Description

Chinese Imperial Dog's facial expression is sweet, wide-eyed and innocent. They are compact, well boned and muscled dogs with substance appropriate to their size.

Temperament

The purpose of the Chinese Imperial Dog is that of a personal and family pet and companion. They are sturdy, happy, playful little dogs with an affectionate and loving temperament that is ideal for their role in life. They are intelligent, out-going, trusting and energetic dogs that will also be content to sit quietly on a lap for as long as it is allowed. They are vivacious and cooperative with a streak of independence. The Chinese Imperial Dog is playful and energetic. They need daily pack walks to burn mental and physical energy. Make sure you are this dog's firm, confident, consistent pack leader to avoid Small Dog Syndrome, human induced behavior problems. Always remember, dogs are canines, not humans. Be sure to meet their natural instincts as animals.

Height, Weight

Height: Under 9 inches (23 cm.)
Weight: Under 9 pounds (4.1 kg.)

Health Problems

Hypoglycemia due to their small size. No major health problems if breed correctly.

Living Conditions

The Chinese Imperial Dog is a true companion. It does well in any indoor home and is the perfect size for an apartment.
Exercise
Although it is tempting to carry these dainty creatures about; these are active little dogs, who need a daily walk.  Play will take care of a lot of their exercise needs, however, as with all breeds, play will not fulfill their primal instinct to walk. Dogs who do not get to go on daily walks are more likely to display a wide array of behavior problems. They will also enjoy a good romp in a safe open area off lead, such as a large fenced in yard. Don't think that just because he is small he should be confined to a small space.

Life Expectancy

About 10-15 years

The coat should be trimmed once a month to every six weeks. If the coat is kept according to the standard: occasional bathing, ear care and regular clipping.
