#japanesechin #dogbreeds #proscons The miniature ornamental Japanese chin looks very funny. This appearance is the result of the work of ancient scientists, who fulfilled the requirements of Japanese emperors: to create a beautiful mood for them with the help of a dog and to form an additional harmony in the palace area. This wish was fulfilled so successfully that even centuries later, the Japanese hin still pleases its owners with its amusing appearance and its exemplary behavior. There is a lot of information about the Japanese chin in various historical sources. According to legends, they symbolized the lions, the guards of Buddha himself, who guarded cult buildings, residences, and tombs of emperors. In the 12th century in Japan, they were revered as sacred animals, and lived indoors next to the emperor and his entourage. Literary works were dedicated to these dogs, their images could be found in the form of statuettes, on pictures, and vases in temples and dwellings. The smaller the dog was, the more elite it was considered, and secular ladies found it easier to carry their pet in their kimono sleeves. In China, the Japanese Chin had its own servants, but naturally, only a nobleman could own one. This breed was so valued that if one stole such a dog, one could lose his life, and breeding it was a state secret. _____________________ Please, subscribe to 1minanimals: www.youtube.com/@minanimals
