A collection of idioms about dogs

"Flies Ying Gougou", from Tang Han Yu's "Send to the poor": "The morning regrets its deeds, the evening has returned, the fly camps the dogs, drives away and returns." The analogy is to go around camping like a fly, and beg for a living like a dog. It is most appropriate to describe those who are unscrupulous in pursuing fame and fortune regardless of shame.
Although the dog has a good reputation for loyalty, it does not take various legends of its "righteous dog" when used in idioms. For example, "Dog relies on human power", which is a metaphor for slaves and running dogs relying on the power of their masters to act. "Dog-blood sprinkler", described the curse very badly.

It is a term used to describe the extremely despicable conduct of a person. It comes from "Xunzi? Honor and Disgrace".

This is a humble speech for the master or others. With the passage of time, this term is rarely used nowadays. "The raising of dogs and horses" comes from "The Analects of Confucius? For politics": "Today's filial person means being able to raise. As for dogs and horses, all can be raised. Disrespectful, why is it different?"

Documents of Filial Piety": "The emperor gave the prince brother, the dog's teeth are in the system. This so-called rock sect is also the world's strongest." So the term "hounds stone" was derived from it, referring to the feudal dynasty divided into clan children to Consolidate the rule.
▲Jie Inu Biao Yao
This idiom comes from Han? Zou Yang's "Book from Prison". Jie is the legendary tyrant of the Xia Dynasty, and Yao is the legendary sage in ancient times; Jie’s dog barking at Yao is the righteousness of his own, but it is also a metaphor for the bad guy’s running dog attacking good people or serving his master.
▲The Dog of the Funeral
This idiom comes from "Historical Records? The Family of Confucius":
Confucius justified Zheng, and lost his disciple. Confucius became independent of Guo Dongmen. Zheng or Wei Zi Gong said: "There are people in the east gate, whose scorpion resembles Yao, and their items are like Gao pottery, and their shoulders are produced, but they are less than three inches below Yu, and they are tired like a mourning dog."
The original meaning of the idiom is the dog of the funeral. The funeral is flat, and it is a metaphor for the poor. Later generations read "mourning" as the sound of going away, thinking that a homeless dog had nowhere to run and was panicked.
▲ Shu Dog Barking Day
This idiom comes from Tang Liu Zongyuan’s "Answer to Wei Zhongli Lun Shi Dao Shu": "Servants go to the south of Wenyong Shu, and there is little rain in constant rain, and the dog will bark when you say it." This is a rare and strange idiom.

Every dynasty, Diao Chan sits in full, and the proverb of the time is:'The mink is not enough, the dog will continue.'" This is a satirical feudal society. The language of knighthood is too indiscriminate, and later generations also use bad words to continue good, resulting in disproportionate proportions.
▲ Bark-shaped bark
This idiom comes from Han? Wang Fu's "On the Latent?": "The proverb says:'A dog barks, a hundred dogs bark.' Also." Later generations used "bark-shaped bark" or "bark-shadow bark" as a metaphor for unclear authenticity and blindly echoed.
