The Chinese Shar Pei is an ancient breed and were bred as guard dogs for the protection of the royal family. The wrinkly loose skin is so in a dog fight the other animal only gets a bite of his wrinkle and his internal organs are protected. They are believed to be as ancient as 200 BC. The breed is from Southern China, near Canton. The are from a line of miniature chocolate dilute, cream, solid black, and green eyed isabella. The puppies are purebred AKC and can be AKC listed by the new owner.
