Notable facts
The 'Satin' sheen is caused by a smaller hair diameter that allows light to reflect uniquely off the inner pith.
Breeding recommendations
- Sleek coat requires minimal brushing but benefits from a soft-bristle brush during molting.
- High-quality fiber diet maintains signature gloss.
- Small breed (1.4–2.0 kg) adapts to compact housing but needs daily exercise.
- Sweet and calm — excellent for novice pet owners.
- Show-focused only.
