Who doesn't love to see photos of pets doing what they do best — being themselves!

Companion animals are the sweetest creatures, and have unique ways of expressing themselves, whether it be in play, involved in an activity with their people, at rest — or getting into trouble.

Stories make their rounds each week about mischievous pets who, out of curiosity or habit, get themselves into hot water.

Back in January, I talked about one curious dog, Rebel, who got himself into quite the predicament.

Surely, you have at least one or two stories to tell about your furry housemates naughty behavior — and perhaps a photo to back it up?

Why not share them both?

In continuing our ongoing Friday Pet Photos feature, with the theme this week of "mischievous pets," we invite you to email a photo of your companion animal to ppsa2mi@gmail.com, any time during the week.

Participating in this fun feature is easy — simply include your companion animal's name, age and city or township of residence in your email. Be sure that your photos are 600 pixels wide and in .jpg format.

Don't forget to include a little back story to help illustrate the mischief.

We put the week's photos into a slideshow, publish it and promote it each Friday here in the Pets section. Check out past slideshows here.
