The Chinese Crested Dog is sort of like a tiny, scruffy alien who decided to wear a fuzzy hat and forgot to groom itself. Imagine a dog that is mostly skin, with just a few tufts of hair sticking out randomly like it lost a bet. It has a penchant for looking both regal and ridiculous at the same time, often resembling a walking chicken or an awkwardly styled old man in a midlife crisis. This creature can come in two styles: the "hairy" version that gives a nod to an overly ambitious hairstyle, and the "hairless" one that looks like it’s perpetually wearing a very bad sunburn. Despite its odd appearance, it's like a clingy cupcake with a big heart, ready to sit on your lap and stare into your soul.
