So my husband and I went to the Philippines to visit some of his extended family and travel around the country. While I was there I thought it would be cool to visit Tessa Alcaraz who lives in Manila with her 4 Chows - remember that great Chow family photo? Anyway she was happy to meet with us which was sooooo exciting! Tessa is doing a great job in the Philippines educating breeders about responsible breeding as well as potential Chow owners about the breed

Here are some photos from our visit:

What? We have visitors from Australia? (Cinta)

Well...I'll pretend that I'm sleeping but I am watching you .....

Great here we go - the hugs...Do I look like a toy to you! Darn foreigners

And here we are : Tessa, me (Mally), Buster and Twixie ..Cinta is watching us from the side.

Her chows are so beautiful. I remember the Christmas pic (from last year?) of her whole family, they all looked so happy and healthy.

How great to be able to meet fellow chow enthusiasts and their chows! All look very healthy and happy.

Yes it was amazing to go to another country and visit a CC.org member. Tessa was great! It's funny - I have never met her before or spoken to her but we were so comfortable talking - it's like we're one big family here at CC.org

You are so right about us being one big family here, but like real families, we also have shades of Jerry Springer episodes when we are not at our best! It is good you were able to meet and had comraderie.

You're too right Auddymay

but as you have probably realized I like to stay clear of any "family arguments"

Hi Mally!

Happy New Year!

It was great meeting you, Darren and Marcel too! I was so excited and told my other chow colleagues about your visit as well!

Hope all is well.

Hugs to Lychee!
