He just looks like a boxer with floppy ears to me, especially with the white chest.

According to Chinese/Japanese medical [3] face reading, when the white part of the eye, known as the sclera, is visible beneath the iris, it represents physical imbalance in the body and is claimed to be present in alcoholics, drug addicts, and people who over-consume sugar or grain.[4] Conversely, when the upper sclera is visible it is said to be an indication of mental imbalance in people such as psychotics, murderers, and anyone rageful. In either condition, it is believed that these people attract accidents and violence


... who over-consume sugar ... hmm, that tongue makes me wonder if he's had too much sugar

I read a book about sanpaku in the early 70's. I don't remember anything about Chinese/Japanese face reading dogs, but seeing the dog brought back a memory of the book. It was not meant to be an offensive remark. Should I delete it?
