Re: what is your chow chow's weight?

This is very interesting to read since I have worried about my chow's weight. He is 41lb at 14 months and has been the same weight for the last six months now. I've been so worried i've over exercised him but he's a superfit and healthy little boy, loves running fast and jumping high in the air, and...

Re: hair loss.

Exactly the same thing happens to my chow too at times. I have been wondering about it too. Then all of a sudden it just stops. He seems totally unbothered about it.

Re: Please help: my chow bit my husband

Thank you all for your replies! It's hard to describe well an incident in just a few sentences but it's really nice to be with other 'Chowites' when in situations like this. I got home yesterday to find our Chow stretched out and relaxed by my husband's feet, who had taken the afternoon off to go ho...

Since I'm I've been at home and my husband has a heavy workload, I'm primarily the one who's brought him up, fed him, walked him, groomed him, taken him to dog training, etc. and as ...
