Celebrity Pets File First 'Mandatory Fun' Contract Lawsuits; One Dog Sues Over Being Forced To Do 12 TikToks Per Day
LOS ANGELES — They called it a fluke. A stroke of viral luck. Then came the inevitable: it was time to sign the contract.
For the first time in internet history, a golden retriever filed a formal legal complaint against his owner for “excessive social media engagement mandates,” claiming the 12 TikTok videos per day requirement violated his “Right to Be a Dog in His Own Home.” The lawsuit was filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court by Mr. Barnaby Whiskers, a 4-year-old mixed-breed whose owner is none other than A-list producer J.K. “The Vlogger” Reynolds.
