Pochi Tama was a pet show in Japan a few years ago where people would send in videos of their talented pet. In 2004, one family sent in a video of their little dog call Shinoki. Shinoki was not allowed on the table and soon he developed a skill that most other dogs can’t do. Who would expect that a dog could go on two legs with the other two in the air on a table. Great upper body strength and one super talented dog Shinoki.

Playgirl Q featured returning cast member Sawa Tamaki and a new cast of beautiful young model/actresses.
