I think you mean "peke face." So a peke face Persians have the very flat face that resemble Perkingese dogs. Half peke face would not be as flat as the peke face. A doll face refers to the original breed of Persians where they do not have the extreme variation of the flat face. I'm not sure about the moon face, however. From the picture of Kitty, she looks to be half peke. She has a flatter face, but not extremely flat. She is gorgeous!
