Miscellaneous Notes
  • The Chinese Foo Dog is also known as Chinese Celestial Dog, Chinese Choo Hunting Dog, Chinese Dragon Dog, Chinese Lung-Kou, Chinese Temple Forest Dog, Chinese T'ien Kou, and Sacred Dog of Sinkiang.
  • The Chinese Foo Dog comes in three size varieties: standard, miniature and toy.
  • While the Foo is considered a relative of the Chow Chow (and perhaps to North European spitzes as well), information on the modern Chow Chow might be of dubious or only very general value for someone interested in the Foo Dog..
