peKINGese

我有一节MKTG课。 星期四，我和两个同学有说考试。 我的女同学也中文学！ 在我汉文课，我们有生词太多， 语法也有一点难。 现在我去吃饭！ 再见！

The Pekingese –quite possibly the most adorable cutest dog alive- originates from China, when a lion begged the Buddha to make him smaller in size so that he could be with his love, a marmoset (a monkey, if you didn’t know). Thus, a Pekingese was born. These dogs were revered in ancient China, often found in temples where they used their tiny bodies to hunt down small demons. They were also bred to be small, about 3-5 lbs in weight, so that they could hide in the imperial court member’s sleeves. Pekingese have lots of different fur colors, from white (considered the most beautiful), to tan, cream, red, brown, black, gray, and sable. Pekingese have changed little in the 2,000+ years they’ve been known to man. Despite their tiny, bowed legs and huge amount of fluffy fur, these dogs are incredibly fast, and can keep up with larger dogs when they want. These dogs really do look like lions, with the fur around their necks and the more closely shaved legs. Surprisingly, when you shave a Pekingese, they look a lot like another Chinese dog, the pug!
