The Smiling Dog That Stole The Internet's Heart
You might know me from those funny meme videos... yes, that's really me! I'm a Jack Russell Terrier with a smile that just won't quit and a lucky clover on my tail. My real name is Maya, but everyone calls me Aifolou!

Behind every viral meme is a real story. Here's mine! (Psst... my real name is Maya)
The world knows me as Aifolou, but my real name is Maya. My family also calls me Lucky because I have a special clover-shaped mark on my tail! I was born in Kyiv, Ukraine, and now I live in beautiful Barcelona, Spain with my human, Iryna.
My signature smile is what everyone remembers most about me! People say it brightens their day, and honestly, that makes my tail wag like crazy.
When I'm not accidentally becoming an internet sensation, I love napping with my teddy bear, judging humans from comfortable positions, and convincing everyone I haven't been fed (I have).
