Expert Answer

The Pekingese, also called the lion dog, usually has these features: a wide head with a flat top between the ears and heart-shaped drop ears; a short, wide muzzle with a black, slightly upturned nose and a wrinkled bridge; large, round, slightly protruding black eyes set wide apart, with black rings around the muzzle and eyes.

The body is short and low, wider at front and narrower at back, with moderately sprung ribs and a flat back; the legs are short, sturdy, and the front legs bow slightly outward; the tail curls up, with more fur at the tip spreading to both sides.
