TikTok's Most Famous Dog Is An Upper Manhattan Resident

UPPER MANHATTAN, NY — TikTok's most famous dog is an Upper Manhattan resident, according to a recent feature by the New York Times.

The ritual is simple. Jonathan Graziano, 30, snuggles up to his 13-year-old pug, Noodle, gives him a few pets, and picks him up momentarily from his comfy dog bed.

If Noodle stays standing after being held up, it's a "bones day," if Noodle goes crashing back down to his bed, it's a "no bones day." Millions of people online are using the outcome to see what kind of day they will have depending on Noodle's ability to stay up.

A "bones day" means it will be a positive 24-hours and you should go out and attack the day, while a "no bones" day means you should relax and focus on self care.

Graziano's TikTok account where he shows off the ritual has 4.1 million followers, and his videos have been viewed a staggering 41.5 million times.

The videos' popularity has exploded in recent weeks, prompting a feature from the New York Times titled: "Bones or No Bones? A Dog on TikTok Is Setting Today’s Mood."

The article mentions that Graziano gave the interview to the Times "while walking Noodle in Upper Manhattan."

Patch was able to confirm that Graziano and Noodle do live uptown.
