Re: Excessive lip licking

Hello long, long time no speak :) I have missed seeing your two though I have caught occasional glimpses of them on Fb through Jacquies page. How lovely to see their little faces again. I have a friend whose chow did this and it turned out it was the food. They had not changed his food but it seemed...

Re: Cleaning ears?!

I would caution against using forceps in the ear...it would be so easy to damage something. Even my vet when cleaning Izzies ear during a bad ear infection said only ever use ear cleaner, squidge it around on the outside below the ear...they usually love this bit and wipe out with a couple of cotton...

Re: Help, my chow chows hair wont grow back!

It can also depend on what stage of its cycle the hair was at when it was cut. Bramble was shaved for two leg ops....the first grew back very quickly where her short leg hair was and slowly where the longer feathers at the back are but the sort of in between length hair took far longer to grow....mo...

Re: Where have the others gone

Well as one of those who wandered off and got lost on fb it is quite a surprise (but a nice one) to see my name among those missed :) There were a few reasons I disappeared. It is hard to keep seeing the same old questions asked a million times by newbies....and yes I asked them all when I joined :D...

Unfortunately she has tried it a few times since! Every second advert at the moment has some sort of animal in it.

Re: Just popped in to say hello

lrfishwick I think there are more chows around than you realise....I found that Facebook was the best place to find fellow chow owners. If you are on there join some of the UK chow groups and just put the word out you are looking for chows in your area....you will prob be surprised. Cocoa thank you ...

I have a cream chow and my daughter has her brother and my friend has her sister and this pic shows them all at Christmas with my daughter....none had been groomed or washed for the ru-union. Our Isla is probably the greatest lover of mud I ever met in a chow but as Audey says let them dry and a qui...

I have not been on the site for some time and was so sad to see your posts in this section. I can't imagine how hard it has been to go through all these losses. I am so very sorry. There are no words for what you have had to face in the last year. :'(

Coleena I am sure your vet must be basing this dx on more than the symptoms you mention but if not have they thought of panosteitis which your pup would grow out of?

Well done you. Just keep at it. It took me a year to get six pounds of Bramble but as long as you are going the right direction that is good. Bramble has to be on permanent weight control to help protect her legs and one of the ways I do this might seem strange but when I mix her kibble with a tiny ...
