"The 1981 standing Dog has a very different personality. Erect and at attention, he reminds us of those fierce temple dogs of the Far East who stand guard at the entrances to sacred precincts. His mouth is slightly open, baring his teeth, and his short, pointed ears stand straight up to hear all sounds. There is a close parallel between this dog and the pre-Columbian animal (especially dog) sculpture by the Indians of the Colima region of western Mexico, especially from the first century B.C. to the first century A.D...The many polychromed terra-cotta sculptures of dogs that have been found there were meant to be buried with the dead. Archaeologists believe that they represented...Faithful companions in the next world...They are, to modern eyes, ingenuous and charming. Their forms are often rounded, and they look well fed—like prehistoric Boteros."
Edward Sullivan, Botero Sculpture, New York 1986, p. 129
