I had to post at least one more picture of my "low-rider" chow. :lol: His new mom knows she's very lucky to have my little guy! She's been having some depression issues and says that when she looks at him, she can't help but smile. (Who couldn't love that face?) So, I really think they're ...

This was taken the day AWOL went home with his new owner. Hope it posts ok.

Well, as much as I absolutely hated to, I had to find a new home for AWOL. By accident, he & Asa got together early one morning and I (half-asleep at the time) stepped in to seperate them. AWOL was outside and I thought the door was closed as I was dragging Asa downstairs. However, AWOL got in &...

They're both fixed as is Asti, their "sister". So now that the incident is over, shouldn't Asa be over the whole thing? Or is he just trying to show that he's the alpha? AWOL doesn't start anything with Asa, but if Asa mouths off, AWOL doesn't back down, at least vocally. I'm afraid to let...

Thanks everyone for your advice. I really appreciate it and also knowing I'm not the only one with difficult kids. When I first got AWOL, there was a period of adjustment, but then they got along fine. There were no problems until this neighbor and their dogs came into the picture. And wouldn't you ...

Thanks for your help and suggestions. I wanted to use the hose, but it wouldn't reach! I really, really did not want to hit either of them, but in the heat of the moment, I just wanted to break them up. I actually have tried to break up fights by reaching in, but suffered the consequences when I got...

Last Sunday morning, my 2 male chows, Asa & AWOL, got in a nasty fight. The neighbor behind me has 2-3 dogs that everytime they see my dogs, they start barking like crazy, which gets my 3 going. Trying to be a good neighbor, I always call mine back inside. Well last Sunday, they were just ignori...

What a fantastic idea! I think the price is fine. I haven't been online for awhile, but I thought about you all so often. A calendar is a perfect way to feel connected all the time. You certainly have my permission if you want to use any of my gang. AWOL was a rescue, although he isn't pure chow (he...

Oops, forgot to add AWOL's picture!

This is my beloved Tia & I. Tia passed away in May,2005. http://i91.photobucket.com/albums/k293/Goodtia/meTiac.jpg This is a highly unusual sight. Asa & Asti lying quietly together! http://i91.photobucket.com/albums/k293/Goodtia/IMAG0022.jpg And last, but not least, AWOL. This was when he &a...

There is a Chow breeder in eastern Iowa and their website is http://www.agreatdog.com. There's also one in Ankeny, IA, but I don't recall their name right now. If I think of it or can find it, I'll let you know.

OMG, I'm so sorry this has happened! My thoughts and prayers are with both families. There never seems to be any words to appropriately convey how much one's heart breaks when someone else has to live through something like this. I wish I could take the sorrow from your hearts, I wish I could bring ...

I've had AWOL for about 2 months now. He's such a little sweetie! It still amazes me what might have happened to the little guy if I hadn't taken him in. And just because he's part chow! He and Asti play great together outside, but she's so jealous/insecure inside that she'll attack him. She even do...

Here's a picture of Asa with his cast. He had torn his cruciate and had to have it repaired. The other picture is of AWOL. I finally was able to get a picture of him without him coming towards me. http://i91.photobucket.com/albums/k293/Goodtia/IMAG0024.jpg http://i91.photobucket.com/albums/k293/Good...

Neat topic. I have to say that I like different names (as you'll see). Tia Che-Ching - Tia, because I liked the sound of it, Che-Ching, because I wanted something Chinese sounding and also because I won the money that paid for her at a casino. Hence, the CHE-CHING part. She died May,2005. Asa - is J...

Springfield, OH sounds ok for me. That's if I have or can get that weekend off. I'm not too sure about bringing all 3 of my kids, but I'd also hate to leave any one of them home, too. Hopefully, Asa will be fully recovered from his cruciate repair so he can romp with all the others. I think it will ...

I'm so very sorry for your loss! As the others have said, we've all gone through what you're feeling now. Take comfort in knowing that you gave Tinker a wonderful life that was filled with love. As far as getting another chowkid, you'll know when it's the right time. It's different for everyone and ...

That weekend and Indy sound fine to me. I'll try my best to be there also. I have to work some Saturday mornings and won't know if it's that one till later. I think it will be a blast!

Well, it is a torn cruciate. I was so hoping that the dr was wrong! He's scheduled for the surgery on Monday. Thank God I work there as the surgery isn't cheap! Oh well, I'd do whatever it takes to help him. It's going to be interesting around here for the next couple of weeks, with 2 other dogs aro...

I'm so very sorry for your loss. It's so hard when one of our "kids" passes away. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

He is so beautiful! I'm jealous, I want to be holding him and cuddlling with him! Enjoy your beautiful boy.

Yesterday morning I let Asa & Asti out and when they came back in about 45 minutes later, Asa was limping. He was holding his left rear paw up. Since he did it all day and acted like it hurt to sit/lay down, I took him to the vet. The bad news is, the dr thinks has a torn cruciate. Since Asa isn...

I LOVE it, JerryO! Lowrider chow! Thanks, I think he's pretty cute, too. You should see him playing with Asti. Of all the things to play with, their favorite thing is an old sock! If I'd known that beforehand, I coulda saved myself a lot of money on toys! :lol: It was really funny when he got it stu...

They are just beautiful! I loved the picture of Orah with the bone (stick?) hanging from her mouth. Awol does that too. He also loves belly rubs. The only problem is that he wants to lick you while he's getting it! I'm so happy for you that you have your girls. Sasha is happy too,knowing that you ha...

Sorry, I'm just now seeing this, I've been offline for awhile. A midwest chowfest sounds fantastic! My 3 and I would love to come. I think I'm going to need a bigger vehicle though! I also hope Asa and Awol are getting along better by then. Just let us know when and where!
