The internet is full of weird and wonderful animals, and quite frankly, it's the best thing about living in such a connected world! When a furry friend decides to do something cute, we now have the ability to share it with, well, just about everyone!
Case in point, this dog, which has gained thousands of followers online because of her very unique way of posing for a photo.
Now, as any fan of a group photo will know, it's of the utmost importance to do something a little unique to make sure that you stand out, but Kiko the dog has got it down to a fine art and snapping back her head in a way that would give most pet owners a heart attack.
In an interview with Bored Panda, owner Ashleigh Macpherson said: "We have Mika, who is 3 years old. The other ginger dog is Tofu. She is Mika’s daughter, and 1 and a half years old. The last ginger is Kiko, who is 9 months old, and the one who often turns her head backward.
"She is also Mika’s daughter. They are crazy little dogs who are sassy and very cat-like. They are very talkative and have so much to say. They are small dogs with huge personalities."
While the dogs are trained to sit for photographs, because Kiko is so young, she's taken do doing her own thing and "ruining" the photographs in the best way possible.
Meanwhile, Cora the two-legged dog has learned to bounce around:"Kiko was a Covid puppy and was raised during the lockdown," Macpherson explained. "She was a singleton puppy, who had no littermates. So her company that she grew up with was the cats. Maybe that's why she's such a weird character."
The dogs aren't just related by blood, they are a family in the most literal sense too, and Macpherson said: "Since Finnish spitz are high-energy dogs, they need that exercise, or they'll be running mad at home."
The trio also have daily obedience training to ensure that they keep their paws in line.
"When I go to work, Kiko comes with me while the other dogs stay at home," Macpherson said. "They all usually sleep until I’m back from work, that’s when we go for our 2nd walk/hike."
