BURP!

I have an absolutely lovely, friendly red 3 year old chow named Ruby. I guess she is actually a strawberry blonde, as her father was red and her mother was cream. Ruby has always had the habit of coming up to me and burping after she eats her meal, which I find very funny. This morning she didn't se...

My girl had a grand mal seizure

On Thanksgiving afternoon one of my dogs went into my small back yard and started barking like crazy (she's not a chow) so I went to check and her red chowchow sister, who is 3 1/2, was having a grand mal seizure. She was on the ground on her side, twitching and slobbering and barely conscious. She ...

Re: Ruby is trying to go walk-about!

Thank you for the reply I had a feeling that this was just Ruby's chowchow nature. At least she is slow and stops to greet other walkers at the park so I can always catch her. I live in an urban neighborhood so my dogs are leashed even the 15 feet to the car. I love our off leash dog park and if Rub...

Ruby is trying to go walk-about!

I need a little advice. My almost 3-year-old red chow girl tries to take off when we go to our local dog Park. The park is large and off leash and she has been going there since she was nine weeks old. She is spayed. We were just there and after walking about 10 minutes she turns around and looks at...

World's friendliest chow?

Before I got Ruby, who is now two years old, over the years I had two rescue chows, who were elderly, grumpy, and aloof. I always thought chows were naturally aloof, one person dogs. I truly believe in "used" dogs and have had many hairy rescued dogs, but there are rarely any young chows i...

I need post patella surgery advice

Hello I am the proud owner of beautiful Ruby, my 22 month old light red chow girl, who is now recovering from knee surgery three weeks ago. (See the "My baby is a lemon" post on this forum). She had her slipped kneecap, or patella, replaced back on her knee and pinned and the ligaments hol...

Re: My baby is a lemon

Wow, and I thought my Ruby had health problems. I am so sorry for your little puppy. As I said before, the smartest thing I ever did was get health insurance on her when she was nine weeks old. The breeder was Canadian so I don't know if there is any organization I can report her to. I know her sist...

Re: I have a new chow puppy

Here she is yesterday. All my pix are around 500KB but this one is 150KB. How does one size them to 15K, per terms of use?
