Puppers wear red dresses on Chinese New Year’s
Chinese New Year is a special occasion for Chinese families to worship their ancestors and celebrate New Year’s together at home.
It’s traditional to don the red outfits when visiting their families to exchange presents, and give kids Ang Paos, which are red envelopes with cash inside. However, for some families who do not have children, Ang Pao can also be given to their pets instead.
Here’s the story of puppers who wore red outfits on Chinese New Year’s and were gifted food as Ang Pao.
