Chinese Crested Kennel Club Book

Distinctive for its hairlessness, the Chinese Crested is the world's most popular breed of hairless dog, a curious distinction, for certain. Beneath its sometimes purple skin is a rare and delightful canine. Compared to a graceful prancing pony in miniature, the Chinese Crested, with its tufted head, feet and tail, makes a feisty, fun-loving pet for those folk clever enough to tall in love with a near-naked dog. The breed, in actuality, comes in two varieties, with the Powderpuff coated in a soft veil of hair. For the right owners, the Chinese Crested makes a loyal and enthusiastic pet, happily participating in sports, outdoor outings, shows and the like.
