Pekingese
The Pekingese is a breed of toy dog, originating in China. Another breed, the Shih Tzu, has its English name derived from the same source as this breed’s Chinese name which translates to “lion dog”.
Pekingese dogs were bred for centuries to be the cherished companions of the imperial family of China. Today they’re still cherished family companions and show dogs who greet everyone they meet with dignity and grace. The Pekingese, a compact toy companion of regal bearing and a distinctive rolling gait, is one of several breeds created for the ruling classes of ancient China. These are sophisticated dogs of undying loyalty and many subtle delights.

The Peke is an adaptable dog who can live with just about anybody, including apartment dwellers and novice pet parents. However, they have a tendency to bark, which neighbors might not be too thrilled about. They also tend to stick to one human caretaker most of all. Children may injure them during rough play, so they’re best suited to homes with teens and adults. If you can meet the breed’s needs, you’ll have a loving, loyal companion who won’t want to leave your side!
