Re: CHOWS AND CATS/KITTENS
Ming will try and chase any cat when we're outside, but in the house she leaves our cat alone and hardly acts on his presence. Even outside she will run up to him, sniff him, and then walk away. That being said we have had this cat for about 8 years, and Ming for a couple months, so as a "newco...

Re: Ming the Chow Chow :)
Thanks for the warm welcomes :) So today is the first "real" snow of the winter (Dutch winters are so inconsistent! Went from 15 degree Celsius to minus 5 in a weeks time) and I took a walk with my three doggies this morning. My Spanish rescue dog (also an old lady, about 10 years old) was...

Re: Grooming 101

Re: Grooming 101
Thanks so much for your advice! I do have an undercoat rake, that one still belonged to Robin's mom back in the day, and I have been using that one on her but apparently all wrong! I was just combing in the direction of the hair grain, which seemingly already hurt enough as it is. I do think I know ...

Re: Ming the Chow Chow :)
Definitely! My boyfriend obviously still sees her a lot and that makes her very happy. I always heard that chows typically bond with one person of the family, and the rest they just kind of tolerate, but she is actually very fond of every person in the household and is very social towards people, sh...

Ming the Chow Chow :)
So, besides my cry for help in the grooming area I thought I'd post a little intro with a picture of my Ming :) She was the dog of my boyfriends mother, but sadly she passed away five years ago. She was then staying with my boyfriend and his father but let's just say they weren't equipped to take ca...

Grooming 101
Hello all! So, my Chow Chow has quite a history to her name. She was owned by my boyfriends mother, led a happy life, balanced diet and was regularly groomed. Unfortunately my boyfriends mother passed away five years ago, and since then she had been staying with my boyfriend and his father. They wer...
