to perform one last heist. Another new release, Paramount's 'The Naked Gun' reboot, collected $11.5 million from 46 markets in its opening weekend. The film, starring Liam Neeson as bumbling police detective and Pamela Anderson as his unlikely accomplice, opened to $17 million in North America, bringing its worldwide tally to $28.5 million.
