Coat
The Japanese Chin coat is abundant, straight, single, and silky. It has a resilient texture and a tendency to stand out from the body, especially on neck, shoulders, and chest areas where the hair forms a thick mane or ruff. The tail is profusely coated and forms a plume. The rump area is heavily coated and forms culottes or pants. The head and muzzle are covered with short hair except for the heavily feathered ears. The forelegs have short hair blending into profuse feathering on the backs of the legs. The rear legs have the previously described culottes, and in mature dogs, light feathering from hock joint to the foot.
Character
The Japanese Chin is a sensitive and intelligent dog whose only purpose is to serve man as a companion. It is responsive and affectionate with those it knows and loves but reserved with strangers or in new situations
