Adopting a Chinese Crested

Frequently asked questions about acquiring an Chinese Crested - the pros and cons of adopting versus going through a breeder, and associated costs.

You can adopt a Chinese Crested at a much lower cost than buying one from a breeder. The cost to adopt a Chinese Crested is around $300 in order to cover the expenses of caring for the dog before adoption. In contrast, buying Chinese Crested from breeders can be prohibitively expensive. Depending on their breeding, they usually cost anywhere from $1,000 to $4,000.

The easiest way to adopt a Chinese Crested is through a rescue that specializes in the breed. You can start by doing a breed search on Adopt a Pet. The search will show you all the available Chinese Crested Dogs in your area.

Chinese Crested fun facts

Fun Facts:

No panting necessary: Chinese Crested Dogs can cool down by sweating (they have sweat glands, unlike other dogs)!

Chinese Crested Dogs have won the World's Ugliest Dog contest more than any other breed.

Chinese Crested Dogs come in two types: hairless or "puff." The hairless type is considered the result of a genetic accident perpetuated by further cross-breeding for the type.
