    The Chinese Shar Pei a regal and rugged farm dog. The breed has surely seen many variations in it's two thousand year history. Starting from the humble farm dog to the post Communist China fighting dogs, the breed has a storied history.

Simon was moody, stand offish but the most loyal dog to each member of our family. My parents have had other dogs but none like Simon. We miss him so much.

  • @h.chappelle9395
    @h.chappelle9395 3 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    I was used to cats, my Shar pei dogs are like cat-dogs, very neat. They are not low maintenance, ear cleaning--and it is different for the miniature, her ear drum is closer to the top, nail trimming--their quick can sometimes grow close to the tip of the nail so one has to be verycareful not to hit the quick, and they are also a strong hunting breed in addition to guard dogs and companion dogs, so they are not that great on a leash, some may be okay. I will mention a few things because when I first owned dogs, my Shar pei dogs, I wish I knew ahead of time what I am mentioning, such as what are the best leashes to use since I tried several:
    1. For cleaning the home, use a strong vacuum with a HEPA filter on their beddings, floors and carpets, this will help the dogs from getting itchy from microscopic annoyances like mites. Then you do not have to have your dog on tough anti-itch meds like Apoquel. Washing their beddings in vinegar helps get rid of mites.
    2. Be careful about the dog food. Shar pei dogs are not supposed to eat too much cruciferous veggies like broccoli, bok choi, kale, because it can negatively affect their uptake of iodine, and then they can get sick. Instead of rice for fiber in their food, I use Chia seeds which are low carbs and have omegas. Rice can turn into sugar helping to cause fungus. Don't use sugary treats, use giblets as treats like livers from beef or chickens, chicken kidneys, etc. I ended up cooking my dogs' food and adding dog vitamin supplements. Add a small amount of apple cider vinegar (not a different type of vinegar) to their food. I always look up food choices, such as I find that clover sprouts and sunflower sprouts are okay for dogs. My dogs love raw, unsalted cashews as treats.
    3. My dogs are not the greatest on walks, but love to go on walks. They have a very strong hunting instinct, and I live in the countryside--they see a rabbit, they will run in front of a car to get it, jump off a cliff running after something. They are totally peaceful and obedient until they see game. Anyway, the double bungee leashes on the marketplace are the best with them, this gives them the opportunity to explore, but still controlling as the bungee dog leashes have several handles along the leash, and you can attach several of them for a longer leash. I use padded dog harnesses instead of a collar.
    4. Shar pei dogs need to go to the bathroom at least three times a day, not twice a day that many dogs seem to be able to handle. So, one should remember to let them out in the yard at least three times a day--morning, afternoon, evening.
    5. Sleeping helps Shar pei dogs stay healthy. Shar pei dogs do not bark much unless they were taught to do that; whatever, barking is good for dog's lungs. They may not bark much naturally since they may be hunting in that fashion for centuries. So, let it be.
    6. Do not enclose them in a small area, or shut doors in their faces, as they are very sensitive. I let my dogs roam all over the house, and sleep where they want. They have doggie beds but sometimes they sleep on the couch or on my bed. I put a drop of Himalayan cedar oil on my hand and rub my hands, then rub that along their back hair, it helps them not have ticks and fleas.
    7. My dogs usually have many vaccines, like the Lyme Disease vaccine.
    8. Shar pei dogs usually like to play a lot, love learning something new with treats, love affection.
    9. It is hot in the summer here even in the countryside, and Shar pei dogs generally do not like very hot weather, so air conditioning and fans where they usually rest may be a good idea. Shar pei dogs love to travel, but one has to be careful about the car temperature, and not leaving them in a car when it is warm outside, even if it is 70 F degrees, the sun can overheat the car very fast inside.
    10. Make sure to keep up-to-date with the grooming of their ears and nails. If you have no experience with that, VET technicians usually can help show you how to do that properly.
    May this be helpful. Best of luck.

    She's protective, loyal and so smart! It would take only 1 training session to teach her a trick.
    Also she hates getting wet to the point that she will walk around or jump over a wet patch on the ground when going for walks.
    My dog loves the entire family but is most attached to me. She always has to be next to or touching me.
    If anyone is thinking about getting a sharpei, get a mixed one. You get the looks and benefits of one without the health problems!

She looked after the little dogs like they were a herd, one cat would wake her up for a belly rub and she would. In hot weather she did have skin problems so we went to 100% cotton bedding and total non-scented clear detergent.

    To the people who doubt a shar pei's ability to defend its owner from other people and from other dogs has never seen one in action.

They are also really good at understanding situations, I've had someone try to steal her and my bulldog on a walk at night and she tore that dude up the moment he grabbed the leash.

His owner quickly came and retrieved him while it took everything I had to keep her chomping mouth from tearing into this shocked dogs face 😳
      She was the most loyal and amazing dog I have ever owned.

    For anyone wanting a pei, I can’t recommend them enough. I have had two and both have been some of the best dogs I have ever had. They are so loyal, loving, and protective of those they love. One bit of advice would be to get a dna test through embark or another service as soon as you get your dog. They now show if your dog has the associated genes for Shar Pei Fever. I did it with my current pei and have had him on the medication that manages the disease. It will definitely keep your dog happy and safer in the long run if you know if your dog is predisposed to the condition!!

    I owned a shar pei a few years ago. She was my baby girl, Beija. She was given to me by my cousins friend who was in the military and couldn’t take care of her so I was honor to adopt her and gave her all the love and attention. Unfortunately, one night I took her outside to go to the bathroom but she somehow ran out after a ball and was run over. I miss my baby girl. She was definitely a good dog who was protective, loving, and just unique in her own way. 💕

    I had shar pie and he was a wonderful dog. Very loyal, and very intelligent, he was a house dog I kept him in the house, his name was Cruiser, if he heard something outside he wouldn't bark, he would huff, just to let me know something was wrong. I had to go live with my dad during my divorce and he instantly love my dad,and when my uncle would come over he would sit right by my Dad and growl lightly at my uncle just to let him know he would protect my dad at all cost. My Uncle was not amused but my dad was cracking up the whole time Cruiser was growling ever so lightly at my uncle, when I got home from work he would run and hug me. Such a good boy. I had to take him to visit dad regularly after I got a place to live with my boys. He would come in my room and lay down by my bed until I fell asleep then he would go get in bed with my son, under the covers with his head on a pillow just like he was human. Lol

      @@mariana7802 my youngest was 6 and the first thing this dog did when I brought him home is to jump in bed with my son, while cruiser was a family dog he had his picks of his favorite people, he was definitely my youngest son's dog, he would come into my bedroom until I fell asleep then go get in bed with my son, covers pulled up over him and his head on a pillow while my son wrapped his arm around this dog. They are very loyal dogs, once you've become their person, they will protect them with fierce loyalty. I absolutely recommend getting a shar-pei. I recommend getting them as a puppy, and letting them grow with your children. While he loved the entire family he wasn't fond of my husband when I first got him, my husband was away for a week, so he wasn't introduced to my husband at first. My ex- husband was an abusive man, so he disliked my ex-husband immediately, but he really was my and both my son's dog. He would growl at my ex-husband all the time until he finally got used to him. Like I said they are fiercely loyal and will protect you and your families. I once woke up at 3:00am and took him out, he began to feel although I couldn't see anything he sensed it, then I saw a man running towards me, and it was all I could do to hold onto him, he was standing on his hind legs and bearing his teeth and just growling and trying to get to this man, what he thought was a danger to me. This man saw this dog and ran the other way, I don't know the mans intentions, but my dog knew he was dangerous, they will protect you at the cost of their lives, as long as I told him you were okay, he wouldn't be obvious about it, like I said he would growl at my uncle, while he sat by my Daddy, not loud, but loud enough to let you know him know would protect you till the end, he loved my daddy dearly. My Dad always said that cruiser was his favorite grandpuppy. So funny.

    I can tell you, he is hot tempered when being handled by someone else other than his mamma (he is a Show dog, but entering his 8th month of being a hot tempered Aries boi).
    In all seriousness, he is being trained to become my next SD, doing my best by him to get him properly trained. He is smart, oh so smart. Clean indeed! Like a cat, constantly cleaning himself. I do keep him cleaned weekly and bathed bimonthly. He is a soft boi but my husband is indeed allergic to him and he doesn’t care. We are over the moon with our Braemar 🥹🥰

    Our family has had this Breed since 1988 when we got a fawn horse coat female from Lava Kennels. We couldn't have asked for a better and healthier dog. Mai Ling lived to be fourteen years old. However, there seems to be a few rude and uninformed people commenting on this very well produced video with an interesting and informative narrative by Susanna and Rose. Breeders work hard to improve their Breed. They don't make a lot of money. In fact, they're lucky if they break even. The only people who make money hand over fist are puppy mills where they don't care about the welfare of their dogs as long as they produce litter after litter. A good Breeder cares about their dogs.

    I've had 2 Shar Peis, one boy who died a few years ago, and now a girl. My boy was less affectionate, but a good and peaceful boy. Once an Akita charged our toddler who was playing in the front yard with daddy, and my Shar Pei Jet, blew the screen door wide open and charged at that Akita and ran him off. Our female, Pearl, carefully vets every person who comes in the door, even people she knows well. You aren't getting in my front door without a careful examination, and if I'm not downstairs to open the door, you aren't getting in at all. Loved the description that they are cat-like. I'm always saying Pearl is a cat in a dog's body. Enjoyed this video! There's a lot of Shar pei slander out there.

      If you bath her more often, once every week or so, completely dry her the best you can. I like using Mane and Tail shampoo, it’s made for horses. If they are itching, I like a oatmeal based shampoo. 100% got rid of the smell. But drying is important, if not, bacteria will form in the wrinkles, that’s your smell.

    Great news since this video was made - the test the ladies spoke about regarding the possibility of a dog to get SPAID is now available in the US. YAY!
    There is one correction I'd like to mention; SPAID actually stands for Shar-Pei Auto INFLAMMATORY Disease - not autoimmune. This was once referred to as FSF (Familial Shar-Pei Fever) but with further research it became named SPAID.
    I don't remember if the ladies mentioned the STSS (Streptococcus Toxic Shock Syndrome) disease. It is a very serious disease which is due to a bacterial and/or inflammatory infection. Should the body temp get over 104 degrees or there are visible symptoms, if not treated immediately, the infection can become septic and the dog is very likely to not survive the oncoming septic shock. There is similar & often comorbid STSS-like necrotizing fasciitis infection that can affect the skin, muscle & internal organs with the same end result. Early recognition & immediate treatment can be life saving! SPAID is often the catalyst for these two diseases - so, with the new test that indicates the possible likelihood of SPAID in a dog, responsible breeding will help lessen the chances of a dog getting SPAID and will be pivitol in decreasing these diseases.
    The really great news is that more and more breeders are breeding utilizing the results of the test & hopefully this will be a huge breakthrough in avoiding SPAID, Et Al !!

    @alexmossotti6598 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Here's what I will say: thank you for producing a very well done short introductory film with two fine women who have devoted their lives to the betterment of this specific breed. There are likely to be thousands of ignorant and uninformed, uneducated, bias-ridden comments on any of your video threads, particularly some of these rarer breeds that have been referred to as "bastardized." These are coming from people who generally do not understand the real concept of what preservation breeding truly means and the devotion it takes to protect a breed and better it with each generation, especially having come from a virtually extinct gene pool. People who rally around bashing anything on the Internet I find rely heavily on said resource to inform what they "know" about a breed (or various other topic). If you do not own, train, breed, medically treat, or fervently study any breed of dog, you are not an expert on it. Relying on various social media platforms to properly and thoroughly educate individuals on all that was, is, and will be a Shar-Pei is an unfathomable notion. I celebrate this video and who stand behind it-this information is correct, but it is also only a 25 minute long feature that highlights the most significant information for the average person. I encourage everyone that feels so inclined to say they "know" this breed and make claims that are unfounded to take a step back and ask themselves really how educated and unbiased they are because most of the comments I read are riddled with opinions that are not founded on experience or proper study. Go to a library, go to a dog history museum, go to the breed clubs' historians, read books; go to shows and ask the people who are handling the dogs you're interested in. This video channel is a fabulous resource and I applaud the effort put into all the videos, but it's just a starting point for each breed. The Chinese Shar-Pei standard can be found on the breed club website cspca.com and it fully serves as the proper educational and historical resource the breed bashers should really consider investigating. It's too bad the Internet, social media, and backyard breeders have painted such a negative view of my breed in so many's eyes. This is not what the purpose of preservation breeding is supposed to be: it's about keeping the health and temperament at the forefront of the breeders' minds in protecting the dogs and keeping their history alive. Calling them "useless" I personally found completely harsh and offensive, especially considering that I take mine to obedience class every week, do therapy programs, and am training for agility with my female. They are highly intelligent and purposeful breeding preserves their all purpose farm dog capabilities, and you are foolish if you choose to believe that they are weak, soft, stupid or unsound as a generalization of the breed. Well socialized and hand reared Shar-Pei puppies are non such a thing. They may be fixated on their one person, but a sound dog is never overly timid, fearful, or aggressive. Assertive, powerful, smart, and excessively loyal... they can do it all if you invite them to it, and I cannot overstate how significant the natural guarding and protection ability inherently withdraws from my dogs when they feel I am being threatened or challenged. To my friends who poured a lot into this video, thank you. To all else who choose to explore the breed more, I encourage you to do so... without relying on only one source of information. That is never a way to become an expert on anything; especially if you have no experience with it.
