How King Charles Survived Against All Odds

King Charles — also known as Changmao (长毛), the dog who became famous around the world for his remarkable presence among the dogs of Hebei — is still here. After months away from his story, we return to see what has been happening around Changmao and the large dog community he lives with in Pingquan, Chengde, Hebei, China. From his interactions with the other dogs to the continuing videos from the original creator, Changmao's story has continued long after his viral fame began to fade. There have also been rumors online claiming that King Charles had died. But what does the more recent evidence actually show? In this video, we look beyond the viral clips and revisit Changmao's life, the dogs around him, the changes within his community, and what his story looks like today. Because sometimes, an internet legend doesn't disappear. We simply stop looking.
