| |  | | | | | | Pekingese GiftsThe Pekingese originated in China, and is one of the oldest known breeds of dogs. A study of ancient remains suggests that it, along with other breeds such as the Japanese Chin, Shih Tzu and longhaired Chihuahua may have descended from what is known as the Gobi Kitchen Midden Dog. The Pekingese was revered by the Chinese as symbolic of the Foo Dog, which was capable of driving away spirits, and for its resemblance to the lion.

| (continued) ...to Britain, where they formed the foundation stock of today’s breed.
A Pekingese stands 6-9 inches high and weighs 8-10 lbs. Dogs under six pounds are referred to as “sleeve Pekingese”, the kind which was popular in China. Those weighing 6-8 lbs are referred to as “minis”, however neither of those is an official breed designation. All colors are accepted, with or without a black face mask.
Sometimes braver than is good for them, the Pekingese has a lion temper and heart to match. Along with that goes a very independent nature that makes them stubborn and manipulative of their owners. They can be very picky about what they eat, and easily pick up the stress of their owners and use it to their advantage. Leery of strangers, the Pekingese can become so passionately attached to their owner that they react aggressively to other family members. Not suggested for small children unable to understand this part of their nature. © DogDecor.com |
