The Japanese Chin is a small, well balanced, lively, aristocratic toy dog with a distinctive Oriental expression. It is a dainty little spaniel with a short, broad face, and a soft, feathered coat. It loves to cavort and play. Formerly called the Japanese Spaniel its name was changed to the Japanese Chin in 1977.
It is a gentle and affectionate breed; it is meticulously clean and very easy to housebreak. If you enjoy an affectionate, playful lapdog then a Japanese Chin would make an excellent companion.
Temperamento
The Japanese Chin is a pleasant, loving, charming, lively, and happy animal. It is affectionate and extremely devoted to its master. This breed loves everyone. It makes an excellent companion to children, but small children must be taught to be nice and gentle with the dog.
This breed is more obedient than most toy breeds. It is mild-mannered, elegant, yet playful, sensitive, agile, dainty and clean. It is good with other dogs and pets. The Japanese Chin has a mind of its own and likes to be the center of attention. It is not a barker. It is reserved with strangers; it makes a good watchdog.
