Re: Cream chow chow nose colour

Miss Sassy is adorable! I did not know there is a supplement like that. Anyway, i know that there are several reasons the original colour could fade. First and most common reason is the weather - the nose may fade to pink during winter and get back to black during summer. Other reasons are health re...

Re: How often do they shower?

Hi. Bathing my furry baby used to be such a hustle until my friend introduced me to the http://www.petstreetmall.com/Booster-Bath/10044/1279/ The process is so much easier. I bath him once a month and especially when he has been up and about.

Re: Meet Pumpkin

I have also always had rescues, i just think it's good to give them a chance, a new life and a home. With my last it came when it was much younger so i changed the name to give it a fresh start. When it first came in it would hide under the table and wouldnt come out until it was sure there was no o...

Re: 2 puppies, should I feed big one more?

I think i would also be concerned about it becoming over weight. I know siblings can be different but one can get a little bit worried about that. Stick to designated meals and also look out for the girl. why doesn't it ever finish? Does it have any health issues or is it just a bad feeder. Feeding ...

Re: Hello From Amber - still growling and barking at new housemates

I think what you need is a proper introduction. What i do with my dogs is to leash them every time i am introducing a new person. Keep the distance obviously and calm them as you introduce them. Reward good behaviour, the calmness and all with a treat, and not the growling or barking. You could see ...

Re: Mouth cancer

Hey. I am so sorry about what is going on. If you understand the condition could be genetic and have weighed all options, I do not see a problem with breeding. It would be great to have a part of him passed on to the next generation. I hope everything goes well. You are doing a great job taking care...

Re: Pooping in cage

Sounds like a training problem and especially if there are no accidents when she sleeps in your room. Seems the change of environment with the crate affected it. Honestly am not an expert in this but i hope someone helps with this.

Re: Chows in the rain

I used to have a huge umbrella for when it rained but my little buddy did not care. He'd go running off anyway and especially if i did not have him on a leash. Seems like you have quite an amount of rainfall there. You could try and see if the umbrella works with your buddy. The summer is always so ...

Re: Blow dryer

I think it works when you start when they are young. otherwise it seems to be a lot of trouble for me and my dog. Honestly have no idea why it cant stand it. It's always tough getting him dry. Would love to get more tips as well.

Re: Bored puppy barking

I'd suggest teaching her to learn to be alone even when you are around the house. Pet toys usually help. Get her a few toys to keep her busy. Have you crate trained? That could also be a solution because it will learn that it can chill out alone.

Re: Finally got my puppy

They are adorable! Seems like they are getting along just fine. Perhaps you could separate feeding, toys etc and especially if you notice any signs of aggresion. Otherwise it is a beautiful family you've got there.

Re: Trouble bonding

Hey. I do not think you are expecting too much, i just think its too soon. Rescues go through a lot and getting accustomed to a new environment may take a while. Do not worry too much. The fact that he is getting along with your other dog is a good sign, so just continue being awesome and you'll see...

Hey all,

Hey. I am new here. I recently moved to a new neighbourhood with my husband - more space and enough time has passed since we lost our pet. We thought it is time to move on and plan on getting a Chow Chow from a rescue. I am so excited and nervous at the same time. I thought being here will help as i...
