Hi Everyone,

I am hoping someone can tell if Niosa's coat is going to be Rough Hair or Smooth Hair

Ever since Niosa started shedding, She has not been fluffy like when we first got her.

I miss my fluff ball

Could this be her summer coat?

Thank You from the first time Chow owner.
You all were so helpful before....
I hope the pictures can help

mmm I'd say rough. From my experience and what I have learned... especialy from this site is it probably depends on the "line" your chow came from.
What did the mother and father look like? That is a good indication of what your pup will look like.

I am sorry to say I never seen Niosa's mom or dad, we got Niosa from the shelter.
I would say that's a good thing for us

She is a Wonderful, Loving, but she does have her days, just like her mom

Niosa is 7 months & I was told she was a pure breed, she has a nice dark blue/purple tounge.

I was told a man dropped off a whole litter, he could not handle them

Niosa was the last one their because she was sick, & was just put back out for adopting the day I went in with my son ....
We could not leave her their,

So we brought her home to leave with Ashley Her buddy... & my two older dogs total of 4 dogs & she is never bored in this house LOL......

She is a rough. Smooth Chows have no leg feathering at all.
