Dogs in China

So, let's make some sweeping generalizations and say that pet ownership, especially purebred dogs and cats, makes a statement of individualism, wealth, fashion, and/or reflects the overall economic development of a country...yes or no?

My list of observed breeds in China, most of which I didn't see 4 years ago includes:

German Shepherd

Doberman Pinscher

Rottweiler

Labrador Retriever

Newfoundland (good god, where do you keep one of those here?)

Siberian Husky (very trendy)

Collie

Chow

Boxer

Dalmatian

Shih Tzu

Pomeranian

Boston Terrier

Chihuahua

Lhasa Apso

..and probably some others I'm forgetting. So which breed do you think is most suitable for life in China...or for which province? If dog-mania continues, will China be up to its collective shoulders in dog crap? I've already had a couple of unfortunate encounters as, just as with babies and small children, peeing and crapping in the middle of the sidewalk seems perfectly natural (hey, where else can you go in the middle of the city?).
