It sounds like a sharpei. Chinese, I think. Not that many of them around, but getting rapidly more popular. It would be worth checking out if they need any specialist care or knowledge though - all those folds might cause problems!

They lose most of their wrinkles as they grow, but they are classed as a guarding breed along the lines of a Rhodesian Ridgeback so are strong, determined dogs that need an experienced owner and thorough training.

IMO not the dog for a first timer.

Chinese Shar Pei. They are wonderful dogs - and Im speaking from experience here, as I had one for 11 years. They are an ancient breed, and thousands of years ago used to be the Emperor's guards (they were a lot bigger then). They were then fighting dogs, as the wrinkled skin allows them to turn their heads if bitten on the neck, and retaliate.
They are very lovable, very loyal and will guard your home fiercly. You do need to give them quite a bit of physical exercise, though, otherwise they will be very prone to ilnesses.
If you do decide to get one, let me know - I'll be glad to offer any advice/suggestions/etc :)

Oh and IF you do decide to get one, make sure there aren't too many wrinkles in the forehead/eye region, as this can cause their eyelashes to fold into their eyes and it causes them much pain.
Wrinkles wise, if they're very wrinkley, you will need to dab some baby oil on a cotton wool pad and wipe in between the folds, but thats not really too much hassle...
