内容简介

Clad in its leonine garb, the Pekingese pays homage to the lion whose appearance it resembles. This quaint Chinese toy dog possesses a characteristic large head, adorned with a profuse mane and a long straight coat over its small well-balanced body. Revered for its fearless and loyal disposition, the Pekingese was the jealously guarded possession of the Royal Palace, and today has countless admirers throughout the world. This book provides the much-needed factual information about the Pekingese and its ancestry, character and standard, as well as puppy selection, feeding, training, preventative health care and showing. The new owner will welcome advice about preparing for the pup’s arrival, housebreaking and preventing puppy problems. In addition to a comprehensive authoritative text, this book presents over 135 photographs in full color, which prove to be as informative as they are attractive. Helpful hints and important information are highlighted to provide easy access to everything the reader needs to know about life with a Pekingese from puppyhood to the senior years.
