Breed Description:
The Chineranian breed of dog is not a recognized breed of dog. Instead it is a cross of a Japanese Chin and a Pomeranian. This makes it a hybrid dog or a designer dog. The difference between a designer dog and what people commonly refer to as mutts or mixed breeds is the fact that designer dogs are usually bred intentionally. The parents are purebred dogs, often registered. They may even have been health-tested. The ancestry of the designer dog is known, unlike with most mutts and mixed breed dogs. The breeder is trying to produce a certain kind of dog for some reason.
The Chineranian breed of dog may combine traits of its Japanese Chin and Pomeranian parents or it may resemble one parent more than another. It’s also possible for a breeder to breed two dogs that are Chineranians together. This means that the dogs are the result of previous breedings of Japanese Chins and Pomeranians. However, the puppies may still resemble either Japanese Chins and Pomeranians.
If you are interested in a Chineranian breed of dog then you should gather information about both the Japanese Chin and the Pomeranian. There’s no way to tell exactly how the puppies will turn out or to what degree they will resemble which parent.
