VIEWING SUPPORT FORUM THREAD: Datong Head Lumps
REPLY: (by Fawn) May 1 2018 2:03pm
Just curious if the Datong's were supposed to have the two bumps protruding from their head..

Yes they are supposed to have that as it's a part of the breed.

Intro
The Datong breed of China dates back something like 4000 years and they are native to the Datong River basin in the northern Qinghai Province. This breed has been known for centuries for its physical connections to the Dragon Horse, a strain with exceptional powers of endurance.

Origins
The Dragon Horse appeared under the reign of King Mu and have been immortalized in ancient Chinese art. They were said to have 2 small, bony projections on their forehead that resembled horns. The Datong horse can be born with theses same bony projections, although little faith is put into legends of horned horses these days. Today it is considered a flaw and animals born with them are not bred.

There are two types of Datong horses, heavy & light riding type. The lighter type tends to have a drier head, longer limbs and less hair than it’s heavier counterpart.

The Moyle is the same way. They also have “horns” in real life.
