Non-notable dog/social media influencer, only unreliable sources are cited and nothing better is available from a search, meaning that this is a GNG failure. Devonian Wombat ( talk) 03:55, 18 September 2022 (UTC)

- Delete Definitely not notable and agree, not sourced by anything reliable. Probably should have been a CSD IMHO. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mr.weedle ( talk • contribs) 04:12, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Almost an A7 since the only claim to significance is 1.4m followers on TikTok--less than 5% of the 50th most followed TikTok account (as of 14 August). — Danre98( talk^ contribs) 05:08, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
- Delete - this and this are two interviews with the dog's owner, this is just quotes from the dog's owner which is barely one step removed from an interview (the same problem exists in that all of the content in the article comes from a non-independent source, the dog's owner, making anything useful in that article non-independent). There is zero independent coverage of this article's subject, thus failing WP:GNG. I don't believe there's a notability criteria specifically for animals but if things like WP:ANYBIO or WP:CREATIVE would apply within the context of the dog being used as a social media subject, the article's subject would fail those as well. The claim to fame is the number of followers which is a big number that doesn't mean anything as far as notability goes, especially when followers can and are routinely bought, making the number of followers ultimately meaningless as a metric of any kind. - Aoidh ( talk) 23:10, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
