Photographer Yasuto captured the friendship between his grandmother and her puppy during different seasons. So the backdrop is spectacularly colourful and differences between every shot.

The photographer stated on Twitter that he missed never having the chance to take photos of his grandfather. Which is why he made sure to snap a lot of pics of his granny! Incredibly wholesome, don’t you agree?

For those of you who have always wanted to visit Japan and led starry-eyed at the view of cherry buds in the pics( just like I did ), you can find the forecast right here. At the time of writing, the forecast for sakura to bloom in Tokyo was between the 18 th and the 26 th of March.

And for those of you who couldn’t do your eyes off the Shiba Inu( just like me, again ), you’re probably wondering what they’re like to raise.

According to Shiba Shake( who, as their list indicates, are madly in love with these bird-dogs ), Shiba Inu are very independent and very clean. In fact, they’re more akin to cattos than doggos!

They’re easy to toilet set. They’re likewise excellent guard dogs. They’re as elegant as elves. And as energetic as hobbits. Or five-year-olds who ate too much candy. What’s more, Shiba Inu are incredibly bright, learn authorities quickly, and have a larger than life personality! If this dog-cat hybrid bangs too perfect, you’re right. Shiba Inu can be very stubborn, a tad crafty, and can be prone to fits of drama.
