Change of Hair/Fur Color

i juts recently noticed that there are portions of Kuma's fur that's beginning to turn black from the normal fawn. is it normal for it to change? he's only turning 7 mos. so im not sure if it's part of his growing up. also, some patches of his skin is turning darker. that's what im actually more con...

Re: Sushi will not stop biting!

TyChowGirl~ my chow usually has his zoomies at around 6-8 pm. might as well call it bad puppy o'clock. :D he hasn't attempted to nip us for the past few weeks. he probably gets tired from his early evening walk/run. but hopefully me saying that wont jinx it. #-o

Re: Potty Training Adjustment

im a first time chow owner as well but this is how i did it with my boy. his first 2/3 days in our house he pretty much did his potty in the kitchen. don't know why but that is where he preferred to do it. when i bought him his crate (to sleep in) i was surprised coz he's able to more or less contro...

Re: what is your chow chow's weight?

good thing i saw this thread. my chow had his latest vet visit and he weighed 12 kg from 9.6 3 weeks around 3 weeks ago. i thought he gained too much weight for a 4 month puppy. but reading almost all posts here i realized it's quite normal. :o

Re: Extremely hyper chow

Thank you for answering. It was actually the first time i heard of zoomies. It's actually cute until he accidentally nips someone. Last night he did again with my cousin. :roll: I think it happens everytime we all get home from work. I dunno if it excites him or what. My cousin already took him out ...

Re: Itchy Skin--Dermodex Mites?

My chow has the same problem as well. He's lost a great deal of fur on his leg coz he kept biting it every time it itches. I've heard about VCO, so you just apply it on the affected area? How about fish oil, does it help?

Extremely hyper chow

Im having a bit of a problem with my almost 4 month old puppy. He's normally calm and laid back and would just lay on the floor and sleep or chase his fur or anything that flies. But he gets this sudden burst of energy where he gets really excited and jumps or run around like a maniac. #-o About 2 w...

A chow and a toy dog

im thinking of getting another dog so my big boy won't get too bored. in his previous owner's house there were a lot of dogs (chows, spitz, husky, etc) so it must have been different for him to be by himself now. will it be ok if i bring in a smaller dog like a maltese or a bichon or a bigger one li...

Re: My big boy Kuma

thank you. i hate ticks and im sure dogs hate them even more. i gave him his frontline drop and i wonder if it's ok to use the spray one on him after a week just to make sure the ticks are gone or just wait for a month for the next drop.

Taking Puppy Out

been reading about socializing the puppy by taking it out to meet other dogs and people. my question is, when can you start really taking a puppy out for walks? coz i have been advised not to take my chow out until he's about 4 months. mine already has his rounds of 5in1 and 8in1 vaccines at 3 month...

My big boy Kuma

i've always wanted to have my own dog and immediately fell in love with how a chow chow looked like while i was searching for a breed to get. i've read that they can be pretty affectionate when properly taken cared of and trained. let's see. so i brought Kuma home almost 3 weeks ago and he's now 3 m...

Re: New Member and First Time Chow Owner

thank you Rory's Dad. we tried putting a bandana on him yesterday but my stubborn big boy slumped his whole body on the wet part of our garden instead. so yeah his neck fur was dry but his stomach and pretty much everything else was wet. :lol:

Right now i'm having difficulty with his fur c...
