The Pekingese, named for the capital of China, was once called the Lion Dog for his golden mane and sturdy frame. He was also called the Sleeve Dog for the ability of his master to carry him inside his sleeves. Considered a sacred dog during the Tang Dynasty (A.D. 618-906), the breed is probably older than that. Thousands roamed the royal palaces and no one outside of nobility was allowed to have one. During the second Opium War in 1860, the imperial family ordered that all of the dogs be destroyed so the foreign invaders could not obtain them. Many escaped this massacre, however, and an English officer brought five of them home thus introducing the breed to the West. in the late 1800s, gifts of the breed by Chinese royalty to westerners added to the basic stock from which the modern breed in the West descends. The breed was recognized by the Kennel Club of Great Britain in 1893 and the American Kennel Club in 1909.
