shiba inu

We've all got that one friend, or know a friend, that messes up each squad photo.

The images below of an adorable squad of Shiba Inus, all provided by Yoko on Instagram, feature 4 pups in harmony. Err.. almost. Three of the Shiba Inus seem to be in sync with each other and how to look in each photo. The white Shiba Inu doesn't seem to get any of the memos, and never really syncs up with the squad. Thus, resulting in "ruining" each group photo.

And the air-quotes around "ruining" are totally necessary because honestly, we believe the white Shiba Inu is MAKING each photo. This adorable white Shiba Inu is the star in each photo and had us continuously smiling from ear to ear. 

And we bet you anything, you'll be feeling the same. 

Meet one of the happiest Shiba Inu's we've ever come across -- Lili! Lili lives in Japan with her owner and is living her absolute best life! 

Don't believe us? You should check out Lil's Instagram feed! So much color and fun to be had by Lili constantly. We can just see how happy this Shiba Inu really is and it makes us sport a big goofy grin ourselves. 

Let the happiness wash over you! 

The bond we have with our pets are so deep, it's difficult to put into words how much we love them and how strong those bonds we've created are.

There is someone who managed to capture that love and bond, in a series of stunning and heartwarming pics.

That photographer is Yasuto. A Japan-based photographer who captured the pure love and deep connection between this woman and her Shiba Inu. The images go beyond love, each snapshot is a work of art. 

These images were featured on Yasuto's Twitter page.

Shiba inu are known for their cheeky antics such as frolicking in flowers, lying on the ground in the middle of a walk or just running their own sweet potato business in Hokkaido. These dogs are always up to something and their cheeky little faces just add to the charm. But Chester is different. Rather than the sassy expressions we often see on Shiba inu dogs, this pupper has a permanently grumpy face and will glare at practically anything- Birthdays, Innocent Bystanders and even a poor pizza. 

What's better than well-done cosplay? Animals cosplaying! This Shiba Inu dressed up as a majority of the Overwatch characters is truly delightful! 

Which cosplay do you think is best? 

Everyone's favorite cat, Tardar Sauce, who sadly passed away earlier this year at the young age of 7, had a unique and permanent "grumpy" expression, which was caused by an underbite and feline dwarfism. 

 This Shiba Inu, named Chester, is the dog version of the famous Grumpy Cat, and after you see the following photos -- you'll think so too! 

Japanese online retailer, Felissimo, is known for its fondness for making products themed after funny internal images and especially shiba inu. One of their latest items is a bath towel set based on viral photos of shiba inu peeping out from a hole in the wall. Shower time is private, but maybe you'll make an exception for this good shiba inus waiting for you.

Meet the beautiful and photogenic Hachi, a Shiba Inu and owners' Masayo Ishizuki favorite subject to photograph! And after seeing these adorable pictures of Hachi, you'll understand why! You can follow Hachi on Instagram! If you don't leave here with a smile on your face from seeing these pics, you might need some more doggie goodness in your life.
