Fa cosa d’un mes en un caf\u00e8 a la zona de Shida vaig veure un anunci d’un \u00abcarnaval de gossos\u00bb que es celebraria a principis de Gener. Com que m’agraden aquesta mena de tonteries (i vaig poder conv\u00e8ncer a l’Anna) vam anar-hi a treure el cap.<\/p>\n

Quan es camina per Taipei no \u00e9s raro trobar-se animals (sobretot gossos) vestits amb alguna mena de roba, xubasquero, botes, etc. El mateix \u00e9s cert per altres ciutats asi\u00e0tiques, sobretot al Jap\u00f3. \u00c9s un exemple de la cultura asi\u00e0tica de fer coses divertides pel simple fet de que s\u00f3n divertides (encara que a la vegada siguin rid\u00edcules). En altres parts del m\u00f3n la gent no s’atraveix a expressar els seus gustos d’aquesta manera… aqu\u00ed no tenen cap problema. (nota: suposo que queda clar que a Taiwan no es mengen els gossos)<\/p>\n

A la mena de carnaval hi havia diversos shows (incl\u00f2s un concurs de bellesa), competicions d’agility (for\u00e7a pat\u00e8tiques), botigues<\/a>, estudis de fotos especialitzats en animals and ONGs<\/a> per a la rehabilitaci\u00f3 i l’adopci\u00f3 dels gossos del carrer a Taiwan. Feu un cop d’ull!

Tamb\u00e9 he donat una volta per internet i us he fet una tria del \u00abmillor\u00bb

Tamb\u00e9 podeu mirar la galeria que m’ha passat l’Eli<\/a> <\/p>\n

Per acabar, menci\u00f3 especial al Gos Panda<\/b>. A Internet diuen que el primer gos panda va ser al Jap\u00f3 quan Columbo va ser abandonat al no ser gaire maco. Va tenir la sort de ser recollit per Kensuke Hirakawaa (un estilista japon\u00e8s) que el va convertir en el primer gos panda.

I ja tenim una nova moda al Jap\u00f3 i altres bandes d’\u00c0sia…

\nA month ago or so, in a cafe in the Shida night-market are I spotted an advert about a \u00abpets carnival\u00bb to be celebrated on early January. As I enjoy freak stuff (and I convinced Anna to join) we paid a visit to the exhibition.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Walking around Taipei is not unusual to see pets (specially dogs) wearing some clothes, raincoats, shoes, etc. This is also true for other parts of Asia, specially Japan. This is a demonstration of the Asian culture that enjoy to do funny things just because these things are funny (even if it can be somehow ridiculous at the same time). In other parts of the world people would be ashamed to express themselves by dressing their pets, not in here. (note: they do not eat dogs in Taiwan!)<\/p>\n

The exhibition featured various shows (including beauty contest), agility competitions, shops<\/a>, photo studios for pets and NGOs<\/a> for the rehabilitation and re-homing of Taiwan’s stray dogs. Take a look!<\/p>\n

I also browsed around internet to find some additional examples. Some of them are internet hits!

You can also check the gallery that Eli sent me<\/a> <\/p>\n

Although we did not see any dog like that, it deserves a special mention: Panda Dog<\/b>. According to sources on the internet, the origin of Panda dogs is in Japan when Columbo was abondoned due to his poor looks. Luckily for him, he was adopted by Kensuke Hirakawaa (a Japanese beautician) who used a special dye to turn the dog into a panda bear.

And a new trend was started in Japan and other parts of Asia…
