​Chiyoko Chin
​

Owning, Showing & Breeding Japanese Chin since 2009
​Canadian Kennel Club (CKC) Permanently Registered

We added our first Japanese Chin to our family back in 2009, one woo-woo and we were completely smitten with that tiny bundle of fur.  We fell in love with Sachio,  showed him to his CKC championship and his Canine Good Neighbor titles, had his eyes, heart, GM2 and patellas certified and bred him in 2011.   We have been participating in our local shows and occasionally breeding Japanese Chin ever since.

Happy, Healthy Champion Bloodlines

All of our Japanese Chin are cherished family members first and show dogs second. Our "kennel" is our home, where our Japanese Chin rule!  We are proud of our small family. Over the years, with very limited local showing, we have had the pleasure of producing many Canadian Champions, including:

As recommended by the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals, prior to breeding, our chin are tested for Gangliosidosis (GM2), patella, eye and heart health.  In addition to the recommended testing we also like Embark's advanced DNA screening for inheritable disease.  Most recently, as the testing has become available in our area,  we have also been able to add the Respiratory Function Grading Scheme (RFGS) test which screens for Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome (BOAS).  Test results are publicly available on the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) website.
