Dog Biffs It and Gets Right Back Up!

Occurred on November 13, 2025 / Queenstown, New Zealand

Info from Licensor: "At one point she absolutely stacks it. ⁠Full face into the ground, legs everywhere, mud flying.⁠ For a split second she is still (mostly as her body catches up...)⁠ If she were human, this would be the moment we lick our wounds and think about what just happened. ⁠Replay it. ⁠Analyse it. ⁠Feel a bit sorry for ourselves.⁠ But Pepper does what dogs seem to know instinctively.⁠ She pops back up. Gives a little shake. No overthinking. No shame spiral. No “what will everyone think”. ⁠Just up and go again.⁠ Sometimes the hardest part of getting back up is not the fall itself, but the meaning we attach to it.⁠ Credit: bluemercuryleadership"
