Most probably you've bought a 50% Chow. Anyway, I hope it does not present a problem?
there is a white spot of fur on his forehead. Where does that come from? Probably from Dodo's dad.
Very hard to judge because the photo is so large. However there are two types of chow with their hair/fur differs. One has long fur , the other has short fur. Sometimes, it shows as a recessive gene.
I would love to have a smooth coated chow.

Well, Ionutt, you seem to have got yourself a little problem here. Sorry but I do not think Dodo is a chow judging from the photos and your English explanation. The ears are far too long for a chow and chows don’t have light coloured or almond shaped eyes. Chows' eyes are round like chocolate buttons. Also, to be sure what you are caring for is a chow take a look at its tongue. Only true Chows and Tsar Pei (Chinese relatives) have a blue/black tongue so if your new dog has a pink tongue then it is definitely not a chow!! Your photo of Dodo's Mum is 100% a Chow like mine and like many you will see in the photos on this site. Dodo's dad is a chow but not 100%, he has the same longish ears as Dodo and his face and nose are longer than the usual flat faces of chows. I believe that what you have got is a short haired dog possibly born of two Chow parents, one of whom is not totally chow, hence the strange appearance which could possibly be due to a gene mutation. Yes, there are completely white and completely black chows. I find your cry for help a little vague as on the one hand you show us Dodo and pictures of his "Mum and Dad" yet on the other hand, you say you bought Dodo from a neighbour :?: :?: :?: When you say Mum and Dad for Dodo, do you mean that they are not actually his parents but other pets living in the same house with you and you call them that because he is a puppy :?: :?: :?: In my opinion, whatever it is, it is a life that needs care and love, so instead of breaking your neck trying to figure out what or who Dodo really is JUST GIVE HIM A GREAT BIG HUG!!
Loving a Chow means never having to say your'e sorry.

Hi , the dodo's mom and dad is his really parents, only Dodo live in my house, she have the tongue blue in a 40-50% procent , i don't care, because i love him very very much, but i'm curious how Dodo will look when it grow up. When i tell you about sister , i want to know if is posible : MOM ( ORANGE ) + DAD (ORANGE ) = Puppy ( WHITE ). Maybe Dodo's mom became pergnant with other dog, not dodo's dad .

I'm not expert but my personal impression is he's little part chow and looks have corgi in him. He's so adorable and very sweet dog!
