Shar-peis are not considered amongst the most intelligent dogs (please see below in Related Links for more information). However, they are not unintelligent, and the margin between the ends of the spectrum is not wide.

Shar-peis are one of the 14 ancient breeds. Through breeding for protection, hunting, and fighting, Shar-peis have a very distinct personality, and are typically considered amongst the most difficult to train. They very often exhibit stubbornness, aloofness, and autonomous behavior - though they are very loving and highly protective of their perceived "pack" (that is, the person or persons who care for them).

They are often cited as "one-owner-dogs", which means that even with only a couple raising them, they will still show strong preference for only one of the two caretakers. If you are considering adopting or buying a Shar-pei, please be aware, these are widely regarded as very difficult dogs to raise, and are very strongly discouraged to first-time or novice dog owners/trainers.

Shar-peis are highly protective animals. They are considered an "ancient breed", along with three others (including Chow Chows, which are from the same family), and have been bred for hundreds of years. Shar-peis originated in China, and have been used for a variety of tasks throughout history, most notably as guard dogs at imperial palaces. The wrinkles on a Shar-pei were exaggerated through generations of breeding, and allow a Shar-pei much greater maneuverability when fighting than most other dogs (for instance, were another dog to attack the Shar-pei's neck, as dogs do when actually fighting, the Shar-pei has such loose skin that he is often able to move to counter-attack the other dog, simultaneously suffering much lesser injuries than the other dog may). As Shar-peis have been bred for fighting, and guarding, they are highly territorial and thus extremely protective.
