What’s good and bad about the Chin?

Pros:

• Gentle and playful personality
• Loves to curl up on your lap
• Must have affection – this is a dog that enjoys following his owner from room to room
• Ideal for apartment living and senior owners

Cons:

• Too fragile for roughhousing
• Must own a vacuum cleaner; he’s a spaniel and he sheds
• Regular brushing and combing is necessary
• Poor watchdog; this is a lapdog

Good example of a Chin.
