Continued from [THE HISTORY]  -  During World War I, the supply of Japanese Chins to America was cut off to such an extent that breeders were limited to the dogs already here. Japan, too, suffered losses when earthquakes played havoc among their breeders.

Dogs found in England and Europe have helped to maintain a high level of quality and have since made their way to America to blend with the established lines here. The breed's compact size, coupled with being naturally clean, intelligent and sensitive, makes this an ideal companion.
