Are you looking specifically for breeders located in China? Or, do you
just want to see a living Foo dog?

Yes he does. I´m interested in locating the dog inside China. The
Canandian and US American breeders are of no interest to me.

I know where to buy this dog in China, and I have one! Tell me what
details you want!

I am not a google answer researcher, and I am not familiar with this
system, How can I help you?

I guess your goo dog is called Tibetan Mastiff somewhere else. Here is
a short introduction to Tibetan Mastiff.

The Mastiff is a feral dog but larger than ordinary dogs. It's good at
fight ,and can help hunting .The Tibetan Mastiff is the best of
Mastiff. As the story goes ,close ten dogs together in one courtyard
and make them worry to each other till 9 of them is dead and the left
one will be the best breed.After many many years, the Tibetan Mastiff
come into being in this way.

In legend ,the Living Buddha rides on Mastiff and the coming of them
makes people free from aliment, makes the ice thawed and makes the
ground resuscitated. Once the Mastiff was mentioned in Tibetan
altiplano, all people admires it very much for its being rided by the
Living Buddha who was dispatched from heaven. People regards it as a
supernatural dog and the pastorals's protector.
