And later in the 17th century, they went to England and within the following two centuries, they became popular pets among upper class. Nowadays, it is spread in Europe as a popular social dog.

It appreciates the presence of its master very much and pays it back with obedience. It gets on well with other dogs and other pets as well as with children.

The Japanese Chin easily adjusts to the household and to the mood of a person which makes it a really great companion.

However, if you have reasonable requirements that correspond to its abilities, you treat it calmly and openly, consistency is enough and you will have an obedient pet.
