About the breed more

Not to recognize a small lump of wool with large sad eyes is quite difficult. Pekingese can be seen from afar. Short paws, massive front part of the trunk (in comparison with the back), hanging ears, flat skull shape and a lot of wool. Pekingese are a breed of dogs that are perfect for families and even older people. Unlike their larger companions, they do not need training, they do not need regular physical activities, and they are not particularly fastidious in eating. But there is a small minus in this breed - dogs are very jealous, and this can lead to the fact that with a child who recently appeared in a family where a Pekingese lives for a long time, they may not get along. But otherwise - they are proud, faithful and devoted friends, constantly sneezing and snoring in a dream.
