The chow chow panda does not exist. It's just a dog dyed to resemble the endangered mammal, China's national emblem. Yet the fact that this is a "trick" does not demoralize the thousands of buyers, who they are equally crazy about "panda dogs".
The owner of a pet shop in Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan province, Hsin Ch'en, said he could not keep up with the demand for Chow chow dogs dyed like pandas.
"I have perfected the technique and now it is spreading throughout the country - he says -. With a little care and color it's easy to turn a chow into a panda dog, in about two hours. The treatment will remain for about six weeks, then the owners will have to come back for some touch-ups ”.
A make-up, assures the shopkeeper, without chemicals or mistreatment (can we trust you?). And quite expensive, although buyers “don't mind paying extra, they like the fact that people turn around and tell their friends, 'I have a panda dog,' 'continues Chen.
Before saying “how cute”, stop and reflect on the need to apply this technique which is not better defined only for our aesthetic taste. Also because the Chow Chows are wonderful of them. Our advice? Forget about coloring animal fur treatments: if you are looking for a four-legged companion and are sure to take on this responsibility, take a look in our kennels and you will find specimens gorgeous even without makeup. This is why adopting a dog will be good for your life.
