China's new little emperors By GEOFFREY YORK From Saturday's Globe and Mail E-mail this Article Print this Article Advertisement Beijing — When the inspectors swooped down, Zhang Yiping grabbed her tiny Pekingese and hid it at a friend's place. Her dog Ber Ber was a fugitive from the long arm of the law. It was one of the harsh edicts of Communist rule. The little Pekingese dogs, bred by the Chinese emperors, were banned or strictly limited in their ancestral homeland — along with every other breed of dog. Condemned as a bourgeois luxury and a dangerous source of disease, dogs were rounded up and slaughtered by Maoist zealots. Even in the post-Mao era, they remained outcasts, their existence discouraged by official policy. But this fall, Beijing is allowing the Pekingese to scamper out of hiding. globeandmail.com
