Trivia: The dog is known as Hayataro. According to legend, a mountain dog gave birth to three puppies at the temple where the monk took care of both mother and the children. The mother decided to return to the wilds with its children but left one at the temple to be a guardian as a show of gratitude. One day a village child was attacked by a wild animal and the dog rushed to his aid. The dog was then named "Hayatarō", which roughly means "Fast and Brave".
