The appearance of a Shiba Inu in a Twitter photo made netizens exclaim that it looked like it had been beheaded.
There are many funny pictures or memes of furry children on the Internet, and there is a photo on the Japanese Twitter community that makes it difficult to take your eyes away. In the picture, you can only see the head of a Shiba Inu "floating" on the road. The body and tail are completely invisible, making people think it is a supernatural photo or photoshopped.
This photo was actually taken by the owner more than two years ago. The protagonist is the family's Shiba Inu Tsubasa. The photo became popular on the Internet at the time, with the post receiving more than 300,000 likes and more than 500 comments. Many netizens were frightened by Tsubasa's bodyless appearance at first sight, saying that the picture looked too much like a dog being "decapitated", and they even thought it was post-processed by the owner.

Recently, some media interviewed Tsubasa's owner and the current situation of the dog. The owner explained that this seemingly scary photo was entirely due to the shooting angle. In fact, it was Tsubasa who dug his head into the grass at that time. He wanted to remove the dog's head. I took the picture with the cobwebs on it, but I didn't expect that because the dog was sitting, I patted its head from top to bottom to cover its body, so it looked like only one head was floating in the air.
The owner explained that the photo was a magical effect of the shooting angle, not a supernatural photo or post-production.
Tsubasa has also appeared in a lot of news and TV because of this photo, and he is now more than four years old. His owner still often shares his daily life pictures on Twitter, so that friends who like him can follow him at any time.
