Chinese Crested

The Chinese Crested is a breed that doesn’t need any grooming at all. However, their exposed skin needs enough care and attention. We’re suggesting this breed to seniors because, unlike other breeds that will need you to break a sweat in playing games with them or giving them walks, and the Chinese Crested will happily prefer sitting quietly with their owners as quality time.
