Quote
From An Owner:
Chins
love people and are extremely loyal to their owners. They are also
aristocrats who must rule, and they will soon position themselves as
the heads of any household. They command the love and affection of
every member of the household, including all other pets.
Few breeds are so
quick to read your thoughts and adapt their own behavior to the mood
of the moment. They have almost human thoughts and actions, and are
very people oriented. They will act as you act, if you’re excited
they will get excited and start doing their infamous
‘chin-spins’. If you’re quietly sitting around reading a book,
they will curl up next to you and sit content just to be near you.
