chis has no smell....they can have a bath one in 6 month and have no smell, while with yorkies every 7-10 days is a must, or they became smelling very bad.
I also spoke with a guy who have many yorkies, malteses and chis, and he sad the same.
His malteses and yorkies smell, while chi have absolutely no smell.
For me its a huge thing.

I have a short haired Chi and I can tell you I have never seen so much as a single strand on hair! She doesn't shed at all and if she does, I sure as heck have never seen any lose hair flying around LOL
I give her a bath every 4-6 weeks. It's not necessary because she is clean and always smells good but I do it for sanitary purposes. I use an enriching shampoo (NOT one that dries out the skin) and I only use a tiny amount. Then I follow up with a generous amount of enriching conditioner. I don't even have to dry her -- I just wrap her in a towel for a few seconds and she's dry!!
I HIGHLY recommend Chi's. I love my little girl and I think Chi's are an awesome breed! She gets along PERFECTLY with my Maltese, Codie and my Yorkie, Tia. They're best friends and ALWAYS kissing and making out LOL
