Publisher's Synopsis
The compact, medium-sized Chinese Shar-Pei is an amalgam of odd physical traits: a broad "hippopotamus" muzzle; a blue-black tongue; small, sunken eyes with a scowling expression; tiny triangular ears; abundant folds of loose skin about the head, neck, and shoulders; the tapered high-set tail-all blanketed by a harsh, sandpapery coat. (A literal translation of Shar-Pei: "sand skin.")Shar-Pei are strong, regal, independent guardians famous for intelligence and loyalty. They are suspicious of strangers and other dogs. Shar-Pei are serene dogs, but they will meet a perceived threat with tenacity and vigor. Early training and socialization are essential-a dominant adult Shar-Pei without them is a serious problem waiting to happen.Get your copy today by scrolling up and clicking Buy Now to get your copy today
