Japanese Chin


Here's a breed you don't often see - a Japanese Chin.  It's a type of toy spaniel and was well-known to the Japanese nobility. It's also known for have a 'strabismus' of the eye. And no, I didn't know what that meant either! Apparently it means it has a squint! I met this little cutie in Menton.

Very cute. Seems curious about something or another.

They come in black and white or red and white and sometimes they have a over length tongue . Rare but very elegant .
