The Shar-Pei is very special and very clean. In life, the Shar-Pei has a small appetite, does not like exercise, and stays in its own kennel most of the time, so it is very suitable for breeding in big cities or high-rise apartments. Overall, it is very easy and simple to raise a Shar-Pei, and it is a very popular toy dog or guard dog.
The Shar-Pei is an ancient and unique Chinese dog breed, generally believed to have a history of more than 2,000 years. In the past, it was mostly used for guarding or as a fighting dog, and even hunting wild boars. In 1968, the Hong Kong Kennel Club recognized and registered this breed, and now Japan, South Korea, Canada, the United Kingdom and some other European countries have also recognized this breed. However, due to the genetic modification of the Shar-Pei in the 1960s and 1970s, there are currently 3 types of Shar-Pei with different appearances, but the name is still the same, resulting in different standards and confusion in the breed. At present, the situation of Shar-Pei in its place of origin and throughout the country is not optimistic. The number of the entire Shar-Pei breed is extremely small and is facing a survival crisis of extinction.
