狡狗 [cunning hound / jiao beast] (The upper character is pronounced with the fanqie jiāo + mǎo. The Shanhaijing says: "There is a beast shaped like a dog, with leopard patterns and horns like an ox, named jiǎo; its cry is like the barking of a dog." In the lands of the Xiongnu there are jiǎo dogs, with huge mouths and black bodies. Du's commentary on the Zuozhuan says: "Jiǎo means crafty." The Guangya says: "Vigorous." The Shuowen says: "A young dog. It takes the dog radical and jiāo as phonetic.")
