. In this snapshot, Sheila Haddad captures the mischievous side of the stoic lion dogs, Komainu, as they guard the entrance of a majestic Shinto shrine. These adorable yet fierce protectors are known for their mythical powers to ward off evil spirits and bring good fortune to those who pass through. With their vibrant red coats and imposing slats, these lion dogs seem almost too cute to be taken seriously. But don't let their playful demeanor fool you! Beneath those watchful eyes lies an unwavering dedication to safeguarding sacred grounds.
