Chinese Crested Dog, a page dedicated to pictures of the Chinese
Crested sent in from our viewers.
Chinese Crested Dog :: there are two varieties, the Hairless and
the Powderpuff, the hairless is thought to be the more unusual looking
of the two. The tuft of hair on their head is called the crest hence
the name.
The skin on the Hairless should be soft to the touch and can require
moisturizing cream to keep it subtle, care should be taken in the
sun to prevent sunburn.
