My Japanese Spitz, Yuki, has this quirky habit of jumping in the air whenever he sees a squirrel. One time, he miscalculated and landed right in a pile of leaves, which sent them flying everywhere. It was like he was trying to fly, and I couldn’t stop laughing.

Last week, my Spitz, Mochi, decided that the best way to greet me was by rolling in the mud. When I came home, he was a complete mess, but the way he pranced around proudly was too funny to be mad. He’s got this wild personality that just cracks me up.

My Japanese Spitz once tried to catch a butterfly and ended up tumbling into a flowerbed, which made a huge mess.
