Goldendoodle Has 'Summer Haircut'—Internet Not Prepared for Result

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 dog's grooming transformation has wowed the internet. A dog mom called Jeannely (@jeannely_24) shared her goldendoodle's summer cut, which garnered 231,200 views and 13,400 likes on TikTok. "When it's time to get your annual summer haircut," she wrote as the text overlay on a clip of her shaggy poodle. "Goose is that you?" she captioned the video. The video shows Goose before his trim, sporting a long, curly, fluffy coat. Then it cuts to the after shot, revealing a dapper pup with a smooth, straight, and silky-soft finish. Goldendoodles, a cross between golden retrievers and poodles, are known for their friendly temperament, intelligence, and hypoallergenic coats. They're a popular choice for families and allergy sufferers alike, thanks to their minimal shedding and affectionate nature, according to PetMD. However, their coats require consistent care. As PetMD notes, goldendoodles need frequent brushing and regular grooming to prevent mats and tangles from forming. Without proper maintenance, their thick, curly fur can become uncomfortable and even painful for the dog. The Doodle Trust also stresses the importance of grooming, recommending doodles be brushed thoroughly at least three times a week and professionally groomed every 6–8 weeks. They warn that failing to keep on top of coat care can lead to matting that may only be resolved by shaving the coat short. A stock image showing a Maltipoo puppy on a dog groomer's table.

SeventyFour/iStock / Getty Images Plus TikTokers were quick to weigh in on Goose's glow-up—some with admiration, others confused by the phrase "annual summer haircut." "All doodles should be groomed every 6-7 weeks. If you can't afford the grooming then don't buy doodles," said one user. "ANNUAL SUMMER = because last time I checked summer is once a year.. I don't understand why so many people can't comprehend that statement. Clearly you can see from the doodle he gets multiple haircuts yearly," explained another user. The original poster replied: "Thank you! Lol I need to pin this comment!" Other commenters were more focused on Goose's transformation itself. "He's like my dog, twins," said JC. "The groomer did amazing on the face," said another user. "My doodle has this same coat. We brush him with a metal wire brush and he still looks like a matted ball," said Alejandra. "Awww new man," said Bruno. "Nice and cool cut for the summer!" said another user. Newsweek reached out to @jeannely_24 for comment via TikTok. We could not verify the details of the case.

27 Affordable Dog Products From Amazon

A paw soother stick to keep your dog's hands and feet comfortable while the two of you are out and about. This is great for helping with dryness and minor scrapes, whether you're hiking a trail, doing some urban exploring, or just hangin' on the couch. Promising reviews: "My Maltipoo's paws were starting to feel dry and rough, especially after long walks, but this balm worked wonders. The texture is smooth and easy to apply, absorbing quickly without leaving a greasy residue. I noticed a difference within a few days — her paws became noticeably softer and more moisturized. Plus, it's made with natural ingredients, so I feel confident using it regularly. I highly recommend this balm for anyone looking to protect and heal their dog's paws from dryness, cracks, or rough surfaces. It's a must-have for every pet owner." —Gizem Aktan"It immediately helped alleviate my Siberian Husky's dry and cracked foot pads. I love this product so much that it's now part of my auto-subscribe! Thank you for helping her!!" —StanPrice: $6.49+ (available in six sizes) A bottle of enzyme-activated Angry Orange stain remover for tackling those tough-to-get-rid-of accidents on most surfaces, including carpets, tile, concrete, fabric, and more. Plus, it leaves a nice citrus smell behind. Or! A spray bottle of this stain and odor remover that's *so* helpful if you don't want your house to smell like a urinal after pet accidents. My 14-year-old dog has a health condition that makes her pee all the time, and this spray has been a total game changer for when she has accidents inside. Promising reviews: "This spray is amazing. I have a senior diabetic dog who lost control of her bladder when she was hyperglycemic. I thought my gorgeous wool rugs would have to be thrown out, but this removed all trace of her urine." —GCJ"Our dog has diabetes and has accidents from time to time. This is the BEST product I've tried for this issue. ABSOLUTELY removes stains and odor from the put it on my monthly Subscribe & Save for delivery every few months. Don't product is the BEST!!" —Christine J. WarrenPrice: $23.92 A rubber broom with 78,000+ 5-star reviews to pick up hair, dust, dog fur, and more off of your carpets and rugs. You will be ASTONISHED by how much is embedded in there, even after you vacuum! A pack of 20 Bissell Stomp 'N Go carpet cleaning pads you just need to place on top of the mess, stomp on, and toss once you're done. It makes cleaning up not become a whole to do! Promising review: "I had a big stain on the bedroom carpet that I couldn't remove with other cleaning products, but I tried the Stomp 'N Go, and it worked perfectly. I always keep these on hand now — they've made cleaning so much easier for me. After having my hips replaced, I couldn't bend down to scrub carpets, which is sometimes necessary with pets. Now, I don't have to worry. It's much easier than using a carpet cleaner and dealing with water and all the setup." —Juliet SierraPrice: $27.48 A nose balm that uses natural ingredients like shea butter and aloe vera to moisturize, soothe, and heal dry snoots in need of a little extra TLC. Promising review: "My dog had a disgusting dry nose that was bumpy with weird scales sticking up. I had no idea what it was and thought I might need to take her to the vet. After some googling, I found it looked like hyperkeratosis, so I decided to give this product a try. It has worked wonders! After two weeks of (mostly) regular application, my dog's nose is totally back to normal. I love that it comes in a twist-up stick, so you can just rub it on their nose without getting it all over your hands. This is an awesome product!" —Lacey BeanPrice: $6.49 (available in seven sizes) A water additive made with peppermint oil and apple cider vinegar for the pup who just loves to give you kisses (and you can't stand the smell of their breath). It also helps cut down on plaque, so hopefully, you'll save some money on dental bills down the line. Promising review: "This was recommended by my veterinarian to reduce tartar, plaque, and bacteria from my fur baby's teeth. It really helps with her breath, and overall dental health. If you start using this when your dog is a puppy, you may never have to have their teeth professionally cleaned. That, in and of itself, is worth using this daily without fail. Dental cleaning for dogs costs over $1,200, which is unaffordable for most of us. Do yourself a favor to help with your dog's dental hygiene and buy this for them. You add 1 tablespoon per quart of cold water and pour it into their freshly washed bowl every day. I keep her solution in the refrigerator so it's nice and cold. It has no flavor or scent. Buy it!" —~NancyPrice: $8.84+ (available in five sizes and a formula that's safe for both dogs and cats) A paw cleaner because your doggy tends to track in some dirt when they come inside. It features a gentle rubber brush head and a foaming, no-rinse solution. All you gotta do is scrub a bit of the solution on, wipe their paws off with a towel, and send them on their way! Promising review: "This foam is a game changer! My Labs tolerated the wipes on their feet, but this foam and applicator make cleaning faster and easier. The applicator is soft, doesn't get caught on paw pads or fur, and leaves the pads clean and soft. Have a paper towel handy, as so much dirt is removed with just one pump. Amazing product!" —Ron $6.24+ (available in three pack sizes) A TubShroom that will catch all your pet's hair going down the drain during bath time before it can clog up your pipes. And as a bonus, it'll catch your hair in the shower as well! An all-purpose car upholstery cleaner if you bring your dog with you on fun adventures, but somehow, they always get back into the car covered in mud or dirt. This stuff will help your car look like a dog has never stepped foot inside! A water-based Folex carpet cleaner that's odorless, so when you clean up your pet's nasty mess, you're not overwhelmed by an overwhelming aroma of something else pungent, like oranges or lavender. A travel-size hair removal tool that's small enough to take anywhere. Keep one in your car or bring it with you on a weekend trip so your doggo doesn't turn the Airbnb into a furry hellscape. A bottle of Grandma's Secret that's an under-the-radar solution with serious stain-removing prowess — peep at the couch below if you're still not convinced. Reviewers love this formula for cleaning up doggie messes. An allergy supplement containing probiotics that will help with your furry friend's immune system, promote healthy skin, and add shine to their coat. A flea, tick, and mosquito spray to help protect your furry besties from dangerous parasites that can lead to Lyme disease and heart worm. Promising reviews: "I rarely do reviews, however, I have been using this spray for about a month now and had to come back and write an honest review. The ticks have been really bad this time of year at my property, and I go there often with my dogs. I would be there for five minutes and have several ticks already crawling on me and the dogs. I bought this spray with very low expectations, but it honestly works SO well. I spray it on my shoes and ankles and all over the dogs. 99% of the time, I won't find any ticks on me or them! I would definitely say reapply if you will be somewhere with ticks for more than an hour. I have had a couple of ticks here and there but that is drastically better compared to finding 10+ on me. I will be buying many more bottles to get through the hot months!" —Amanda"I'm so glad I found this natural flea spray. Living in Texas, we are always fighting fleas. The natural oils really help my dogs without all of the poison. I bathed them, then lightly sprayed their backs and legs. I also rinsed a bit off since I wasn't sure how they would react, but they weren't bothered by the smell. Definitely giving it five stars." —Candice WhitePrice: $26.99+ (available in three sizes and four scents) A dog paw washer so you can quickly and efficiently clean your pup's filthy paws before they come back inside and turn your beautiful carpet into a muddy mess. A Swiffer you can use with dry *and* wet pads to clean up hair on carpets, as well as urine, vomit, or any other bodily liquids on hard surfaces like wood or tile. A Pooph pet-odor eliminator so your whole home doesn't stink of pet waste. Plus, this spray is scent-free if you're sensitive to smells! Promising review: "I recently adopted a puppy who not only had a few urine accidents in the house, but she also had surgery to repair a prolapsed rectum, so sometimes she has poop accidents as well. I have a few area rugs where the accidents took place, and I could not get rid of the odor! I tried everything I could find with no luck. Then I tried this, and it honestly works! No perfume scent, it just worked. I will say that after a few days, I have to spray again, but as long as I keep up with the spray, the rugs smell fresh! I'd rather not replace the rugs yet since she's still a puppy, so this is perfect in the interim." —Dog Mom DaniPrice: $23.95+ (available in seven styles) A helpful ChomChom pet hair remover boasting over 97,000 5-star ratings for the person who has an especially hairy dog who they love more than anything (but they're not a huge fan of going through lint rollers like they're goin' outta style). A low-noise pet grooming kit and vacuum so you can literally vacuum the hair directly off your pup rather than waiting to clean it up after shedding. It also comes with hair-trimming tools, brushes, and nail clippers. Basically, it's a professional pet salon at home because your furry friend deserves ~luxury.~ Promising review: "So easy to use and best thing about it is my dog is not scared of it! I for sure thought she would be but she was not! I used the brush on her which worked great on her long fur (I have a German Shepherd) and I proceeded to use the clippers! The suction on it is strong and it's really mess free! Cut grooming time in half! Highly recommend! Not sure how I managed before getting this!" —ShannonPrice: $79.99+ (available in three colors) Or a hair-removing glove for the pet who absolutely hates getting brushed but loves getting belly rubs and pets. You get rid of future shedding and they get a full body massage. Win-win! Promising review: "Awesome pet hair remover! I have a Korat mix cat with short hair that's impossible to groom with a brush. I've tried all kinds of combs and brushes and nothing has worked well on him. I took this out of the package, I showed it to him and let him sniff it and then pet him with it. This thing is awesome! With just a few strokes I removed a ton of cat hair. I highly recommend this for hard-to-groom cats." —LB in the OCPrice: $7.99 A portable Pet-Wedge hair remover, ideal if you have your dog in the car with you a lot and are tired of your car basically just being a fur factory on wheels. Also awesome if you travel with your pet and want to keep your hotel or Airbnb a ~ hair-free ~ environment. A pet-ear cleanser formulated with 1% hydrocortisone that won't stink your pup's ears. It also helps protect against fungal and bacterial infections!! A waterless pet shampoo if your pup absolutely can't stand bath time but smells like, well a wet dog. Plus, you'll love the scent options of lavender, lemongrass, or oatmeal-and-apple! A self-cleaning slicker brush if you need a versatile grooming tool for cats *and* dogs of all sizes and hair types. It gently removes loose fur, tangles, and dander while keeping your dog or cat looking their best. When you're done, just press the button to retract the bristles and wipe the fur away — no more digging hair out by hand. Arm & Hammer odor-buster balls since your pup's bed area is super stinky and you don't want to have to toss it out because it's their favorite place in the whole house. And finally, a container of ear finger wipes that make cleaning out your pup's ears a breeze. Plus, they're hypoallergenic, so they won't leave their sweet lil' ears irritated. Promising review: "They're thicker than I expected, which makes them super easy to use without tearing or getting messy. The fresh aloe scent is a nice touch, and it helps deodorize while gently cleaning away wax and buildup. My dog, cat, and even my rabbit don't mind them at all, which is a huge win. It's a quick and natural way to handle ear care, and the 50-count pack lasts a good while. Definitely a must-have for pet parents looking to keep things simple!" —ElenaPrice: $14.59 for 50 wipes

I traveled to the world's least-visited country, which may disappear by 2050. Here are 7 things I wish I knew before I went.

I love learning about unique cultures and spend a lot of time researching how to visit new countries in the most economical way possible. I've traveled to 140 countries, the majority as a solo traveler (though my Maltipoo dog Kimchi has accompanied me to eight countries and counting). My latest adventure was my most logistically challenging yet: I went to Tuvalu, a small South Pacific island nation roughly halfway between Hawaii and Australia, that may be completely underwater by 2050 due to climate change. Tuvalu is the least-visited country in the world, drawing only about 3,700 travelers a year. With minimal infrastructure, little tourism promotion, and rising sea levels threatening its future, it remains largely off the global travel map. I've been to other less-touristed destinations before — Bhutan, Bangladesh, Algeria — that were complex due to hard-to-get visas, limited infrastructure, or safety concerns. Tuvalu presented a new kind of challenge: It's incredibly difficult to coordinate flights, and there's limited travel information online. I stayed in Tuvalu for three days and two nights. Here's what I wish I'd known before going. 1. There's only one way in and out — and you can save on flights by being strategic An 'aha' moment on the Tuvalu trip was when I told my driver I was afraid of missing my flight, and he reminded me, "The plane hasn't landed, so don't worry." Tuvalu is the only country I've visited where, each day, there's one plane in and one plane out, so your Flight Information Display System is literally the sky. Tuvalu's only airport on the main island, Funafuti International Airport (FUN), is served exclusively by Fiji Airways. Flights are very limited and currently include from Nadi, Fiji, once a week (Monday) and from Suva, Fiji, three times a week (Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday). Travelers who aim to visit all 197 countries often plan ahead for their Tuvalu trip, knowing flights are difficult to coordinate. To avoid paying thousands of dollars, my recommendation is to wait for a Fiji Airways annual sale to book a round-trip flight from San Francisco (SFO) to Nadi. I've seen fares as low as $700 round-trip, which is a steal, as they're normally $1,000+. My flights from Fiji to Tuvalu were another $700 round-trip. It's advised to add a buffer day in Fiji before connecting to Tuvalu. 2. Hotel bookings can get complicated When coordinating international travel in the South Pacific, it's important to account for the International Date Line. I departed San Francisco on a Sunday night and arrived at my destination Tuesday morning — only to realize I had mistakenly booked a hotel for Monday night. The 11.5-hour flight effectively skipped Monday entirely due to the time zone shift, a common oversight when crossing the date line. (Luckily, the hotel was kind enough to accept a late cancel for me.) Tuvalu has limited hotel rooms and — like the flights — they often sell out. In addition to tourists, construction crews from Australia and other nearby nations visit to support the Tuvalu Coastal Adaptation Project, which pumps sand from the seabed and deposits it along the shoreline to combat rising sea levels. I had to email several hotels before I found a vacancy at NiuEti Lodge. 3. Expect a crowd at the runway — but not a taxi Tuvalu's airport runway runs straight through the center of the island, doubling as a community space when no flights are scheduled. On off days, locals gather on the airstrip to play volleyball, soccer, and other sports — making the runway as much a playground as a point of entry. When I landed, I hadn't realized there were no taxis. I asked how to get a ride, and without hesitation, a local offered to drive me, refusing any payment. Just as we were about to leave, I spotted a small sign for my hotel and a woman calling my name. It turned out to be a personalized pickup I hadn't expected — there was no mention of it in my hotel confirmation. 4. Bring cash Before we hit the road, I asked if there was an ATM. The airport staff excitedly showed me the ATM behind a red velvet curtain — they assumed I wanted to see the country's first ATM that was being unveiled and becoming operational later that month, not that I needed cash ASAP. The ATM wasn't yet working, so I had to visit the bank and Western Union myself money, as I didn't bring enough cash. Tuvalu only accepts Australian dollars (AUD), so Fiji dollars from the ATM during your layover won't work, and credit cards are rarely accepted, even at hotels. It's best to bring AUD or carry extra USD or EUR to exchange. 5. Food options are limited Tuvalu imports nearly all of its food, and prices can be quite high — comparable to New York City — so budget accordingly. I ate most of my meals at 3T's restaurant, an open-air casual Chinese restaurant by the beach that specializes in fresh fish stir fry for $11 to 15 AUD. It was filled with locals enjoying the food washed down by Fanta Maracujá, a tangy passion fruit soda that's super popular on the island. The grocery store was sparsely stocked, with one variety of many staples — Corn Flakes for $6 AUD and Ritz crackers for $6 AUD. The store was sold out of bananas, though I found a small market at the airport with a few bunches of local small bananas. 6. Locals are incredibly welcoming, and it's fun to explore on foot Tuvaluans are kind, close-knit, and eager to help. You can walk nearly everywhere; the main island of Funafuti is only 0.93 square miles of land area. Crime is rare. I always felt safe, although there aren't many street lamps on the island, so plan ahead for a ride when coming back to your hotel at night. I was offered rides from locals more than once, even if I told them my destination was close by. Exploring on foot gives you a front row seat to locals fishing, playing with their dogs, and taking a dip in the ocean. Fun facts I learned when exploring the island: Tuvalu owns the .tv country code top-level domain, meaning it sells .tv to companies such as or and one of the church services they offer is held in the water. A local told me that Simon Kofe, Minister for Transport, Energy, Communications, and Innovation, was on my return flight to Fiji. He's well known for his advocacy work on climate change, including Tuvalu's project to make a digital clone of the country in the metaverse to preserve its culture. We took a photo and chatted about Tuvalu's new passenger and cargo vessel, the Manu Sina. 7. Visitors are expected to respect and protect the environment To help preserve Tuvalu's environment and culture, visitors are encouraged to follow local practices that respect preservation, wildlife protection, and environmental care. That means recycling and conserving energy — no blasting air conditioning or lighting up LED displays like we do in New York. Of all the countries I've visited — including Mongolia, Madagascar, and Suriname — Tuvalu stands out as one of the most culturally fascinating. If you value sustainable and responsible tourism, it deserves a spot on your list.

Woman Doesn't Open Door for Dog Immediately, Gets 'Dirtiest' Stare

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 Maltipoo's indignant reaction to his owner's delayed response to his "doorbell" has gone viral on TikTok. The clip, posted by the pup's owner, captured his hilarious and demanding nature when it comes to being let outside. The video, which has received over 734,000 views, has resonated with countless pet parents who are familiar with their furry friends' unique ways of expressing themselves. "POV [point of view]: you don't open the door immediately after he rings so you get the dirtiest stare," the owner captioned the video. "He's like 'UMMMM HELLO'. This dog is too much." The footage first shows the Maltipoo ringing a bell hung on the door, a clear signal that he needs to go outside. When his owner doesn't immediately spring to action, he then sashays around the couch, fixing her with a stare. The dog's expressive gaze and demeanor struck a chord with TikTok users, many of whom have experienced similar moments of impatience. "He definitely said, 'Imma count to three and if I don't see legs moving,'" one commenter quipped. "My Maltipoos do the same thing, except they come to the bottom of the stairs and wait for me to come down while staring at me," another wrote. The phenomenon of the "judgment stare" was a common theme: "I know exactly what you are talking about," a commenter wrote. "I call it the judgment stare. I have a Maltese. I always joke he stares like, 'You know what I want, we do this everyday, lady.'" Stock image: A dog waits at a door to be let inside. Stock image: A dog waits at a door to be let inside. dimarik/Getty Images Bell Training for Puppies Teaching dogs to ring a bell to signal their need to go outside is a popular and effective method for improving communication between pets and their owners. A blog post from the American Kennel Club says this practice "is a simple way to streamline communication with [dogs]." The AKC notes that while many canines naturally go to the door or bark when they need to go out, introducing a bell or button can help them "clearly tell you what they need and want." This skill is beneficial for dogs of all ages and is particularly useful during potty training for puppies—a process the creator is clearly familiar with. The AKC outlined a three-step process for teaching a dog to ring a bell by the door: first, introduce the bell and reward their engagement; second, consistently ring the bell yourself each time you take the pup out; and third, wait for the dog to begin ringing the bell on their own, then immediately take them outside with praise. This method focuses on demonstrating the behavior so the dog can make the association and mirror it. The AKC emphasized that this shared language can "decrease frustration in the home and increase your bond" and also helps dogs communicate with other household members or pet sitters. The viral video of the Maltipoo illustrates the successful outcome of this type of training, even if it does lead to some stern stares from a very impatient pup.

Owner Cannot Find Maltipoo During Thunderstorm—Tears Over Who He's With

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 dog's precious response to a thunderstorm left viewers in tears over how he wanted to stay safe, and with whom. The owner, known on TikTok as @banditofhearts, couldn't find her Maltipoo—a crossbreed of a Maltese and a toy or miniature poodle—anywhere when the thunderstorm rolled through. "I checked in my closet and bathroom, and I thought it was strange I couldn't find him anywhere since we lived in a studio apartment and there weren't many places he could go," the owner told Newsweek via TikTok. She spent several minutes searching the small apartment until it finally dawned on her: check behind and under the furniture. It turns out the tiny dog named Bandit managed to sneak his way under the bed, a safe place for him during the scary storm. But, as the owner showed in a June 15 TikTok video, Bandit decided to bring his "thunder buddy" with him. The pup hid under the bed with his favorite toy, a stuffed animal rabbit. The owner found him with his head on the ground, with his back paws placed on top of the toy rabbit's ears, keeping him warm as they waited out the storm.

Screenshots from a June 15 TikTok video of a Maltipoo hiding under the bed with a stuffed animal during a thunderstorm. @banditofhearts/TikTok Bandit had deliberate intentions on which toy to bring with him to keep him company. The owner said that the stuffed animal is Bandit's favorite. "It's one of his first toys that I had waiting for him when we brought him home as a puppy, and he still has it now at 3 years old," the owner said. Within three days, the TikTok clip reached over 634,000 views, more than 165,000 likes and nearly 220 comments. "His bestie keeping him safe," commented one viewer. Another added: "I thought he was a plushie too at first." A third user wrote: "The way I'd crawl under there with him." Several others shared how their pets exhibit the same behavior during thunderstorms or fireworks. There could be several reasons canines hate thunderstorms; however, an article from the American Kennel Club reported that it could likely be due to the loud sounds, as a canine's hearing is significantly more powerful than a human's. Furthermore, dogs are more in touch with changes in the environment. With a storm approaching, these animals can sense different air pressures or static electricity.
