Re: Loss and Chow Chow reputation

My heart goes out to both of you; I'm sure the Chow knew you were helping her. Blessings to both.

Re: What air temperature

AAAwwwww, a six month old baby being left in the garage when you're not home? I hope she'll be OK in there when no one's home :(

Re: HELP PLEASE!!!

I know I sound like I keep repeating myself lately on the forum, but you must call their vet for help. When Shima was beating up Boo Boo, we had to keep them separated, and believe it or not, they didn't like it. But when I came home from work one day and saw that Boo's ear was bleeding (before the ...

Re: Need some advice...again.

My Shima had had an annual exam, and I told the vet how Shima was beating up Boo, and between that and her exam, she caught it. The vet palpated her abdomen and felt one side was bigger than the other, so she Xrayed her and saw the mass. Since it was pretty involved, I took her to the University of ...

Re: Need some advice...again.

Please have Gabe checked out by the vet. My Shima used to beat the stuffing out of Boo Boo, and I would dread coming home from work to see what had occurred. Turns out Shima had a benign liver mass, and she was in pain. I guess by beating Boo up she finally got my attention, and we went to the vet, ...

Re: Chow Abuse

I don't feel that any dog should be living outside most of his life because what's the point of getting him in the first place? If I found a dog with a collar too small for him and it was cutting into his neck, I would ask my friend how the adoption was going. Neutral question. Then if she expressed...

Re: Chow Coat

OMG, I can't believe how cute Truffle is! He looks just like a bear in the 2nd photo. Boo and Shima are always dry on their second coat after a bath; just the top gets wet. If Truffle doesn't have mats and he can be brushed with a pin brush, count your blessings, especially if he's not shedding much...

Re: Fun Video

So THAT'S what it looks like when I would be chasing my chows down the street! No wonder my abs hurt from laughing so hard!! That's why I've always loved Chows; they go along with the program only so far, then go off and do their own thing :D

Re: Worried

Wow, I haven't heard that before. Have you mentioned it to the vet? I've noticed the chunky monkeys' tongues turn darker after they've run around for awhile, but return to the usual color after they've cooled off. But whatever it is, your Lily is OK, so when you find out, please update with your fin...

Dog on a Brooklyn ledge

I saw this video earlier today and was so surprised that I recognized a Chow so quickly! I'm not the most tech savvy, so I hope the video link posts OK. If not, it's on Youtube with the title listed above; I found it first on MSNNOW.com. :shock: http://youtu.be/VsYZPjB2TFU

Re: My chow chow Leah

She's definitely a cutie, and looks a teeny bit shy about having her picture taken. My chows won't let me take their pics; I have to sneak and do it. Even without a flash, they turn their heads right as I click the shutter. #-o

Re: Chow panting a lot

My Chows (siblings) pant a lot due to their arthritis. When they get their Rimadyl, the panting eases. They're a lot older than your boy (13 yo) though. I sure hope your boy is just a heavy breather.

Re: Addison's Disease

PLEASE get a second opinion regarding your dog's health situation. He may have been bitten by an insect and have some reaction to it. For a dog so young to get steroid injections monthly is unusual for any breed of dog, and his sudden behavioral changes are alarming. Good luck to you and your baby, ...

Re: Expectation: Walking with him; Reality: Him dragging me

Sounds like Sparky needs schooling, as in puppy obedience classes! Chows are very strong willed, so you will be in for a bit of a rough patch. The breed is worth it, so don't give up! :)

That's great that there's less of Whitby!! I had to cut back on my Shima's intake because of her bad left back leg, and it was hard on us because she loves her food. But she did, and she limps less now.
