Meet Aesop! He is a 7 week old True Hairless Male Chinese Crested. Ready to home by 9 weeks (June 3, 2026) Looking for a pet only home, neuter is required. Does come under contract. Pictures to be updated as I get them! He is a very sweet little guy who is going to be the center of attention wherever he goes. He will likely remain on the smaller side (7-9 lbs) as he ages. He is spunky, & full of sass, and will be an exceptional family pet. Aesop and his litter are litter trained to prep for the transition to potty training outside. They have been exposed (and are continually exposed) to outside sounds, car noises, different people, other dogs (always at a distance) and handling. I expect them to be very well rounded puppies when they go to their new homes. Grooming has been practiced (clippers for shaved ears and faces + body for the HHL babies), nail trims, baths, water play to get them used to it without fear, as well as lots and lots of love and patience. These guys do know their individual names by now, so if owner decides to change them they do catch on quickly. This litter will not be registered, but comes from AKC registered parents. Their price reflects their unregistered status, however they are still well bred purebred dogs. Proof of pedigree can be shown Reach out with questions, thank you!

Frequently Asked Questions
About Chinese Crested Puppies

What's it like owning a Chinese Crested?
This mostly hairless breed and it’s powderpuff siblings are great for people with allergies as both varieties are hypoallergenic. Their broad head, large perky ears, and long muzzle give the Chinese Crested a distinct look to go along with their ultra-extroverted and fun-loving personality. Full-grown, they typically weigh 8-12 pounds and stand 11-13 inches tall.
Do Chinese Cresteds do well in a busy household?
Chinese Cresteds are generally okay with older children who know how to handle dogs. The Chinese Crested gets along well with children who respect their pup's personal space, other dogs, and any household pets. Young children should be watched around the Hairless Chinese Crested as they lack the naturally protective coat most breeds have to protect them from rough play. They're moderate barkers — they'll alert you when something's up but aren't excessive.
What's the best way to exercise a Chinese Crested?
Chinese Crested exercise and activity needs are rather minimal. They prefer a daily walk, but can usually have their needs met by indoor play. The Chinese Crested is well-suited for apartment life. Overall, their exercise needs are low.
How much grooming does a Chinese Crested need?
There are two distinct varieties of Chinese Crested—the ‘Hairless’ Chinese Crested and the more common ‘Powder Puff’ Chinese Crested. The Hairless Chinese Crested has soft, human-like skin and tufts of fur on their head and ears, tail tip, feet, and other sporadic places on their bodies. The Powerpuff variety has a thick double coat with a very soft, silky topcoat. Grooming-wise, this breed is low-maintenance. Chinese Cresteds are considered hypoallergenic, which can be a plus for allergy sufferers.
Where do Chinese Cresteds do best — city or country?
