Yellow dogs with white faces and black tongues are generally considered to have a certain degree of specialness and rarity. This coat and tongue color combination is uncommon among Chinese Garden Dogs and is considered by some to be a unique breed or characteristic.

However, judging whether a dog is "good" does not just depend on its appearance characteristics; personality, behavior and suitability as a pet or working dog. Dogs with yellow faces, white faces and black tongues may have similar personality traits and behavioral patterns to other dogs, but each dog is a unique individual and therefore needs to be analyzed on a case-by-case basis.
