DOG BREED
Behind this dog's angry face lies a generally friendly nature. Historically, this indigenous Chinese breed was utilized for herding and protecting livestock, as well as for hunting and fighting. Nevertheless, the Shar Pei's affable character and relatively compact size make it an excellent companion for both urban and rural settings. Its unique look has led to a surge in popularity, and for a time, owning a Shar Pei became a trend. Some breeders attempted to accentuate the Shar Pei's wrinkled appearance by producing dogs with excessively loose and folded skin on their faces. Unfortunately, this practice resulted in eye issues, and it is now largely regarded as unethical.
