Re: Phillippines

So glad to here you and all your loved ones were spared. Prayers for all who are struggling to gather their lives back together. I now know the weather is not kind to your homeland and the earth gave part of your country a shaking only days before the storm. So sad that just the wrong choice of word...

Re: alternate pooping spot when rains

I have seen photos of and read about people training their Puppy Chows to use a Cat litter box. I have not looked at the articles in the training Forum but you might try there. DrewBear's suggestion of doing a Google search for a Youtube video is helpful, there is something for everyone there. Long ...

Re: Mark Twain

Yes it is strange, the way this played out and I now know that I was not as good at handling the thought of loosing another one in less than three months time and just wanted it to end.

Re: FOUND A CURE FOR MING'S STORM TERRORS?

Have you thought about sharing a few shots of Ouzo with Ming as the storms approach, if Ming won't take any at least one of you can calm your nerves. Hope you do not have to use the W.C. during one of the storms since you boarded things up. While you are here in the U.S. for your conferences you sho...

Zoey biopsy results

Growth on the tongue is Melanoma. A chest X-Ray will be done next week to see if Cancer had spread to Lungs. A consultation with an oncologist will occur to discuss a vaccine. There is no cure there is only management to extend life a little longer. Chemotherapy does not work well when mucus membran...

I do not see unfriendliness here and think the responses are honest. I would rather hear people speak their mind than j...

My apology to all for the time you spent reading my Post and expressing your heart felt emotion for my premature posting of what I thought was a no win situation for Zoey. Read my Post "Mark Twain" on the Community Forum.

Re: Found a Chow, and the shelter plans to kill her.

State Farm Insurance allows Chow Chows to be covered on a home owners policy. I agree Post is confusing, maybe details were left out. Some Municipalities have restrictions on type and number of pets. Condominium Associations often have restrictive rules on number and size of Pets in a Multifamily dw...

Just like Abby, here today gone tomorrow. Zoey went in for an over due Dental, they found a growth on the back end of her tongue. It was too late the Cancer must have already spread through her. Zoey was not as lucky as Junipers Chow Chow, hers was caught in time apparently. Almost two years ago, Zo...

Re: Walt Disney had a Chow Chow

Good to hear your idea for a Chow Chow News Letter has become a reality. I recall you were looking for contributions in the way of articles as long as they are informative and related to the subject of the Breed. :)
I hope the Titanic Chow Chow was taken to safety on a life boat. :(

Zoey's condition worsened through the day. Just like Abby last September things progressed rapidly, I do not have to wait for the biopsy report. Zoey lived a long life for a Chow, she is no longer in pain, she runs free with Kamie, Leo and Abby. O:)

Dental appointment

Yesterday Zoey had a dental check-up. The Veterinarian called me during the procedure while Zoey was sedated to tell me they found a growth near the back end of her tongue. The growth was removed to be sent to a Pathologist to determine if it is Cancerous. Zoey had not had a Dental cleaning for five...
