Japanese Chin Discussions

I'm so excited, I put money down on a Japanese Chin today and I get her the 1st part of May. I cannot wait she is 9 months and so sweet. (black and white)

ooops double post, I told you I was excited.LOL

How exciting! You will absolutely love her; they are the sweetest, most fun little dogs ever (well, I'm a little biased!). (There's a Forum called Everything Chin you might want to join).

Good Morning Miranda, thank you so much and I will check out the website you mentioned and I'm sure I will join. I am going to call her Geisha. She seemed alittle frightened of me when I was down on the floor with her but when I pick her up she is sweet and calm. I think she spent more time with dogs than people in her 9 mos and I might just wait for a puppy. Have to decide.

I also think people who get a puppy mill rescue that have been caged for years seem to bring them out with love and good care and she would not be that hard I am sure. I just never saw a pup that didn't run to people. I put my purse down and they all ran to put their nose in it to see what it was all about. (so cat like and they are so clean) I'll let you know what I decide.

So sorry I could not get her, I have a health issue I need to take care of first. I'll let you know when. Can't wait and although I don't think this is serious I want to make sure first.

My health issue was minor and no problem.

Anyone have any new Japanese Chin to add to our bunch here. Love to see pictures

hi, nop i dont have chins im afraid altho i do have cresteds well one at the mo lol glad ive found someone who has cresteds too there doesnt seem to be many of us

Oh, I wasn't look for a JC across the pond, alittle far to travel. Just wondered if new members have JC's

I think it's even harder to find JC's than Cresties but temperament on both is very nice.

aww so cute ! thanks for letting us see the pics

So glad things worked out for you and you now have a beautiful Chin. They are the sweetest dogs in the world (I'm a little biased, I'm afraid)

Miranda Hun, I don't think you read where I couldn't get her. i am looking for a Chin or Yorkie but it will be some time yet.

Oops, my mistake. Anyway, good luck in your search!

Just wanted to pop in and say, any Japanese Chin owners out there should check out the new disaster flick "2012". There is a gorgeous red and white Chin named Caesar who appears throughout the film. I'd never seen a Chin in a movie before!

Thanks for letting us know, I now for sure will see the movie.

Anyone else with Chins? I've loved this breed for a long time and finally got up close and personal with some yesterday at Crufts

I made a complete idiot of myself at Crufts today, went to see the Chins at DD-thinking I'd be fine, nearly 6 months since we lost Kindly but I ended up blubbing all over the lovely lady who let me give one of them a fuss

Awww! Was it the older lady with the epileptic dog in the crate?

I cant stop thinking about chins! they are on my list as a possible future dog, and have just been looking on the club website and there doesnt appear to be any recommended health tests for breeding dogs? does anyone know if this is correct:? ?

why isn't the 'quote' working like it is in post 54??:?
