![]() He is doing much better now, he is alert and looking healthy, his eyes are bright and shinny and he is very affectionate, but just to be sure we are taking him to the vet today. Which also arises my next question…if he was dyed, how could they dye so close to his eyes and nose and not leave any permenant damage? As I said he is very young maybe 6 wks, so I would think harsh dyes would blind or aggrivate his skin. If these stripes are indeed dye, they are a very powerful dyes because they did not come off when I bathed him. He also had a mild case of fleas, so I gave him a flea bath. When my husband first brought him home he was dehydrated and very hungry and slept a lot. He is very young, not old enough to be away from the mother I think, but we are taking very good care of him. Afew days ago was my daughters 4th birthday and my husband bought her one of these puppies. I am currently Living in Donguang, it is just outside of Shenzen. ![]() Pretty weird indeed! I would love to get to the bottom of this mystery, because if this dog was bred in China and then moved to the United States, several days must have elapsed in the least, and there is a chance that the stripes could be real and not dyed. I remember trying to search for “chinese peasant dog” on google to no avail and just now I remembered the incident (don’t ask why my brain remembers these things) and googled “looking for striped dog china” and I happened upon this website. It was definitely a puppy and it is stunning how much it looks EXACTLY like these puppies. The woman told me it was a “chinese peasant dog” and then grabbed the dog and walked away in a very dismissive manner. I was amazed, obviously, and went right up to the woman and started asking questions and attempted to pet the dog. Hello Everyone! A few years ago, I was in New Orleans for my brothers graduation from Tulane University (it must have been about 2006), when I saw a woman with a dog JUST LIKE THIS at our hotel. Im wondering what breeds you would combine to acheive this over sucssive generations. I really dont think this is a dye job if it is I need them to dye my hair this thoroughly. I used to breed and show bull terriers in the USA and have seen many dogs and dye jobs on dogs (pink poodles). Could they be dying this same strain of dog? It would seem that somebody would dye the wrong breed and there would be variation in the dog’s body shape. Furthermore the dog is the same breed shown in these photos. Unless it was dyed that day (she had the dog several wks) id think there would be roots or faded portions within the stripes. The stripes went all the way down to the skin. The stripes had the same texture as the rest of the fur. I held the dog for about 15 mins if its dye i would think the dye would come off on my clothes. I know that particular puppy got a good home. I am currently working in Xiamen China and saw one of these puppys that was fortunate enough to be purchased for 50 RMB = $7 us dollars by a woman who adored the puppy. ![]()
