Amazing Worshipper - A dog's prayer



Buddhists clasped their palms to pray for enlightenment, but Conan, a chihuahua appears to have more worldly motivations. Conan....started to pose in prayer like us whenever he wanted treats. The dog, a two year old male with long black hair and a brown collar become a popular attraction at a Japanese temple after learning to imitate the worshippers around him. He sits in front of the altar and looks right up at the statue of the Buddhist deity and when the priest starts chanting and raises his clasped hand, Conan also raises his paws and joins them at the tip of his nose. He become a star when visitors flock to take pictures with him while praying at the temple.
