Indeed, the Pekingese is dignified, supremely confident, and one of the most independent (and stubborn) of the toy breeds.

Calm and quiet indoors, the Peke is content to lie on the sofa cushions much of the time, observing his kingdom with his direct, inscrutable gaze. Yet he will also surprise you with sudden bursts of comic playfulness. Some individuals are more lively than others.

Most Pekingese are stubborn, usually in a passive-resistance sort of way. You must show them, through absolute consistency, that you mean what you say. Food is a great motivator with this breed, but too many cookies equals a fat Peke. Also you don't want a dog who only obeys when you're waving a biscuit at him.

The Pekingese is feisty, courageous, and independent. They are affectionate and sensitive, and they thrive on human attention. They are leery of strangers, and they are sometimes obstinate and self-willed. Some are picky eaters and may be difficult to feed. If overfed, the Pekingese will put on weight quickly. Because of their propensity to bark a lot, they make good watch dogs. They aren’t recommended for small children who will tease them. This breed can be difficult to housebreak.

The Pekingese is well-suited to life in a small household or apartment. They are a comparatively inactive breed indoors, and they are content to live without a yard. The breed doesn’t require much exercise, but they will stay in better health if they are given regular opportunities to run around and play.

The Pekingese originated in the Imperial courts of China. They were held in high regard and often given as gifts among the nobility. This regal air is still common in modern Pekingese, who believe themselves to be royalty, and expect their families to treat them as nobility and not helpless lap dogs. According to the AKC Standard, Pekingese "should imply courage, boldness, and self-esteem rather than prettiness, daintiness, or delicacy." Pekingese make excellent companions for older people who have the time to devote all of their attention to their dog, as this breed demands a lot of attention. They adore their immediate family but are wary of strangers, which makes them excellent little watchdogs.

Pekingese can be happy in a big home or an apartment, as they don't need a lot of vigorous activity to maintain health and happiness. They like to take walks, proudly strutting their stuff around the neighborhood, and will love playing outdoors, but as they get older they become less playful.

It can be easy to shelter a Pekingese. They are tiny and people love to carry them and tote them around in purses. You must walk a fine line, though. Over-sheltered Pekingese can become very high strung. It is important to give your Pekingese independence. Let him walk on a leash rather than tote him around in a bag and socialize him around people and other animals so that he knows how to greet and be greeted with proper manners.

I have two Pekes that I keep clipped which enhances their appearance and keeps them playful. They are as different as chalk and cheese - both are stubborn. Love them.
