This Little Japanese Girl And Her Pet Poodle Will Make Your Day

ADVERTISEMENT

Looking for new friendship goals? Then look no further than Mame and Riku.

Mame is a one-year-old Japanese girl, Riku is a giant poodle, and together they make the cutest companions you’ve ever seen. Mame’s grandmother documents their adorable exploits on Instagram, where the perfect pair have almost 80k followers. She also has two other dogs, Gaku and Qoo, but Mame and Riku seem to be particularly inseparable. Whether they’re sleeping, reading or playing on the trampoline, they seem to do everything together and they’re rarely far from each other’s side. Wish you had a friendship like this? We certainly do!

By the way, did you know that giant poodles, otherwise known as royal poodles, aren’t actually a separate breed of dog? They’re just common marketing terms to refer to very big standard poodles, which can weight more than 60 pounds (27kg).

    The wonderful thing about standard poodles is that they lack all the negative traits that go along with the downsized "miniature" ones. They are just lovable fuzzballs, and they also make great hunting companions/helpers. Its a Plus/Plus here. :D

    My toy poodle mix has no negative traits. Poodles are intelligent, they need stimulus. Lazy owners make hyper barky poodles.

    Mame's grandmother is a gifted artist- using her very photogenic subjects, she artfully engineers these adorable photos to maximum effect. Her home space is artfully constructed as well, if you look into the backgrounds. Entirely pleasing to the eye while simultaneously warming the heart :)

    What would the reaction be if this girl was from South Africa and you titled it - "This little black girl......!!!!!" I hate spotting political correctness instead of just enjoying the cute pictures like I should!...... What's happening to me!

    What would it be?! Something awful would we have? And what political correctness? They simply wrote from where this girl is. I'm seeing so many (too many) over sensitive people. I think nobody is really offended by this. Just some of you don't allow the rest of us to enjoy in little things.
