Japanese Chin: What's Good About 'Em? What's Bad About 'Em?

Teaches your dog to listen to you, to pay attention to you, and to do whatever you ask him to do.
. . .
Small children cannot help being clumsy, and that a child meant well is little solace to a Japanese Chin puppy who has been accidentally stepped on, sat on, rolled on, squeezed, or dropped onto the patio.
. . .
If you work all day, this is not the breed for you.
. . .
If you have small children, I do not recommend Japanese Chin puppies, no matter how well-meaning the child.
. . .
Owning a toy breed means constant supervision and surveillance of what's going on around your small dog.
. . .
Though he does love to play in the yard, he doesn't need much more exercise than that.

Mouthy dogs are more likely to use their mouths to hold or "herd" their human family members, and they need training to learn that it's fine to gnaw on chew toys, but not on people.
. . .
Dogs are individuals, just like people, and they don't all need the same amount of food.
. . .
Personality The personality of the Japanese Chin is a true indicator of the depth that these dogs possess.
. . .
The neck of the Japanese Chin is very delicate and it is strongly suggested that you use a harness instead of a collar when walking him.
