Uni is a 9-month-old Shiba Inu living in Tokyo, Japan, and he has a lot to smile about. His owner loves him, there are plenty of toys in their home, and they lead active lives. But can you guess what makes Uni the happiest? Food!
That's right, the puppy can't stop smiling whenever there's something delicious in front of him; even if the smoothie or a bowl of pasta on the table belongs to his human, it looks like the mere sight of food puts the widest grin on the little buddy's face.

"Uni is beautiful not only because he's always smiling," his owner told Bored Panda. "His short little legs have white paws, making him look as if he's wearing socks!"
Scrolling through Uni's photos, it becomes clear that he's pretty chill in most environments. "He is very well behaved, and knows that he needs to be quieter when we go out," his owner added. "When he's in public, he's calm, doesn't bark, or run around which makes hanging a stress-free and enjoyable experience."
When it comes to food, the puppy's owner said he's not picky at all; Uni loves everything, especially potato sticks.
However, if you too want to give your dog potatoes, American Kennel Club warns that it should be baked or boiled, with nothing added to it. "Potatoes fried in oil, such as french fries or potato chips, or potatoes with butter or salt added to them are not healthy for dogs. If your canine companion has diabetes, he should not be given potatoes because they can cause blood sugar spikes," the organization wrote.
Uni, however, clearly can and does enjoy eating them.

I smile when I see food, too. Uni: keep on smiling!
Uni is awesome! ❤️
He's adorable but I never understand animals "going viral"... its a cute dog... most dogs are cute.... I'm not against it.. i just don't get it.
I feel like the point is not "getting it" actually. It's just something dumb and pointless but makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside when so much else on the internet is straight up soul-sucking garbage.
Jeez, Christina, who spit in your cornflakes this morning? There's nothing wrong with a little escapism now and then - it's actually healthy. I have no idea if you're trying to start a "conversation" here but you honestly come off as a miserably bitter with nothing better to do than attack silly things like this.
actually, Christina, people DO care about the so called ugly stuff. Does not mean we have to show your as* that we do... :D

.... and to many "good" people it is all they care about - their own feelings; they do not want to be bothered by all that "ugly stuff". If they're happy nothing else matters to them and it shows.
I'm all for it - cute pix of dogs, cats or any animal are just simply heartwarming to look at. They can lift a person's mood in seconds. Doesn't work for everyone of course. 😃
Christina, don't criticize everyone when they haven't said anything wrong or offensive
I agree, the doggo really is cute :)

Many, many other animals are cute too, but they do not have any reason to "smile", they suffer immensely in the hands of cruel, evil, b*****l sub-human murderers. Wouldn't you want to help them, Carrie? Wouldn't you be "all for it"?? Get in touch with your conscience, do not avoid pix of cruelty, pain and suffering, for the sake of animals...and ours.

What I don't get is why the heinous, unconscionable cruelty to animals never "go viral" and why all those "good" people do not speak out against these abhorrent, evil acts of unspeakable cruelty to animals, especially when it effects human lives, human existence. The link between animal cruelty and violence against humans is undeniable.
