    Breeding recommendations
    • Very social and attentive; thrives with human contact.
    • Generally docile, making them excellent show animals for junior exhibitors.
    • Mature weight 2.0–2.7 kg; monitor diet to prevent obesity in non-breeding adults.
    • Standard small-breed housing with regular movement space.
    • Strict colour standard — red intensity is key for show.
