Chinese Crested
Chinese
Crested Description: The Chinese Crested is a fine-boned, elegant and
graceful dog who makes a loving companion, playful and entertaining. The Chinese
Crested adores food and will leap about in anticipation of a tiny bite. There
are two types, the Hairless with hair only on the head, tail and feet and the
Powderpuff who is completely covered with hair. A friendly family dog, not
aggressive towards children or other animals. They do not make good kennel dogs,
because they love the companionship of a home. The Chinese Crested does best as
a one dog family and sometimes does not like to be over handled by strangers.
Odorless and hairless they are a very low maintenance breed.

History: The Chinese
Crested is said to have began in the thirteenth century in China. From there
they found their way into Europe and South America through the trade routes on
Chinese sailing ships. Chinese Crested is thought to have been the mating of the
Mexican Hairless Dog with a Chihuahua. Their registration in the UK was in 1881
but they did not make an appearance in the US until 1960.
