The Shar-Pei’s neck is medium in length, very full, and evenly set into the shoulders.  Famous for it’s wrinkled skin, there are moderate to heavy folds of loose skin on the neck and abundant dewlap surrounding the neck and the throat.

The topline is located slightly behind the highest part of the back at the base of the neck and has a slight dip.  The broad and deep chest of the Shar-Pei extends to the elbow and rises slightly under the loin while the back is short and close-coupled.

Shar-Pei’s have a flat croup with the base of the tail set extremely high compared to that of other breeds.  A high-set tail is a commendable feature of the Shar-Pei as low set tails are faulted.  The tail is thick and has a round base.  It tapers off to a fine point and curls over the back.

After becoming a communist nation, the People’s Republic of China was nearly eliminated after high taxes and no-breeding laws were established throughout the country.  Dogs were no longer seen in the cities and only few remained in rural areas.  Only few Shar-Pei were bred in Hong Kong and in Taiwan.
The Hong Kong Kennel Club did not recognize the Shar-Pei until 1968 when it established a dog registry and registered the breed.  This organization still registers the breed as well as other Kennel Clubs throughout Taiwan, Japan, Korea, and other organizations throughout Canada, Great Britain, and Europe.

The Chinese Shar-Pei was discovered over 2000 years ago and was kept by peasant farmers throughout the southern areas of China.  They were used not only for hunting wild boar but also to protect valuable livestock.  Their intelligence and strength made them a universal asset to any farm.  Shar Pei served as great guard dogs to their masters and helped alarm thieves and those who were always at war with farmers.

Jean Yu, an educated Orientalist of Washington, D. C., and researcher of ancient Chinese manuscripts persists that Shar-Pei were originally bred for hunting mongoose.  However, because of the immense strength and vigorous appearance, they were eventually used for fighting-dog purposes.  The village of Dah Let, in Southern China’s Kwangtung Province, was known as a gambler’s haven in ancient history. Dog fights became a popular event and the Shar-Pei became an even more popular contestant.  Breeders throughout Dah Let attempted to improve the breed’s fighting ability and set out to perfect some of the main characteristics known to modern Shar-pei.  The bristly coat was developed to create a repugnant taste in an opponent’s mouth.  The loose wrinkled skin helped when twisting and turning in attempt to grasp his antagonist and also made it difficult for the opponent to grip the flesh of the Shar-Pei.  The canine’s teeth created a hook-like hold on the contender helping to tear the flesh of his challenger.  Before any battle, the dogs were always given stimulating drugs and wine to heighten aggressiveness.

Chinese Shar-Pei are very protective of their home and family and are very possessive and territorial.  Since they were bred as guard dogs in ancient history, these traits have carried on throughout the years, making them excellent protection, especially around strangers.  While it is pleasing to have a guard dog to protect the home, it can also be dangerous if overprotective.  Here are some suggestions to keep your Chinese Shar-Pei from becoming too protective: Read more

Treats – Shar-Pei are known for their extreme dislike of water.  However, it is possible for the entire bathing routine to be trained.  Before filling the bathing area with water, reward your dog for getting into the bathing area and standing quietly with a treat.  When the water is on, familiarize them with the sound of the water as well as the blow dryer before getting them completely wet.  Reward them with treats for having good behavior during their bath time.

The exercise requirements of the Shar-Pei are moderate and if provided with a large yard they will usually get enough exercise on the own.  However, a daily walk is pertinent both for their enjoyment as well as keeping them in shape physically.  Walking also stimulates their sense of sight and sense of smell, increasing their mental stimulants.  It is important to remember that Shar-Pei are especially sensitive to heat so walks and daily exercise should be done during the cooler times of the day.  Shade and fresh water should be available at all times during exercise as to not overheat your companion.

• The ears of the Chinese Shar-Pei need special cleaning attention before bathing.  Some Shar-Pei tend to collect more dirt and wax in their ears than others which needs to be removed.
• Use a rubber brush in the bath to loosen and remove shedding hair.
• A light hand massage is a good way to remove any additional shedding hair.
• Be especially careful to dry the folds of the skin on the Chinese Shar-Pei.  Use your hands to open the folded skin and dry with moderate heat.
• Once the dog is dry, try using a light coat of grooming powder or baby powder.  This can keep the folds dry from damp skin irritation.  Be sure to use only a light coat!
• After bathing and drying, try using a light gloss spray for a shiny coat!

Bathing your dog is a necessity but doing it at a do-it-yourself dog washing facility may be questionable.  Though they are thought to be a great convenience for pet owners, there have been many cases in which folliculitis or furunculosis has been present in dogs after bathing or grooming.  This skin infection is mainly seen along the neck and back and is due to trauma caused by contaminated shampoo and high-pressure spray heads.  This infection causes very painful skin irritation, sores, fever, behavior changes, and in some cases could be life threatening!   Many do-it-yourself dog washing facilities use bulk shampoo containers which can easily become contaminated from the excessive use from the same container.
