Interesting Facts: Growlithe resemble the Shishi or koma-inu - mythical creatures that share traits with lions, tigers, and dogs. They are often honored in statue form; found in pairs in front of Chinese or Japanese households. They are the protectors and guardians of the home. Growlite have a powerful sense of smell to identify the emotions of others; upon getting a scent, it will not forget it, no matter what. It uses this advanced sense of smell to determine the emotions of other living things.

It looks great!
But you have put the wrong number on it, Growlithe is number 58 not 57. I'm not trying to be a know-it-all, I'm just trying to help :P

I was born in the year of the tiger! FYI, I think that Persian or Glameow would've worked better for the tiger year... just to say.
