This small, elegant companion has some unique health traits\u2014especially related to skin\u2014that can influence its risk for certain tumors.

Breed Overview: The Chinese Crested at a Glance<\/h2>\n<p>The Chinese Crested is a toy breed known for its affectionate, people-focused temperament and quirky, often clownish personality. They come in two varieties:<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 <strong>\u30d8\u30a2\u30ec\u30b9<\/strong>: Silky hair on the head (crest), tail (plume), and feet (socks) with mostly bare skin.<br \/>\n\u2013 <strong>\u30d1\u30a6\u30c0\u30fc\u30d1\u30d5<\/strong>: Fully coated with a soft, fine double coat.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. \u5178\u578b\u7684\u306a\u7279\u5fb4:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2013 <strong>\u30b5\u30a4\u30ba<\/strong>: 8\u201312 lbs (3.5\u20135.5 kg) on average<br \/>\n\u2013 <strong>\u5bff\u547d<\/strong>: Often 13\u201315+ years with good care<br \/>\n\u2013 <strong>Temperament<\/strong>: Velcro dogs\u2014loving, sensitive, often shy with strangers but deeply attached to their families<br \/>\n\u2013 <strong>Common health tendencies<\/strong>: Dental issues, patellar luxation (loose kneecaps), skin sensitivity (especially in hairless dogs)<\/p>\n<p>Because of their exposed skin and certain genetic traits, Chinese Cresteds are believed to have an increased risk for <strong>specific skin tumors<\/strong>, especially those related to sun exposure. As a small, long-lived breed, they are also at risk for the same age-related cancers seen in many other dogs.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014<\/p>\n<h2>B.

Skin Cancers (Especially in Hairless Cresteds)<\/h3>\n<p>The hairless variety\u2019s exposed skin makes them particularly sensitive to UV damage.
