a small curly-haired brown pup balances on one back leg with their other one extending behind them in a lovely little arabesque pose. their front paws reach around in a little circle in front of their body, and they’re smiling with their eyes and their little pink tongue. this is a dance move we’re not even sure we could confidently pull off, but they’re crushing it. in the background, a white fluffy dog lays on their side in a light beige dog bed while wearing a flower-shaped inflatable cone around their neck. they’re looking at their energetic friend with a hint of disdain.
