Video: Owner Proves Yorkie Might Not Be Her ‘Kid' But Is Her ‘Whole World'
Ask any dog parent if their pup is 'just a dog,' and prepare for a very long, emotionally charged rebuttal. From meal prep to daily routines, many pet owners find themselves doing nearly everything a parent would, just for a four-legged 'kid' who never talks back. One Yorkie mom has taken that comparison to heart in a recent video, and the internet is loving the way she shows just how 'not a kid' her pup really is. Zuko, a small Yorkshire Terrier, is featured in a video uploaded to the TikTok account @zukoslittlelife. The short clip is going viral for its quiet but powerful message: pets can be just as important and cherished as children. It opens with a line many pet parents have heard very often: 'He's not your kid.' The camera shows Zuko standing in a room surrounded by scattered toys. The scene then shifts to his owner gathering the toys and placing them back into a bin, while the caption reads, 'As I pick up all his toys and place them back in his bin for the next time he wants to play.' The theme carries on with a shot of the owner preparing breakfast — not just for herself, but for Zuko too — making sure he starts his day with a healthy meal. Each new clip contrasts the repeated phrase, 'He's not your kid,' with loving, thoughtful actions that reflect the deep bond they share. From taking him outside for exercise and fresh air to washing his blankets so he sleeps soundly, every detail mirrors the care a parent gives a child. She even teaches him new tricks to keep his mind sharp, nurturing his growth much like any devoted caregiver would. The video closes with a heartfelt admission: 'Yeah, he's not my kid… He's my heart… My whole world.' Zuko may not be her biological child, but the love and devotion she shows him are every bit as genuine. In her final message, she gently acknowledges those who might not understand that kind of connection, hoping they, too, one day meet a dog who changes their life in the same way Zuko has transformed hers. The post Video: Owner Proves Yorkie Might Not Be Her 'Kid' But Is Her 'Whole World' appeared first on DogTime.

John Travolta drops in at 'Grease' Hollywood Bowl performance dressed as Danny Zuko
Tell us about it, stud. John Travolta revived one of his most iconic characters over the weekend, surprising crowds at the Hollywood Bowl with a cameo as Danny Zuko in the venue's singalong "Grease" event June 27. Travolta, who played the greaser heartthrob in the original 1978 film, donned a leather jacket and slicked-back hair for the surprise appearance, delighting fans who themselves had dressed up for the occasion. "Tonight at the Hollywood Bowl, for the first time I surprised everyone at the GREASE Sing-A-Long and dressed up as Danny Zuko," Travolta, 71, wrote on Instagram. John Travolta recalls candid discussion about death with son Ben, 10, after wife Kelly Preston died "No one knew. Not even the cast. Thank you for a great evening," he wrote, alongside a photo of him in full Zuko garb and a video of his appearance. In the video, Travolta can be heard reciting some of Zuko's iconic lines in front of a roaring crowd, before instructing them to enjoy the show – a showing of "Grease" in which audience members are invited to sing along with the lyrics appearing on screen. Danny and Sandy finally get their movie-ending 'Grease' kiss, 40 years after it was cut Travolta wasn't the only "Grease" star who dropped in for the Hollywood Bowl showing. Joining him on stage was the film's director Randal Kleiser alongside Didi Conn, Barry Pearl, Kelly Ward and Michael Tucci, all who played Zuko's fellow high schoolers in the hit movie musical. Travolta's biggest name costar, Olivia Newton-John, died in 2022 after a battle with breast cancer. "My dearest Olivia, you made all of our lives so much better," Travolta wrote in an Instagram post at the time. "Your impact was incredible. I love you so much. We will see you down the road and we will all be together again. Yours from the first moment I saw you and forever! Your Danny, your John!"

Hawaiian Humane Society cares for dog seen in social media abuse video
HONOLULU (KHON2) — The dog who was seen captured on video being swung around by a woman is now being cared for by the Hawaiian Humane Society. Hawaiian Humane Society President and CEO Anna Neubauer confirmed in a statement that Zuko is safe and is in good spirits. Hawaiian Humane Society opening opportunities for teens HHS Field Service officers cited the woman with second-degree animal cruelty and brought Zuko back to the Hawaiian Humane Society's Mōʻiliʻili Campus for further medical evaluation. Officials urge the public to report animal cruelty and abuse to authorities as soon as possible, as posting video on social media before a report is made could jeopardize the case. 'And what I want to stress, you know, is if you see something, say something immediately and try not to think 'Oh, let me post this on social media first,'' said Brandy Shimabukuro, HHS Communications Manager.'So if you see an animal emergency, please call it into the authorities so that investigations can happen very quickly and we can seek justice for these animals who certainly don't deserve the treatment that they've had to endure,' Shimabukuro added. The Humane Society is pushing for the passage of HB698, which would increase penalties for animal abuse. The Hawaiian Humane Society remains committed to ensuring the welfare of all animals on Oʻahu. We will continue to work diligently with HPD and the community to investigate reports of animal cruelty and to hold offenders accountable.
