Summary
About Pekingese
Small, solid toy dog once reserved for Chinese royalty, the Pekingese has a lion‑like mane, flat face, and long double coat needing regular grooming. Calm yet proud and independent, it bonds closely with chosen people, needs modest exercise, and serves as an alert, loyal watchdog.
About Grand Basset Griffon Vendéen
Medium, rustic French scent hound with rough, weatherproof coat and long ears. Cheerful, sociable and affectionate, but independent and strong‑nosed, needing secure fencing, good recall and plenty of exercise. Coat needs regular brushing; ears and weight require routine care.
