A woman who took a shelter dog out for a night, as part of a program to give these animals a break from the chaotic environment, was heartbroken when she looked at the canine's reaction to returning.
Many animal shelters allow volunteers to take dogs out on field trips, such as a walk around the park, hanging out at a local cafe or even enjoying a sleepover in the person's home. Dogs who go on field trips are five times more likely to get adopted, an article from Adopt a Pet reported.
These field trip programs not only give these canines a break from the shelter environment, but they also give them greater exposure to potential adopters. Volunteers report back on the dog's behavior and snap extra pictures to make their profile stand out. Plus, it gives people a doggy fix if they do not have the time or means to adopt one of their own.
Janna, who is known as @jannahynds14 on TikTok, volunteered with the Arizona Humane Society Papago Park Campus and recently brought out a canine named Coco for a doggy sleepover. This 11-year-old German shepherd and Shar-pei mix has been in and out of the shelter since 2023, according to a Facebook post from the Arizona Humane Society.
She took her for a fun-filled day, featuring pup cups, running around outside and catching up on some much-needed sleep. Coco finally could relax. But the field trip only lasted one night.

As Janna drove her back to the shelter, she noticed Coco losing the smile she had during their adventure together. It looked to her that Coco was crying, which, in return, shattered Janna's heart.
Newsweek reached out to @jannahynds14 via TikTok for additional comment.
Janna posted a video of Coco appearing to cry in a July 12 TikTok video, which amassed over 78,100 views and 14,000 likes, pleading for someone to adopt Coco.
"He looks like he's been through a lot. Boosting for this little guy," wrote a viewer.
Another added: "You deserve a loving home, sweet baby."
A third user said: "Thank you for doing a day date!! They go back to the shelter decompressed and happy. Hopefully, someone will come meet her and give her a forever home. You did a great thing!"
While some thought Coco looked "defeated," Janna responded and believes she was just tired from their adventure-filled day.

Why Chris Hughes's compliment about JoJo Siwa's hairline made her burst into tears

JoJo Siwa just experienced an emotional revelation thanks to a sweet compliment from her boyfriend, Chris Hughes. In a clip shared across her social media profiles on 24th July4 the 'Karma' singer burst into tears as Chris told her she had a 'really good hairline.' The comment struck a chord with the former child star, as she revealed the feature used to be the 'number one thing' she was once bullied for in the public eye. 'I'm drying my hair right now, and he goes, 'You have a really good hairline.' That's the number one thing I was bullied for as a child,' JoJo said in the video as she wiped away her tears. The Love Island alum then reassured her and doubled down on his compliment, as he hugged her, saying, 'I love you. You have a really good hairline, it's got so much hair.' Despite popular belief that her signature high ponytail caused a bald spot and a receding hairline, the reality TV personality clarified that a 'stress rash' from her Dance Moms days had actually formed on her head in 2022. 'No, it's actually not from the ponytails, because if it was from my ponytails — considering it went on this side — it would be this,' she said in a TikTok clip at the time. 'When I was little, I had a really bad stress rash right here on Dance Moms, and I would pick at it all day long.' JoJo added, 'I damaged every single hair follicle that has ever been right there.' Three years later, JoJo reflected on her vulnerable moment with Chris. Alongside her emotional post, she wrote, 'He had no idea of the 2017-2020 hairline memes that I'm not affected by on the daily anymore, but him saying this out of thin air literally finished healing a part of me.' 'It's almost like I had a band aid over it for the last 8 years and just was leaving it there scared to look under it to see if it's healed,' she continued. 'He removed it being like why do u have this on before I could even explain what it was. Lucky lucky girl I am. Don't even think I realise how lucky sometimes.'

Despite being in its closing stages, the tour has begun to circulate widely on social media, with users widely meme-ifying and making jokes about Timberlake's performances. Newsweek has reached out to a representative for Timberlake outside of regular working hours via email for comment.

Justin Timberlake performs onstage during the 5th Lollapalooza Paris Festival on July 20, 2025 in Paris, France. Justin Timberlake performs onstage during the 5th Lollapalooza Paris Festival on July 20, 2025 in Paris, France. Lyvans Boolaky/WireImage Timberlake was arrested in June 2024 for driving while intoxicated (DWI) in Sag Harbor, New York. In September, he pleaded guilty to a noncriminal driving while impaired traffic violation and was fined and given community service. What To Know During recent appearances on the European leg of the tour, including stops in Romania and Ireland, the 10-time Grammy-winning singer is seen only singing parts of his songs in fan-captured footage. Some fans have also complained that he was arriving on stage late and amid the backlash there has been a wave of viral memes. Multiple clips of Timberlake performing the song from the Trolls soundtrack, Can't Stop The Feeling have gone viral. In one video, from a concert in Transylvania, Romania, Timberlake is shown performing with his hood up, partly singing the song and pointing his mic out to the crowd so that they could sing along. He then does the same thing for a number of other songs, failing to sing the whole songs himself. That video, which has the text overlay "Go girl give us nothing," has been viewed over 4 million times. Another video of him performing similarly at a concert in Dublin has been viewed over 18 million times. One TikTok, from the creator @90skid4lyfe, which has the text overlay "Imagine paying $500 for this type of energy at a Justin Timberlake concert in 2025," has been viewed over 20 million times. Another video, shared by the creator @snarkymarky, starts with the creator saying, "You can't do this to me, this is going to ruin the tour," with the text overlay "Justin Timberlake when he was getting arrested last year." The TikTok then cuts to a clip of @snarkymarky with the audio from the performance of Can't Stop The Feeling, and has the text overlay "The tour in question." This a reference to something that Timberlake allegedly muttered when he was arrested last year. An anonymous source told Page Six at the time that when Timberlake was arrested, he mumbled: "This is going to ruin the tour." The policeman replied "What tour?" to which Timberlake responded "The world tour." What People Are Saying @farrelhegarty posted a TikTok, viewed 7 million times, with the text overlay: "Justin Timberlake's concert interrupting his busy day." @sarcasticmommy4 wrote on X: "I wasn't even at Justin Timberlake's concert & I'd like a refund." @ladypositive, in a TikTok viewed over 750,000 times with the text overlay: "POV: Justin's concert is interrupting his breakfast." What's Next Timberlake's tour is scheduled to conclude on July 30 in Turkey.

Elon Musk's Tesla Diner Hit With Inflatable Nazi Protest

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. Elon Musk's Tesla-themed diner in Hollywood became the scene of an anti-Musk protest on Sunday. Protestors gathered outside the futuristic eatery with balloons resembling Musk that were animated to do Nazi salutes, in reference to a widely-criticized gesture that the tech billionaire made on President Donald Trump's Inauguration Day. Newsweek has contacted Musk for comment via Tesla's press office. The Context The Tesla CEO's new diner opened in Hollywood on Monday, though it has been unable to escape the wave of protests that have followed Musk's signature tech company since his work within the Trump administration. Protestors across the world have targeted Tesla in a reaction to Musk's actions in the Department of Government Efficiency, which the billionaire left in June, and many of those protests have used Nazi imagery after his gesture and support of a right-wing conservative party in last year's German elections. What To Know In images of the protest seen on Musk's own social media platform, X, formerly Twitter, a group of protesters can be seen standing outside the new diner with two balloons that resemble Musk. The inflatables have been made to constantly mimic the gesture Musk made in January, while the protesters hold signs that say, "Boycott Tesla." Well The Paid for and Sponsored by Soros Protesters are at it again at the Tesla diner 🤦‍♀️ — Susie Pollick 🦌 𝕏. (@nadjiasusie) July 27, 2025 Musk responded to the targeting of his new location on X, saying: "This is obviously a paid attack with no popular support, as it is just a few people with public passersby ignoring them. Only question is who's paying them?" The Tesla Diner on July 11, 2025, in Hollywood, California. The Tesla Diner on July 11, 2025, in Hollywood, California. Getty Images Protests against Tesla peaked in April and May this year, when Musk was at the height of his power in the White House. Since departing, actions against the company's vehicles have died down. Tesla reported its third quarter in a row of declining profits on Thursday, following a disappointing second quarter of 2025 that saw a 16 percent drop in profits. What People Are Saying Elon Musk wrote about the diner's launch on his social media platform X on Monday: "If our retro-futuristic diner turns out well, which I think it will, Tesla will establish these in major cities around the world, as well as at Supercharger sites on long-distance routes. An island of good food, good vibes and entertainment, all while Supercharging!" What Happens Next Musk has indicated that Tesla could expand the Diner & Drive-In format to additional urban centers and select Supercharger locations across the U.S. and globally, if the Hollywood pilot generates enough public interest and income.
