{{Nihongo|'''Dog Ninja'''|犬忍者|Inu Ninja}} is the 23rd minigame in ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'' and the 29th minigame in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''. The player plays as [[Dog Ninja (Character)|a dog that slices things such as vegetables, tires, and frying pans.]]
The objects come into the screen from either side and are sliced when they reach the middle. When a good slice is done, the object is split in half.
The player plays as the eponymous [[Dog Ninja!]], who slices things such as vegetables, tires, and cast-iron skillets. The objects come into the screen from either left or right, or both sides, and must be sliced at the precise moment.
During practice, [[Dog Ninja!]] can be seen inside a room. In the real game, he is seen outside, with [[Mister Eagle]] appearing at the start with a sign saying "Cut everything!"
