The Foo Dogs, lions, are the symbol of good fortune, luck and wisdom. Guardians such as these are placed at the entrance of a home or other building to guard the occupants from evil and harmful spirits. Foo Dogs are the symbols of valor and energy – indispensable sources of wisdom. The lions are usually depicted in pairs. When used as statuary the pair would consist of a male leaning his paw upon an embroidered ball, representing supremacy over the world, and a female restraining a playful cub, representing nurturing the young.
