The Japanese Chin easily adjusts to the household and to the mood of a person which makes it a really great companion.
With regard to upbringing, it is not problematic due to its efforts to please everyone. However, tough upbringing is not very suitable and it would make the dog too wilful and stubborn. 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.
