My Shar-Pei loves to steal food off the table when no one is watching.

They are sweet dogs.

While I love seeing my Shar-Pei interact with others, I prefer to keep it to close friends and family. Their skin folds make them delicate, so I'm cautious about who approaches. It's also worth noting that Shar-Peis can be territorial and might not like being touched by those they don't know.
answer · Shar-Pei
I would recommend a Shar-Pei if you don't mind a bit of stubbornness. They are incredibly loyal and protective. However, their wrinkles can trap moisture, which might need regular cleaning to prevent skin issues. Training them can be a challenge due to their independent nature. But once you bond with them, they’re wonderful companions.

I also use a gentle soap during baths to keep her skin and folds healthy. I find it helps prevent irritation. Plus, I often check her skin for any unusual bumps or issues.

I’ve noticed the same behavior in my Shar-Pei. They often seem disinterested until I leave the room. But once I’m gone, they start panicking and searching for me. It’s a classic Shar-Pei quirk and honestly, I think it just shows how much they love their humans. Their unique personality traits make them such an interesting breed, and I wouldn’t trade mine for anything.

Every single time! My Shar-Pei gets so many comments on her serious face. It's amusing because she has such a sweet, silly personality once you get to know her. It's like she's got a poker face that leaves everyone guessing what she's thinking!

You are not imagining it. I stopped expecting dignity. It makes life funnier. Honestly these moments are why I post on id4.pet. Real dogs, real personalities. Still figuring it out like everyone else, Ethan.
