Congratulations, Elsa is gorgeous! I'm so excited for you (and a little jealous too). Looks like Ty is enjoying having a baby sister.

Coda is adorable, congratulations. Hearing about people letting pups go to early like that is maddening but it looks like Coda has found a good home. Hopefully her siblings have as well. One point I'd like to make on the socialization, until she has all her vaccinations and boosters don't socialize ...

Pete is adorable, congratulations. I would agree with Siriol about the food, you don't want to do anything to upset Pete's tummy during the move to your home. As far as balls go, Cocoa loves squeaky balls but she doesn't fetch. She plays with them like a cat would, bats them with her paws, pounces o...

Stacey, he is just gorgeous. Typical chow, already guarding the door!

Good advice from Siriol, I don't really have anything to add, just wanted to say how cute she is.

Happy birthday Izzie.

So cute!

Thanks Nancy, that was adorable.

Okay, just throw away any advice that the "genius trainer" has given you, he is obviously an idiot. If you look through the site you will find that a lot of the members have had great success with the Easy Walk (no pull) harnesses. I used one with Cocoa from about 6 months to 2 years, she ...

I agree one hundred percent with Siriol, your puppy is just being a puppy, I would not return to those classes either. We didn't do puppy classes, just lots of socializing on daily walks, trips to the pet store and parks (although personally I don't go to dog parks but that is a whole different conv...

Sushi is adorable!

I have no idea why she would eat decomposing wood, but I know that if I let her Cocoa will strip the bark from sticks and eat it. When she gets a stick she will carry it for a bit (quite proudly, she struts when she has a stick) but then she will lie down with it and start to strip the bark, I have ...

Siriol do you give Bramble any omega 3 supplements? I give Cocoa salmon oil supplements, I stated her on them along with glucosamine/chondroitin for her joints but I think it also has improved her coat and her allergies didn't seem quite as bad last autumn. Cocoa is spayed as well.

Cocoa has been on the Taste of the Wild fish formula for the past two and a half years, she does really well on it. She was just in at the vet for her annual check up and he complimented her on her beautiful shiny coat.

Happy birthday Whitby!

Harvey is a very handsome boy, hopefully he finds a good forever home soon.
I have to agree with you and Constantina, I think chows are the best dogs as well.

Amber you really are a prima donna aren't you. You really do look like you belong on the couch though.

Ty is looking good as always.

I absolutely love the picture with both legs sticking out! Buddy used to sit like that all the time (he was a big boy too). Cocoa does the same but she will only stick out one leg or the other at a time, no preference for which leg it is, just only one.

Siriol, I have always enjoyed reading your posts and stories about your girls. I will second your opinion on Victory's advice and would add Rory's Dad and Ursa's dad to the same category.

Thanks Nancy. Cocoa is loving it, but I'm already done! :lol: It was fun yesterday when we were home to play in it but today was back to work so not so much fun. And typical to our weather around here it is supposed to start warming up and raining so we'll be slogging through slush for the next few ...

I just saw this, I'm so sorry to hear about Zoey.

It's good to see you back here Siriol. The girls are looking fabulous as always. Love that Isla is still a crazy girl, and I'm glad she didn't hurt herself too badly going after the sheep! Cocoa has no interest in the TV but my son's papillon barks every time an animal shows up on the set.

More pics.

I know for everyone back east this is probably old news but this is only the 2nd time we have had snow this winter, and the first time it didn't last long enough to play in, so for Cocoa yesterday was a very exciting day. She had a blast plowing paths and rolling around in the freshly fallen snow. h...
