<h1>With the growing of the dog population, more and more breeds are introduced from abroad, most of the pet dogs are "foreign dogs", on the contrary, our domestic dog breeds are not so sought after, today to introduce to you a very peculiar looking domestic breed, has won the "ugliest dog selection contest" in the United States repeatedly - Chinese crown hair dog. </h1>
The Chinese crested dog is one of the few hairless dog breeds in the world, and its name comes from the fact that the crown hair on the top of the head resembles the hats of Qing officials in Chinese history. Petite, colorful skin, clean, hairless, friendly, is a type of toy dog that is very suitable for pets.
Looking at the picture alone, do you find the appearance of the crowned dog unacceptable?
The distinctive appearance has made the crested dog unpopular
People who raise small pet dogs generally pursue the three attributes of cuteness, well-behaved, and sweet looks, such as Bomei, VIP, Bixiong, etc., all of which are doll-like looks, in line with the aesthetics of most people, and are also the choice of most people.
Although some people focus on the chihuahua's pocket, Yorkshire's sharp mouth, the sausage's short legs, the schnauzer's old man's face... But in general, it is only a relatively niche aesthetic, and the crowned hair dog is a really unpopular dog breed, looking at the whole city, there are few people.
Why? Is it just because of the appearance of the crested dog?
Ugly, but expensive
Due to the unpopularity, there are not many kennels for the sale of crowned dogs in China, and the price is more expensive than that of common pet dogs, and if you add the appearance and pedigree, the price is naturally more doubled.
Crested dogs are not completely hairless
Although we call it a hairless dog, in fact, its head, ears, limbs, and tail are covered with fluffy long hairs, and these hairs will appear very flowing when running, and it is precisely because of these small but just right hairs that the crowned hair dog has a unique temperament.
Prone to skin problems
Due to too much bare skin, crowned dogs are extremely prone to skin loss during play, and attention should be paid to the placement of dangerous items at home during the breeding process.
In addition, unlike other dogs, it can only dissipate heat through the tongue, its skin has sweat glands, which can sweat directly through the skin, so it should often wipe the skin secretions and apply skin oil for care.
Good for keeping in the apartment
Due to its size, the amount of exercise required is not large, coupled with the excellent qualities of no hair loss, no body odor, full of emotions, and rarely chewing on items due to developmental problems, it is an ideal breed for companion dogs.
In each litter of newly bred crowned dogs, there are always a few with hair, so it is not that as long as there is hair on the whole body, it is not a crowned dog, different looks have created a diversified dog world, and each breed has a unique charm.
