Yes I'm sure about it..because it was explained to me by someone who knows a lot about these temples and documented them!

Besides...Doesn't it look like a Dog than a Lion? Anyway..I saw these carvings everywhere in the premises! It is said that the Loku Hamuduruwo of the temple ordered to make these carvings..I think there were lot of thieves those days especially those Grave Robbers!
