Foster parents for the world's cutest dog and even the rarest once

This day we had a visit of the world's cutest Shar-Pei puppy about 17 weeks old. We were lucky to look after Dagmar for a whole day while its owner help a cancer-stricken friend to the hospital. The dog "Dagmar" love to come at us and feel immediately at home. It is the most lovable charming little friend who loves to be cuddled.
Shar-pei originates from China and has a history dating back 2,000 years. Although its exact origin is unknown, statues, that it comes from a place in southern China, Tibet or Dah-Lei.
They were also known as the tomb dogs, related to discoveries of ancient tombs with 2,000-year-old statues that look like them. Since China became a communist country, was subject to tax on dogs, which was a luxury that was basically outside the ordinary farmer's possibilities. In 1947, increased taxes, and breeding was banned. It led to shar-pei was an endangered breed, and it came in the Guinness Book of Records in 1978 as the world's rarest dog.
And our friend even has three of these dogs:-)
