Although the internet can often be a weird, scary place, it can also be a great place to slip down a rabbit hole chock-full of hilarious and heartwarming pet videos. Speaking of rabbits — our latest obsession? This adorable 7-year-old pup from Ireland named Swiper, who hops around just like a bunny.
While Swiper's prancing around is certainly adorable, the backstory as to why she does it isn't quite as sweet. According to her owner, Sabia Kelly, Swiper was bitten by a bigger dog when she was just 8 weeks old, resulting in brain trauma. But rather than putting Swiper to sleep, Sabia took her in and nursed her back to health. And obviously, her pup's strange way of getting around never bothered her.
Seven years later, Swiper is truly living the good life. "She loves playing outside — she is a wee joy to have in our lives," Sabia told BuzzFeed. "She is so loved in our house — I don't think I've ever seen a dog like her [with] all of her wee quirks."
Scroll through to get a look at how Swiper jumps around the house, and try not to squeal with delight.
