It never fails – there’s always that one friend who manages to ruin a perfectly good group photo. Whether they’re being obnoxious or just have bad luck and timing, you can always count on them to look like the odd one out.

Yoko Kikuchi is an Ashtanga yoga instructor living in Hong Kong with her 4 Shiba Inus: Kikko, Sasha, Momo, and Hina.

Aren’t they gorgeous?

Kikuchi’s Instagram account has been popular for a few years since the dogs are so photogenic.

But recently, people have noticed that Hina, the white Shiba Inu, has a goofy streak when it comes to group photos. In fact, she can be counted on to look hilarious in about half of all the posted pics.

Check out 25 of our favorite outtakes from this funny furball and her sisters:

1. It’s all about the eyes

Plenty of us have had our eyes closed in a photo before, but Hina is taking it to the next level.

It’s like she’s trying to squeeze them shut just to foil the photographer.

2. Sleepy puppy

Back in her puppy days, Hina couldn’t always be bothered to stay awake for photos.

Luckily, everyone else was willing to strike a pose.

3. Almost perfect

Darn, they nearly nailed this one!

We’ve definitely been the one making this face in a photo before.

4. Whodunnit?

We’re pretty sure we know who chewed that computer cord.

And she doesn’t look very remorseful!

5. Mid-yawn

Apparently, Hina needed a bit more sleep before her photoshoot that day.

She looks like she’s trying to hold it together though!

6. Goofball

Ok, now she’s just trying to mess up the photo, right?

She must know she’s going to be the center of attention if she makes a silly face.

7. Double trouble

Hina’s not the only one who can foil a photo.

Everyone has their moments and some photos include more than one delightfully dorky dog pose.

8. Work-around

Sometimes you can’t wait for everyone to be ready for the photo.

In Hina’s case, it might just be better to make her the focal point.

9. Call of the wild

We know which one is the wild sister in this group!

There’s one in every family.

10. If I can’t see you, you can’t see me

Who do you think is responsible for the mystery shoe?

We think Hina looks a little guiltier than the others.

11. Am I doing it right?

What a rebel.

Maybe she was throwing a temper tantrum that day.

She is the baby of the family after all.

12. Big smiles

Hey, maybe she really is trying and that’s the biggest smile she’s got!

She probably has no idea she looks like such a stinker.

13. Howl at the moon

Ok, we take it back. She knows exactly what she’s doing.

Apparently Hina loves trolling mom and dad when they take photos.

14. Tongues out

We think Kikuchi was going for the panting smile, not the stick-your-tongue-out look.

Hina just didn’t get the message.

15. Shine brightly

Is the sun in her eyes or is she just trying to goof off yet again?

We wonder if Hina knows she’s going viral for these moments.

16. So close

Yet so far away.

Hina seems to have separated herself from the pack in more ways than one.

17. The happiest dog

We just can’t stop cracking up at this pup.

That’s some personality!

18. Not in the mood

Apparently, Hina cannot be forced into being in a pleasant mood, even for a moment.

Unless she’s just sneezing.

19. Deliberate sabotage

Ok, we’re convinced Hina knows precisely what she’s doing in these photos.

And yet, we’re still compelled to look at every last outtake.

20. Almost had it

Ooh, so close.

It looks like Hina got a snarl in there at the last second.

21. Tongue-tied

How did she even get her tongue to look like it was blowing in the wind?

Does she practice in front of a mirror?

22. Tongue trolling

We wonder if Hina’s sisters know what she’s up to when the shutter goes off.

Do they see what a goofball she is?

23. Work it

Well, if she insists on being the center of attention, you might as well run with it sometimes.

She seems to be enjoying her accessory.

24. Go your own way

As a puppy, she was especially clueless about the camera.

Either her skills have not improved or she just enjoys the laughs she no doubt gets during photo shoots.

25. Perfection

While Hina is clearly a little stinker, sometimes all four dogs really nail the perfect shot.

Just look at these beauties!
