Re: Tips on choosing a breeder / puppy

Thanks for your reply. Although this is just you and doesn't represent everyone, 6 pups from top breeders and 2 of them developed elbow dysphasia and etropism, that's a very high percentage. May I ask were they expensive to treat? Both were at least 10 years ago. Etropism was not expensive...probab...

Re: Tips on choosing a breeder / puppy

Hi guys, we are looking to get a chow chow puppy and I have done a little research on the breed. Apparently they are prone to hip, knee, elbow and eye problems genetically.

Re: Male Chow Weight

I have an 8 month old Chow Chow, the 5th of my lifetime. For their size, I have found that they are not big eaters overall and plateau/level off somewhat in their eating at about the 4 month period after that initial huge growth spurt.

Re: ADVICE NEEDED ON NEUTERING MY BABY

Laura's reply is dead on. I know this is painful, but you really need to deal with getting the husky pup out of your home now for everyone's sake if aggression by Jayce is the norm toward him. I say that as an owner with a 4yr old male Siberian and an 8 month old male chow in my house that I have wo...

Re: Is my dog a chow?

I bought him when he was 2 months old a pet store, where they gave me an option to process tge puppy's paper or to get the puppy cheaper without papers.

I don't think it's uncommon. Our young boy has it. I like to think of it as a reminder of his dad, a black chow. Mom was a red.
