About Lady

About Pekingese Dogs

Pekingese are compact, dignified toy dogs with a flat face, abundant coat, and a proud, rolling gait. They were bred as companions for Chinese royalty and retain a regal, confident air. Their lion-like mane and independent personality set them apart from other toy breeds.

Adopting a Pekingese brings a loyal, devoted companion who has a calm, dignified presence in the home. They are affectionate with their chosen people, good watchdogs, and surprisingly stubborn in an endearing way. Their small size makes them excellent apartment companions.
