Official standard
FCI 288
The official breed standard of the Chinese Crested Dog from the Federation Cynologique Internationale (FCI).
Our opinion about the standard
The standard is an ideal that every breeder strives for. The paradox is that the ideal does not exist and all dogs are different. Otherwise, there would be no point in breeding. We do not clone dogs, they are born by crossing two individuals. Our task as a kennel is to get as close to the ideal as possible, and most importantly, to produce healthy offspring. The breed is confirmed by experts at exhibitions and breeding inspections. A dog is not allowed to breed without a breeding certificate. Producers must have official documents that are confirmed at exhibitions, breeding inspections and registered in the RKF stating that this dog can have offspring, i.e. is allowed to breed. The standard of “mini Chinese Crested Dog” does not exist in nature, it is a cull, a defect in the breed, which will not be considered by any self-respecting expert at any decent exhibition. A dog at the withers less than 23 cm and weighing 2-2.5 kg is a veterinarian’s dream. There are no hairless dogs in this breed! Bald is the one who has lost his hair and gone bald, the Chinese Crested Dog is born naked, i.e. partially without hair. Do not offend the babies, they do not deserve it!

Disadvantages/Defects:
Any departure from the foregoing points should be considered a fault and the seriousness with which the fault should be regarded should be in exact proportion to its degree and its effect upon the health and welfare of the dog.
