"Long Hair", a white Chinese pastoral dog from Chengde, Hebei, China, became an Internet sensation in May 2025 because of a video that shocked a group of dogs. He was dubbed "King Charles" or "Chinese Dog King" by foreign netizens. The story takes place in a stray dog shelter. In the video, Long Hair walks into the chaotic dog pack with a calm pace. The barking and fighting Dobermans, German Shepherds and other large dogs suddenly become quiet, and some dogs even kneel down or expose their bellies to show their submission. Long Hair calmed the dispute by lightly pressing the "perpetrator" with one claw, showing a strong aura.
This seemingly inconspicuous native dog was born in a shelter and was bullied by the former "Dog King" since childhood, but after eight months of training, he finally defeated his opponent and became the new leader. Its owner Hu Zi revealed that Long Hair is not a Xiasi dog, but a northern native dog. He is smart and gentle. He usually doesn't like to fight, but he can naturally maintain the order of the dog pack. The video has been played over 300 million times on platforms such as YouTube and TikTok, triggering a global imitation craze, spawning T-shirts, virtual dogecoins and other peripherals, and even some people writing biographies about it.
The legend of the long-haired dog not only shows the charm of Chinese native dogs, but also allows people to re-examine the wisdom and power behind these "ordinary" lives. |
