I grew up with Peks. My parents got me my first pekingese dog when I was very little. I named him Snoopy. He was very laid back. I would dress him with my baby clothes mom would give me and I'd cut a hole for his tail. He'd walk around dressed up.

We had a farm with cows, etc. Snoopy would go out to the pasture and chase those cows. And they would run from him!

It's just in their make-up. But maybe some 'dog whisperer' techniques might help. Good luck!
