'Irresponsible' TikTok trend sees owners scaring dogs on Halloween
While many see the latest TikTok trend as funny, Dr Anna Foreman, the in-house vet at Everypaw Pet Insurance, has blasted it as 'irresponsible'.
A recent viral video, uploaded by social media user Kayleigh Nolan (@kaynolan90) on October 14, 2025, has delighted viewers across the internet, capturing the amusing and spirited reaction of an English Bulldog to a Halloween clown decoration. The short clip, filmed in a home in the United Kingdom, begins with the curious bulldog cautiously investigating a seemingly static clown figure adorned in striped attire. The scene takes a humorous turn when the animated decoration suddenly activates, emitting spooky sounds and performing a startling movement. The bulldog, visibly taken aback, immediately retreats while barking vigorously, expressing a clear mix of surprise and alarm. Moments later, a second bulldog joins its companion, and both canines are seen standing together, barking in unison towards the now active clown. Their combined vocal protest and cautious demeanor have resonated with many, providing a relatable glimpse into how pets react to unexpected holiday decor. "They were definitely not impressed by our new Halloween guest," commented Nolan in her video description, perfectly encapsulating the dogs' entertaining response. The video, which has quickly accumulated over 400 views and dozens of likes, serves as a charming example of the lighthearted moments pet owners often experience, appealing broadly to animal enthusiasts and those seeking a dose of seasonal cheer. This interaction underscores the endearing and often comical ways our furry companions perceive and respond to their environments, especially during festive times.
