In Aztec mythology, Xolos were divinely created to serve as companions to humans in life and guides for souls in the afterlife. Found in the homes of Aztec nobles and priests, they were believed to ward off evil spirits and bring good fortune. 🐕👼
Despite facing a population decline during the Spanish conquest due to the introduction of European dog breeds and changing culture, Xolos have persevered. They continue to hold significance particularly within remote villages and indigenous communities.
Today, a resurgence in interest and recognition for the Xolo as a national treasure in Mexico has occurred. Cherished for their historical and cultural significance, these loyal and affectionate dogs, known for their unique hairless or coated varieties and elegant features, hold a special place in the nation’s heart. 🏆🐕
