Pekingese Dogs

History of the Breed

 
        The noble Pekingese are an ancient breed that dates back to the Tang Dynasty in the eighth century in China. Originally only the royal family could own Pekingese. Anyone not of royal blood found with one of these little darlings was beheaded, and the dog was given to the empress herself.

It is said that the Empress kept a small Pekingese in each sleeve of her gown to prevent assassination attempts.

In the 1800's, Briton invaded China's Summer Palace, and finding five pekes there, took them back to England when they returned.  They were presented to Queen Victoria as a gift. From these five treasures began the modern Pekingese as we know it.
 
The breed was recognized by the AKC in 1906

 Back Forty Tuxedo

 

Ch. PJ's I'm A Parti By Gosh x Susie Q's Lost Fifty
Our stud dog is a beautiful black and white Parti peke we purchased from BackForty Kennels in Terry, Mississippi.  Frances Macdonald runs a tight ship and we have found we can depend on the quality. She delivers. Tux is a delight, he thinks he is a bouvier and has backed them down when he feels they are out of line.  We are expecting a litter by him and Charmin pixie this summer.

Occasionally we have gone outside of our dogs for outcross. One of the dogs we have used on several occasions is the MultiChampion Pekingese Ch. Bruce's Royal Dragon. He is a lovely dark tipped silver show champion many many times

 

Our Pekingese Girls

 

Charmin Pixie

 

Smith's Southern Fireball x Smith Chow Ling
Pixie is our matriarch of our females.  She is an adorable fawn with red highlights.  She has a black mask and absolutely huge soft eyes.  While she is not a show dog herself she has produced many champions.  Pixie is having her last litter then will be spayed so she can just relax and retire.
      Pixie has the most wonderful personality. She has her favorite dog bed, if anyone else gets in it she runs them out. If someone takes her little pillow she hunts it down and takes it back. She's non aggressive but she knows what is hers. And she intends to see that it stays that way.

 

Ravinwood Su-linn

 

Ch, Hidden Majesty Nanook x Boots Masquerade
      Su-linn is the class clown of the family, she is always into something.  She is a champagne fawn with a lovely flat face and silky coat.  She will be having a litter by Tuxedo sometime this year.

 

 

Ravinwood Meisha

 

Ch. Bruce's Royal Dragon x Charmin Pixie
        Meisha is our show puppy extraordinaire. We are very proud of breeding her.  She is a lovely dark fawn with silver and black points.  Her face is to die for. She is going to have her daddy's show coat.  It is already dragging the ground at five months, believe me I have to brush her.  She has a lovely black face and sweet disposition.
