The Chinese crested dog is a hairless breed of dog. The hairless variety has smooth, soft skin and tufts of hair on the head, tail, and ankles. In China, this toy breed was originally known as the Treasure House Guardian. The breed comes in many colours and the skin of the Hairless can vary from pale pink to almost black, and often spotted. The Chinese Crested doesn’t become too shy around strangers, as even friendliness and non-aggressive personalities have limits.
