It all depends on the dogs that are behind her in her pedigree and if they carry the gene for large coats or not. Also depends on your grooming and if you know how to groom for the show ring.

or

Bloodlines are the biggest factor then the grooming.

She must be a "purebred" pekingese, with "registration papers" and her parents "must" also be "registered and purebred". If not then you cannot show her.Your breeder you purchased her will let you know if she is a "show quality" peke and will show you proof of her registration and her parents registration and provide you with her pedigree and reg numbers. If not then you cannt show her.

thanks!
