Foo Dogs... A Room's Best Friend

Called the "Lion of Buddha", foo dogs have a very sacred meaning within the Chinese culture. These "dogs" are said to be the protectors of sacred buildings and the defenders of the law, guarding against all evil spirits.

Whether standing tall at the entrance to a home, or placed as an accessory in the interior, foo dogs make a bold statement. You can find mine guarding my home in my entry hall.

Can you spot the foo dogs?
