Dog finding artificial pink geese (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pekingese

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'dog' is the definition.
(Pekingese is an example)

'artificial pink geese' is the wordplay.
'pink geese' can be anagrammed to 'PEKINGESE'.
However, I am unsure how this is indicated.

'finding' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for pekingese that I've seen before include "Mandarin" , "Snub-nosed lapdog" , "Small dog (from China?)" , "Barker" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
