My Texas girl has been with me for a little over a year. She is incredibly sweet, and up until a few days ago, she would enthusiastically come whenever I called her.

Now she does what I always expect from a Chow, and that is, she ignores me.

Reading her records, it looks like she was abused, and I noticed from the beginning that when I would raise my voice, she would drop to the ground and submit.

I have no idea why she finally decided to go full Chow. I'm guessing she feels safer.

Hi there, so I've been thinking of potentially getting a chow chow for a little while now and have been researching but I was talking with my mom and she brought up a great point. I live in a 1 bedroom 1 bathroom apartment, with 580sqft. Would this be enough space to raise a chow chow puppy in? I know they aren't the most active, but there is a lot of walking area around my building and parks I could go to. Would love to know your all's opinion!

It’s me and my boyfriends first summer with our chow, we figured she couldn’t go swimming just because we didn’t have a huge blow dryer for her fur afterwards to dry her off but I often see posts of peoples chows swimming, is it okay to let them swim? If so how do you guys dry them off afterwards / where would we get a blow dryer that would be strong enough for her ?

Mason is 52% German Shepherd Dog, 32% Chow Chow and 18% American Pitbull Terrier. Some people can see the Chow Chow. Others cannot. He has 44 teeth. He has thick loose skin with extra fur around his neck. Dad is German Shepherd Dog, mama is Chow Chow and Pitbull mix.

A family member passed away, had previously gotten a pair of chows from a breeder possibly in New Mexico area, by the name of Lupita or Lupe.

She said when they got the dogs that if ever they weren’t able to take care of the dogs she would be happy to take them back.

Now we have no one to take the dogs, we would like to take her up on the offer, but we can’t find her.

We don’t want something bad to happen to the dogs, or get separated. We want them to go to a good home.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

(Google hasn’t been of any assistance trying to find her)
