Re: puppy squeaks when i am not with her

Pretty much like Cam said, ignore it, as long as you know she is not injured or stuck somewhere, she is just trying to get your attention. A quick glance over your shoulder to check, once she is quiet walk towards her, if she starts the noises again, stop walking and look away from her, she will soo...

Re: Is it normal for 8week chow pup to wee so much

Like Sirchow said, the vast majority of vets get their nutrition advice from big commercial food companies and will readily accept their word as gospel, shame as a lot of silly problems can be alleviated by a good food. There are excellent foods out there that are not advertised to death on the tv. ...

I too would suggest a trip to the vets, my breeder also told me to use Royal canin, but me being me I changed that as soon as was humanly possible.

Re: Deer antler

Deer antler contains calcium too Cam!!!! They are technically a bone, they just don't splinter like skeletal bones.

Re: Pup biting cats legs and tails

Constant supervision, is the only real answer. I have four Ragdoll cats and Rio will leap on them, but has now learnt (after 5 months) that he has to be gentle with them. He has been swiped at by two of our girls, and knows to stay clear of them if they start hissing. He 'plays' with one of our boys...

Rio loves deer antler. I don't give him regular bones so use antler as an alternative 'bone'.

Re: Getting a puppy with 9 month old Chow

I would say as long as the early days are supervised then the younger the better, your boy is still young enough to play and frolic with a puppy.

Re: Deer antler

Rio will need a new one soon as he has gnawed the edge of the one he has, it has done him for over a month so I guess it was good value (only cost £5) have spent more on toys that he turns his nose up at!!!!!

Buy a ps3 Fozzbear and get yourself a copy of any of the Resident Evil games, good stress relief, nothing better than using a grenade launcher of heavy machine gun to kill the undead!!!!!

Re: To neuter or not?

I too have to begin the search for a vet that knows about Chows and anaesthetic, Rio has just turned 7 months and he should be 'fixed' I am terrified of him going under as I have heard some truly heart-breaking stories. I will get him done as I believe it is best to have them neutered if you do not ...

Deer antler

I know a lot of you give bones to your Chowdren but I chose to give Rio deer antler instead, they seem to be more durable than regular bones and don't splinter as easily, just wondered if anyone else had given these instead. ( yes I know they are technically a bone )

That must have been some severe medical condition to fully shave a dog let alone a Chow. Maybe whatever the problem was is intefering in the re-growth.
