PEKINGESE
The Pekingese is a well-balanced, compact dog of Chinese origin. Its image is lion-like, implying courage, dignity, boldness and self-esteem rather than daintiness or delicacy. With its heavy front and lighter hindquarters, it is surprisingly heavy for its size. The topskull is massive, broad and flat, when combined with the wide set eyes, cheekbones and broad lower jaw, forms the correctly shaped face. The gait is unhurried and dignified, with a slight roll over the shoulders. Its temperament is of directness, independence and individuality, combined with dignity, intelligence and self-importance make for a good natured and affectionate companion.
