Would love to see such a precious fine. I saw an article and pictures once on the Mayan culture, and most of the chi's that they showed, were the larger deer head type of chi's. They adored the breed. Some literature said that they would kill the dog, so it could rest with it's master. Another article said that they buried the dog alive in the tomb with it's master, and would make a running spring of water and leave tons of food so it could live out it's life in the tomb while guarding it's master until they were united again. There is a lot of mystery about their culture, but they were a highly intelligent culture as well. Guess we will all find out how intelligent they were when Dec 21, 2012 comes around.

I'll take some photos of it later. Gloria
