More Japanese 日本語

Another example of Japanese used in advertising in Taiwan, from a pet store in Fengyuan:


At the top of the sign the word "Inuya" is written in roman letters, followed by the same word いぬや in the hiragana script. "Inuya" literally translates as "dog house", but would be used to refer to a store selling dogs, and/or canine-related items.
