Mythical Dog with a Lingzhi sprig in its mouth.It is very difficult to pindown a certain Dynasty for Animal type Jade especially.Take this cute mythical dog but the final criteria used to determine as Yuan Dynasty was the grade of Nephrite.In Yuan there was a paucity of good grade nephrite and cemented by several examples of this species in several other reference Jade books decide on Yuan or early Ming as the second last image shows an auction result of similar Nephrite.Incidently this is classified as dog rather than deer;because of the paws as shown in the underneath image.
