This is horrible. I can't believe I somehow missed this post before. I hope she recovers and gets the best home ever. She definately deserves it. Our thoughts will be with her as she recovers.

I am sorry about your mom being ill and sorry that Bubba is acting up. Please do not have him put down or take him to a shelter. I am in California and not familiar with any rescues in Michigan but hopefully someone on this site will know of one. I agree with Jeff that Bubba may be acting out becaus...

A long time ago (before we had a Chow) I saw a show on Martha and her home. She not only has Chows but she also has a bunch of himilayan cats (for those not into cats, they are like persian cats but they have siamese markings). :lol: When they were talking about them they had all of the cats sitting...

Boogie is black and I am not sure if our foster chow, Teddie, is red or cinnamon. I guess I am not sure what the difference is. In pictures he looks red but I would say he is more light brown in person so I guess that would be cinnamon. He does have a black streak on his tail which is kind of differ...

I also wanted to suggest having his ears checked. Our rescue foster Teddie had ear infections in both ears and what I noticed is that he only wanted to sleep outside in the cold (and it was in the 20's here) and that he was moving his head around a lot and scratching at his head. He too would also y...

Yeah, I live up in the Northbay near Petaluma. Thanks, I would love to join Chowfest. I am not eligible for Ladies day at the beach though, Boogie and Teddie (our foster Chow) are both boys. :roll: Who knows, maybe I will have a foster girl Chow by then. :lol:

This is an awful situation. Everyone should really be mad at the people who used this poor chow to protect their drug dealing business.

Yeah, I think Boogie is just happy being the baby. The only thing he cares about is being embarrassed. As long as no one puts him in his place too much then he goes along. Once someone embarrasses him, he pouts and hides. LB just wants to be with people (and kill cats). He does play with Boogie occa...

There are live traps that you can set out. The mouse will be trapped inside a little box and then you can take him where ever you wish to release him. Also, have you tried those things that you plug into the outlets in your house? They are supposed to repel mice and other vermin from coming into you...

I am so sorry to hear that this happened. I hope she will be okay and will keep her in my thoughts.

These three have all been fixed. Boogie doesn't seem to know he is male. He doesn't do regular "dog" things. Based on the discussions about when to fix them, I think he was fixed way too early but he was from a shelter so he had to be by law. He is two but still acts like a baby. LB is a l...
