Just when you think you’ve seen it all, there’s an adorable dog who’s also a shopkeeper.
That’s right. Apparently, this Shiba Inu “manages” a sweet potato stand in Japan, as evidenced by this tweet.
とある旦那からのLINE 「わんわんが焼き芋売ってる」 犬の、焼き芋屋さん、だと⋯？？#可愛すぎ
The 3-year-old pooch named Ken-kun is always front and center when someone approaches "his" stand.
So, customers reportedly open the white box and choose a sweet potato of their choice, then place the money into a small hole.
There’s a wonderful little sign by the stand that reads: “Because I’m a dog, I can’t give you change.” Hey, it’s all in the small print.
As you can see, it’s all based on the honor system.
So, to recap: The cost of a roasted sweet potato? 100 yen (about $1). Meeting a dog who’s a shopkeeper.
We love an entrepreneurial good boy!
