Pekingese
*************
The Pekingese is a regal small toy dog breed characterized by a lion-like appearance. The Pekingese seems to date back to the 9th century in China. Ownership of the Peke was restricted to members of the Chinese Imperial Court and they were considered sacred by the Chinese Tang dynasty. The breed was brought back to England in 1860 when British troops occupied the Peking Summer Palace during the Second Opium War. Pekes were shown in England in the 1890’s and were recognized in the U.S. in 1909.
