That is funny! We have never seen that before (I hope Mai Tai dosen't browse the site for ideas). If it was up to Mai Tai she would have us trained to let her out for 15 min. every hour. And I mean EVERY hour.

Bear and Mai Tai are "flippers" too. We call this part of their "energy burst". They run around the house then back and forth then grab a toy and flip it high in the air and then body slam it shoulder first and wrestle it in their mouths on their backs - legs in the air while twi...

There is contact info on the Wisconsin Chow Chow Club site for breeder referrals at http://www.chowwelfare.com/wcci/index.htm . I must say though, and please don't misunderstand me on this, but I don't think you will find what you are looking for this way. The reason I say this is that I have met so...

Taz - I may be wrong but it seems that alot of Chow pups tear when they are young. Our Bear did that until she got older. It dose not look like entropion because the eye is wide open. Mai Tai on the other hand, had severe entropion where her eye was closed. We have since had that corrected.

Judy - Do you not have a rule here. They're not DOGS they're CHOWS. I thought you taught us that there is a difference. (Just poking fun) I love the pictures. I wish we could have a partner for Mai Tai - but she's a handfull by herself. :D

Your welcome to anything I post here of course. I'll also look around my collection for more. Is there any special theme or subject you would like in particular? Mai Tai is not the most cooperative model so most of the pictures I take are by luck.

Mai Tai's Snow Pics

Hello everyone! Mai Tai is having a wonderfull time in the snow here in the midwest. She loves to romp around and then the brisk air gives her an energy burst and she bites at the snow and buries her face in it. It is quite hillarious to watch. To those of you who are envious of the snow - you are w...

Our Bear's dad Ming was 80 lbs but her mom was only 40. Bear and Mai Tai (both females) are around 40 lbs. I think the boys seem to double the girls in weight - but I'm not saying that's the rule. Just seems to be common.

Other people (besides Martha) are known for Chows. Such as President Calvin Coolidge - who had a Chow named Timmy in the White House 8) - and Sigmund Freud. Chows were also very (too) popular with Hollywood celebrities at least twice (1930's & 1980's I think) which lead to unscrupulous breeding ...

Our Bear's tongue was dark blue at birth and her gums were also black. Mai Tai on the other hand has a lighter blue tongue and pink gums. I wonder if the reason is that Bear was black and Mai Tai is blonde/cream? :?
