What's the significance of the phrase "adding people without dogs" in rural areas?

At this point, Shan Nong also knows why there is a saying that "people are added without dogs".

1, feudal superstition, dogs are spiritual and can see filthy things, and fierce black dogs can ward off evil spirits. People should be added to the family, not dogs. People and dogs can only be the same. Everyone used to think that the birth of a child was the reincarnation of ghosts and gods. Keeping a dog at home is likely to bump into ghosts and gods, so that ghosts and gods will not come to their home. This will increase despair. This concept is deeply rooted in the hearts of the older generation, but this statement rarely appears in an increasingly scientific society.

2, afraid of disturbing pregnant women, dogs like to pounce on people, there are pregnant women at home, in case the dog is too excited, leading to pregnant women.

What if I fall? Or a dog barking that scares pregnant women is also a terrible thing. After a woman is pregnant, her physical and mental endurance will be weakened, and it is easy to be in a bad mood due to external factors.

3. Bacteria and parasites hidden in dogs, such as Toxoplasma gondii. When pregnant women and dogs live under the same roof, they may be infected even if they are not in direct contact with dogs. Lead to decreased resistance of pregnant women, fetal malformation and so on. Bacteria and parasites in dogs still have incubation periods. Most doctors will advise pregnant families to stay away from animals such as cats and dogs six months in advance.
