When life gives you hurdles, jump. When that hurdle is a hedge, jump higher. When you get stuck ... deal with it.
This Shiba Inu appears to have gotten stuck in a hedge in Japan, and he's certainly dealing with it in the most calm way possible. Twitter user @yamamochi223 snapped a photo of the eerily chilled-out dog, whose head and front legs protrude from the bush.

The Aug. 17 tweet that contained the photos has since been deleted, but Japanese news aggregator Rocket News kept a screenshot for posterity.
