Owner Cries As Senior Dachshund Sticks to Her 'Little Path' in Yard
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 ten-year-old dachshund named Beca has melted hearts online after strolling her way into viral fame on TikTok. The short clip has melted hearts as the senior pup showed off her peculiar walking preference to over 15 million viewers since being posted earlier this week. In the video, she was delicately navigating a slim strip of smooth path in her backyard, carefully sidestepping the surrounding cobblestones. Posted by a friend of Beca's owner, @mariamnlv, who goes by Mariam on TikTok, she wrote: "She only walks on the little path. I'm crying." As the moment gained more attention, people flooded the comments with affection. "Doggo has lil sensory needs," one viewer, Ren, wrote. While another chimed in: "Don't like them cobbles on the beans!" Even brands joined the chorus. Walmart declared, "We love a delicate little lady," while fashion retailer Princess Polly added: "The perfect size path and all." And LidlGB quipped: "She's just a Lidl baby." Referencing the viral meme, Burger King Deutschland said: "MY SHAYLA," and TULA skincare commented, alongside a nail varnish emoji: "It's her little runway." One viewer summed it up: "Not to be dramatic but I would die for her." Another dachshund parent shared that their pup followed snow-covered routes from memory—"She was a little OCD, but we loved her." And responding to comments the stones hurt Beca's feet, Mariam confirmed: "The pebbles don't hurt..." When it comes to walking dogs, most paths are fine for dogs' paws, although there are some surfaces that should be avoided by owners. Hot sidewalks, asphalt and artificial grass can also pose a risk in warm weather, even when the air temperature feels comfortable. For example, at just 77degrees Fahrenheit, asphalt can reach 125 degrees Fahrenheit, which is hot enough to burn a dog's paws within a minute.

Ice can cause slips and prolonged exposure to cold surfaces can lead to discomfort and even ice burn. It is also a good idea to avoid paths with broken or too much uneven surface, and off-road walking along nature trails can lead to other hazards. Snakes, poisonous plants and ticks can all hide in wild areas and pose a risk to pets. This isn't the first time dogs have gone viral on a narrow path. In 2023 two Corgis left people in stitches when they refused to let a narrow path stop them from their adventure. In a post on TIkTok, Finn and Fry managed to figure out how to continue walking side-by-side despite the narrow path on their hike in California.

Review – Trinity, Daughter of Wonder Woman #1: Continuity, Corgis, and Chaos
Trinity, Daughter of Wonder Woman #1 cover, via DC Comics. Ray: Tom King is known for his deeply emotional, intense comic books, but his Wonder Woman run reminded me of one thing about him – he's also very funny. His Trinity backups, which saw the young daughter of Wonder Woman (and Steve Trevor) being supervised and trained by an older Damian Wayne and Jon Kent, were some of the highlights of the first era of that run, particularly an issue where Jon and Damian were turned into super-corgis. When a solo title was announced, I wondered if this offbeat tone could truly be translated into an ongoing series. I shouldn't have worried – this issue is just as frantic as the backups, but with a strong emotional core. When we pick up, pint-sized Trinity is bopping through the multiverse in search of Jon and Damian – who have once again been turned into Corgis for reasons unknown. She encounters a despairing Pariah, in the midst of the collapse of a world, and proceeds to confuse him further. The great corgi chase. Via DC Comics. From there, we flash back to how all this chaos began. If I have one quibble with this series, it's that Jon and Damian should probably be adults by the time Trinity is around five (Jon already is), but they acts like squabbling, immature teens here. But it's very funny – and it leads them to not noticing that Trinity is very sad about not getting to meet her dad. Through a chaotic series of events, this leads to her meeting her teen self – and the two then go and track down their adult self, pulling her into an adventure to rescue Steve that has unintended consequences on the timeline. Corgi-shaped consequences. But the ending of this issue is a big surprise, playing on the events of another Tom King-penned backup and setting the stakes high for this series. Trinity is obviously a new character without many defining stories, but this issue was a strong start combining real pathos with some great Silver Age-style silliness.

‘I'm sure it's her, reminding me she's still around,' says Sarah, Duchess of York of the late Queen's Corgis
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Queen Elizabeth II was always known for her love of Corgis. The late monarch owned over 30 of the dogs over the years, with Muick and Sandy being the last dogs she had before her death in September 2022. In the aftermath, they were adopted by her son, Prince Andrew, and his ex-wife, Sarah, Duchess of York, to enjoy the rest of their life filled with lots of affection and plenty of the best dog treats. Speaking in an address to the Creative Woman Platform in London, the Duchess said that she thinks the Queen talks to her through dogs Muick and Sandy, who live at the Royal Lodge in Windsor with herself and Andrew – and a handful of Norfolk terriers. She said, via The Times, 'I have her dogs, I have her Corgis. Every morning they come in and go, 'woof woof' and all that and I'm sure it's her talking to me. I'm sure it's her, reminding me she's still around.' She then paid tribute to the late Queen, saying, 'Anyway, the real thing is that I had the greatest honor to be her daughter-in-law. That's pretty huge. And when I was driving here, I saw the [London Underground's] Elizabeth line and I said, 'I want everyone to remember what an amazing lady she was.'' Andrew and his daughters Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie gave the Queen Muick alongside a Dorgi (Corgi-dachshund mix) Fergus, in 2021. Fergus sadly died from a heart defect when he was five months old, so later that year the trio gave the Queen another Corgi puppy, Sandy. Shortly after the Queen died, a source told the BBC that it was Sarah who found the puppies, and that 'the duchess bonded with Her Majesty over dog walking and riding horses, and even after her divorce, she would continue her great friendship with Her Majesty, by walking the dogs in Frogmore and chatting." In 2023, Sarah said that the Corgis were so close to the Queen that Muick had grieved after her death. She told dog trainer and presenter Graeme Hall that it took the dog about a year to come to accept it, with Hall explaining, via The Independent, 'There's a kind of grieving process, and we know that dogs do go through a grieving process as well. We don't fully understand it because we can't chat to them over a cup of coffee, but you certainly see behavior change, sometimes they're very flat.' Meanwhile, the Queen's son King Charles and his wife Queen Camilla have dogs of their own. Between them, they currently have a Jack Russell Terrier, Bluebell, Jack Russell mix Moley – who Camilla adopted earlier this year – and King Charles' new puppy, a Lagotto Romagnolo, Snuff.

Inside home of pet loving Wales family from sad loss to adorable new arrivals
While the Royal family are well known for their love of pets, Princess Kate, Prince William, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis are smitten with a few new furry additions to the home When you think of the late Queen Elizabeth II, images of cute Corgis may also spring to mind, so it's perhaps little surprise that the Prince and Princess in line to the throne are also dog lovers. And they are now said to be celebrating the tiny pitter-patter of feet as their beloved black cocker spaniel Orla has reportedly welcomed a litter of puppies. The Royal children, Prince George, aged 11, Princess Charlotte, nine, and Prince Louis, six, are said to be utterly smitten with the new pooches, but will there be room in their quaint four-bedroom cottage for the new arrivals? There's definitely plenty of space for walkies in the 655-acre grounds surrounding Adelaide Cottage in the Home Counties, where the Prince and Princess of Wales live - although there's no news on whether they plan to keep the four new pups. It's only a 10-minute stroll from Windsor Castle, where King Charles and Queen Camilla live with their Jack Russell Terrier, Bluebell. They had another Jack Russell, Beth, who sadly died in 2024. According to the Express, the mother and babies are doing well. 'We always thought the patter of tiny feet in the Wales's household had ended, so the sound of tiny paws will have to do,' a source said. Everyone loves new royal baby news, and so new royal puppies run very close. Everyone is very excited, not least the three children, who adore Orla and Lupo before." READ MORE: Michael Jackson's bizarre gravity-defying shoes and other inventions from celebrities The family welcomed Orla into their home in 2020, the same year they lost their beloved dog, Lupo. The adorable pooch is a pup from the litter of a dog belonging to Kate's brother James Middleton, who is known to be an avid dog lover himself. In a touching gesture last month, William and Kate posted a picture of Orla in honour of National Pet Day. The Royal couple dedicated their social media message to the occasion with the following heartfelt words: "Celebrating the animals who bring so much joy, companionship and love to our lives this #NationalPetDay." Meanwhile, the public has a lot of love for the Prince and Princess of Wales, which was clear in a video recently shared on Instagram. As the Prince and Princess of Wales were greeted by a crowd during their latest public outing, someone shouted at Kate, "You're beautiful," adding, "You too, William!" The couple giggled in response, with William jokingly responding: "You don't have to say that. Don't worry.' They were on a visit to Scotland for a ship-naming ceremony for HMS Glasgow. Scotland has a special meaning to the couple, who met as first-year college students at the University of St. Andrews in 2001. They befriended each other and became roommates before dating and falling in love.
