Guardian Foo Dog Soaps Sandalwood

Originated in China, the sculptures of dogs were guardians of Buddhist temples, sitting on both sides of the entrance. Today, you can find these dogs in front of homes, business, and even government buildings. They were sculpted after the FooChow dogs, the original breed of Chows. Because the dogs resemble lions, the sculptures became guardian lion-dogs in Japan and guardian lions in Korea. Foo means good luck or happiness in Chinese, making these sculptures great gifts. Because they always come in a pair, they are also great for weddings. The female always is with a pup and the male always have a ball. Foo Dogs are handmade and hand crafted in the US, from the highest quality vegetable oil, glycerine, water, moisturizers, lanolin, emulsifiers, and essential oils. No animal testing. 6 oz. 4"h x 1.75"w x 2.5"d
