China: Sleepy Husky Struggles to Stay Awake at Dog Party in Chongqing

On January 27, 2026, in Chongqing, located in southwestern China, a video recorded several dogs wearing clothes and gathering together as if attending a small party. Among them, a black-and-white husky stood out for looking extremely tired. The husky lowered its head, nodded repeatedly, and appeared to be dozing off. Its mouth hung slightly open, giving the impression of deep exhaustion rather than excitement. Two other dogs nearby also looked low on energy, standing quietly and showing little movement. None of the dogs displayed the lively behavior usually expected at a party-like gathering.
