"Mother and daughter and their Tibetan mastiff pose for us infront of the Songzanlin monastery -- paid 4 kwai for the pleasure. While the mom and child wore dazzling costumes, it was the mastiff that really charmed me. I read in the papers that this breed of dog sells for lots of Chinese yuan. At a fair somewhere in China, one mastiff was priced at 7 million yuan, another was 'priceless' (not for sale)."
