The Japanese Chin comes from the land of Chrysanthemums and
sunshine like their short-faced prototypes the King Charles
Spaniel and Pekingese. They can trace their descent far into a
dim past and share the distinction of being Court favorites in
their own country for centuries. The Japanese people like to
breed very small dogs appropriate for carrying in the big
sleeves of their flowing costumes. The Japanese Chin was also
called a sleeve or chin dog. The Japanese sometimes held these
little dogs under their chin. The Japanese Chin is such a
sweetie of a breed. It continues to increase in popularity.
The exact origin of the Japanese Chin is unfortunately a point
of which there is no authentic information. Some historians
believe the Japanese Chin were developed in the Northern part of
China; others say they are descendants of the short-faced
spaniels of Tibet. Peking has also been mentioned as the birth
place of the Japanese Chin.
Wherever the beginnings of the Japanese Chin it is one fact for
certain they were highly prized by the elite of their sunny
island for centuries.
During the time when nobles and their
fighting retainers ruled Japan each great house of Japan owned
its own particular strain. All the Japanese Chin strains were
carefully guarded in purity and no intermingling with other
strains were allowed. Noble ladies were in charge of taking care
of these tiny creatures. The Noble ladies also greatly cherished
and petted the little sweetie pie of a Japanese Chin.
In their days of royalty living they lived in bamboo cages. Oh
how wonderful it must have been in those days to have been a
part of the lives of these sweet little creatures. I think I
would have enjoyed very much myself being a Noble lady in charge
of taking care of the Japanese Chin!
All good things seem to come to an end, however, as did this
lifestyle for the Japanese Chin. The feudal nobles were
dethroned and their little Japanese Chin that had been so
carefully guarded for such a long time were scattered through
the length and breadth of their native land. Now we find so many
separate and distinct types of Japanese Chin in Japan.
Since the
Japanese Chin is essentially a dainty toy breed, the smaller
they are the better, provided type and character are never lost
sight of.
When breeding the Japanese Chin, stamina is a quality in which
one probably should aim for that can usually come from a larger
sire. It seems that throughout the history of breeding Japanese
Chin it has been noted that a small matron has one or two large
puppies, while a larger one (6 to 8 lbs) has a more numerous
family of smaller ones (and small is the goal when breeding
Japanese Chin) and being bred from sturdy parents the puppies
will most likely be sturdy (even these small ones).
When Japanese Chin puppies are first born they need a lot of
warmth and should live in a room of an even temperature of at
least 70 degrees.
As puppies are able to run about they should never
be allowed out on damp or cold days. They should be encouraged
to play out in the sun on warm days. As they grow older they
should become accustomed to a cooler room and more outdoor
exercise.
The little Oriental dogs seem to love the sunshine and
it is so amusing to watch their mad dashes out the door to
relish the warmth of the sunlight. When the Japanese Chin is
thoroughly happy they can be the wildest-spirited little
creature you could ever imagine.
