Divine Dogs

Divine Dogs are twin wolf shikigami that can be summoned by the Ten Shadows Technique of the Zenin Family.

Description
The Divine Dogs are a pair of twin wolves. One hound is white while the other is black, and both have three dots on their forehead of the opposite color.

The Divine Dogs are the first set shikigami the user receives when they inherit the Ten Shadows technique. They are summoned by forming the shadow puppet of a dog's head. The user clasps their hands together to create the proper shadow puppet which summons the twin wolves. They can also choose to summon a single dog rather than both.

Usage
Megumi uses Divine Dogs to defeat weaker curses with their offensive abilities. They're also useful for tracking scents, able to warn Megumi of incoming curses or lead him to specific targets.

The white dog was killed by a Finger Bearer. The black dog can still be summoned alone by this technique. Later on, while Megumi is fighting against Hanami, all the powers of the deceased white dog is passed on to its black twin to become a more powerful form which is strong enough to damage to special grade cursed spirits.

Trivia

 * The Black and White Divine Dogs are reference to the Cadejo from Central American mythology.
