Someone give Pekingeses some love before I burn this drat place down. :colbert:

My dog growing up was an awesome male Pekingese named Mort. My friends were more convinced he was a Jim Henson puppet rather than a dog. I wasn't yippy and was content to set under your feet and get his belly scratched while you read/watched TV.

He unfortunately got staph from a routine surgery when he was ten and had to be euthanized. My (who kept the dog while I was at college) doesn't understand why I don't sleep at her house. Even six years later it always feels like Mort is there and it's unsettling. I miss the guy.

Also, Pekingese dogs are like their masters and not yappy dicks. If you are chill your Pekingese will be the same. And he was a healthy 20 pound dog. I need to find a picture or Mr. Mort.

ADBOT LOVES YOU

Please correct me if I'm wrong (likely) but aren't Pekes and Pugs really closely related? My pug would work but her recall was poo poo and she'd often shoot my family the "snotty teenager look" when we wanted her to do something and didn't have a treat on hand.

Granted, it's really tough to consider them in the same class as huskies and Akitas...

Pugs are very close to the Pekingese in the great dog tree of ancestry.

Here is a bonus picture of a 19th century Pekingese or "Chinese Happa Dog." It is so incredibly downsy. Wanna meet that dog!

OK that's a stuffed dog and not a living one right? 'Cuz if that's a living dog . . . :smith:


Anyway, I thought I'd heard that these types of breeds tend to be more fastidious than the average dog, is that true? Like, I heard that they wash themselves sometimes. Y'know, just to add to the "ways primitives are like cats" list.

That's a picture from the 19th century. :) How can you all not see that cute idiot dog for what he is!? Nothing to be afraid of! He looks like he would consider all things very important.

..They didn't have colour photography in the 19th century ;). The dog is stuffed. And looks like Frankie so idk what Super is talking about :rolleyes:

Well gently caress me I never looked at it that closely. I thought it was just badly color-ized or whatever it's called.
