It’s always heartbreaking when dogs are surrendered to shelters by their owners. These dogs are upended from the only home they’ve never known, confused about why they’re in these new surroundings without their familiar family.
That’s what one video shows, after a dog was surrendered by his family after 2 years — but beneath the heartbreak, there is hope.
Last month, a dog named Carlton was surrendered to Special Pals animal shelter in Houston, Texas, by the owners he had been with for 2 years.
Shelter director Becky French posted a video of the 2-year-old mixed breed dog on TikTok, showing Carlton’s heartbreak and confusion in his first day at the shelter.
“He doesn’t understand where his person went,” Becky wrote. “He kept returning to the spot his owner sat with him before leaving.”
The video also shows the dog refusing to take a treat or even look at the staff. he is scared. Confused,” Becky wrote. “This is what your dog goes through when they go back to a shelter.”
Despite the heartbreak, Becky wrote that they were able to “get some happy moments” out of the surrendered dog, and hope that he finds a new forever home soon.
“Don’t worry buddy. You are safe and will find a new home someday.”
It’s always a rough transition, but there are signs that Carlton — now known as “Posty” is acclimating well to shelter life. In a follow-up video, Becky said that they learned he is “obsessed with balls,” and he can be seen happily playing with shelter staff.
Despite the heartbreak he went through, he has improved and is “a happy boy now,” Becky wrote.
He is still up for adoption and waiting for a home — if you are interested in adopting, you can reach out to Special Pals via their adoption page.
Becky also shared an Amazon wish list for anyone who wants to buy an item for Carlton/Posty, which includes many of his favorite balls.
It’s heartbreaking to see this sweet dog surrendered to the shelter, suddenly losing the only home he’s ever known, but we hope that Carlton/Posty finds a great new home soon.

Taylor Swift’s Freckled Makeup at Kansas City Chiefs Game Is Under Discussion: Too ‘Mature’ ‘Fillers’
Taylor Swift’s recent makeup at a football game has caught a lot of attention. Some fans loved it, while others were more critical. The star sported a sparkling look with glittery freckles during a Kansas City Chiefs game. The freckle patches, created by beauty brand Fazit, stood out and sparked online reactions.
**Fans Have Mixed Reactions**
Swift was attending the Chiefs’ game against the New Orleans Saints in a plaid dress and black boots, but it was her unique makeup that people noticed. Some fans thought the glitter freckles were too youthful for a woman of her age. One Instagram user questioned, “Is she 15?” while another said, “You can wear that at 65. Age is just a number!” But others agreed with the critics, saying Swift might be too old for this style.
Another user on X said, “She’s in her mid-thirties. Why is she wearing face glitter?” Some also wondered if Swift had undergone cosmetic procedures like Botox or fillers.
**Some Fans Loved the Look**
Despite the criticism, many fans thought Swift looked amazing. One fan wrote, “Love her sparkle face,” while another gushed, “Taylor looks stunningly beautiful.” The co-owner of Fazit, Aliett Buttelman, also praised Swift’s makeup. She shared her excitement on Instagram, saying, “Is life real?! I just stopped sobbing!” She even posted a close-up video of Swift wearing the glitter freckles.
**Jason Kelce Comments on Swift’s Look**
Jason Kelce, the brother of Swift’s boyfriend, also noticed her appearance. During an ESPN broadcast, Kelce mentioned Swift’s makeup, saying, “Hey, look at that now. She’s got the part on right there. That looks good.”
**Not the First Time Swift Has Sparked Reactions**
This isn’t the first time Swift has sparked debate about her style. Earlier in September 2024, she wore a denim corset top with red boots to a Chiefs game, which led to a lot of online discussion. Some fans questioned whether she was pregnant, while others criticized her outfit. However, some fans defended Swift, saying she looked better with a bit of extra weight.
**Swift Enjoyed the Game**
Throughout the game, Swift seemed to have a great time. She sat in Travis Kelce’s luxury suite with his family and was seen cheering passionately for him. After the game, Swift and Kelce left the stadium together, looking happy and in love as they walked hand-in-hand.
