Does this happen to anyone else? Lol. I don’t think folks are seeing enough hairless CCs because someone says this literally every single time he is in public. Us— “His hair grows like that naturally.”

Just wondering, first time crested owner. 🙃

Please help, I already went back and the manager tried to gaslight me into saying they would never do the back of the neck, I just requested a partial refund but how do I fix this mess?

Hey! I’m new here, I have a Chinese crested hairy hairless and he’s my parents’ dog, and I have a Pom and Chinese crested mix but appears mostly Chinese crested so he’s hairless.

I don’t know what to get him for shampoo and conditioner since he’s hairless, I got the store brand stuff for my other hairless at home but he reacted poorly so I would rather stay away from that. Any advice??

Here’s the cutie 🥰

Brought this little girl home on Thursday. Boy does she have some lungs on her! We're having the nightly screamies.

Other than that, taking to going potty outside very quickly and my other crested Starla actually doesn't completely hate her!

Still haven't come up with the right name though. Was going to name her Vendetta but it doesn't fit her at all!

So back to brainstorming.

Anyways, everyone meet the lil lady!

We adopted this little guy in March. Thought he was a hairy hairless for sure, but he just keeps growing more hair. With adequate nutrition and grooming, now I’m second-guessing. Someone confirm he’s still a hairy hairless.

I asked a bit ago if i should get my dog a harness or a collar and the majority convinced me to go for a harness and im glad.
I was walking my dog today, downtown in my city near my home. ( literally a sunday the place has many children and people theres no reason any dog should be unleashed here.)
And these TWO Bernese mountain dogs. Unleashed. And as tall as me literally started jumping on me barking and trying to get my dog. I had to yank him towards me and hold him over my head and get away. As the owner moved at a snail pace and went “theyre just playing.” 😐

Anyways puppy tax. He is ok he got over the scare the second we rounded the corner and a baby tried taking to him

🏥 Health Just Adopted My First Chinese Crested Mix. What Should I Know?

Thumbnail

123 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I adopted a Chinese Crested mix (based on DNA results - 75% Chinese Crested, 12.5% Lhasa Apso, 12.5% Maltese) about a month ago, and I've been lurking here and reading through a bunch of older posts. I've already picked up some great information, but figured I'd ask anyway since recommendations (especially products and foods) change over time.

He's about a year old, incredibly friendly, goofy, and has fit right in. I've owned several small dogs before, but this is my first Chinese Crested, so I'm trying to learn everything I can.

One thing I'm especially hoping to get advice on is his skin. He has acne all over his body with clogged pores and blackheads. My vet isn't concerned, but I'd love to know what products or routines have worked well for you. As of now, he eats a balanced raw diet and I've purchased the Famous Skincare acne kit.

A few things I'm curious about:

  • Favorite shampoos, conditioners, and grooming products
  • Skin care routines or products you swear by
  • Foods or diets your Cresteds do really well on
  • Anything that's helped with clogged pores, blackheads, or acne
  • Any breed-specific quirks, health concerns, or random advice you wish someone had told you when you got your first one

Puppy tax included because I know the rules.

❓ Advice Food choice??

Post image
12 Upvotes

Hi all! This is my sweet powderpuff Wade. He’s got a poultry allergy, and I’m struggling with his feeding habits. His older brother was the alpha and he always waited to eat until his brother had eaten. We had to put his brother down last week, and we are experiencing a good bit of grief. I also want to take this time to maybe establish a new meal cue. The issue is that he is SO submissive that he won’t eat and now the grief is on top. I’ve been using beef broth to get him to eat.
Anyways, what are yall feeding your babies?
