-THE BITCOIN BORACAY ISLAND LIFE-

The Xoloitzcuintli, or Xolo, is an ancient dog breed that originated in present-day Mexico. With a history spanning over 3,000 years, it is one of the oldest and rarest breeds in the world. Xolos were highly valued by ancient civilizations such as the Aztecs, Toltecs, and Maya.

They share genetic traits with their pre-Columbian ancestors and are among the closest living relatives of ancient canines that roamed the earth thousands of years ago. These dogs held deep spiritual significance, often believed to guide souls to the afterlife.

Xolos exist in both hairless and coated varieties and are admired for their intelligence, loyalty, and distinct appearance. Today, they are recognized as Mexico’s national dog, symbolizing cultural heritage and tradition.

I was thinking more like the jackal-like creatures, possibly the sphinx if you accept that the head may have been different. It just reminded me of them, like the form and shape didn't seem quite as foreign/alien as expected. (Not 'alien' as in extraterrestial)
