Oor die ras
The Japanese Chin was a favourite of the Japanese aristocracy for centuries, though its ancestors probably came from China. European traders brought it to the West, and it became better known after Japan opened to trade in the nineteenth century.
The Chin is a calm, dignified dog that likes comfort and company. It is often described as cat-like, washing its face with its paws and choosing a high perch to watch the room. It needs little exercise, is generally quiet, and suits gentle households well, but it must be kept cool and handled with care.
