Re: Question for folks who use Flea/tick protection
To my understanding comfortis only kills fleas for 24 hours and that's it. It more for if yr dog has a lot of fleas on him. My vet said it only works 24 hours it's not a monthly treatment Comfortis is a monthly treatment for fleas...if there is a heavy infestation that's consistent it will only las...

Re: Question for folks who use Flea/tick protection
I use Interceptor for heartworm & primarily for roundworms-Sheena gets 'em from stepping on fresh bird poop and catching/eating wild birds. Before I go camping I give her Comfortis. More expensive but less harmful I believe. Both my chows got itching problems from Advantage and Frontline. Troy h...

Re: Dealing with loss...
So sorry to hear about your loss of Cooper. I still mourn over my chowboy Troy (who attempted to bite me out of the blue and when I took him to the vet and found he had every right to bite-he was in enormous pain from cancer that had not been discovered previously). I still mourn periodically for an...

Avalon was an absolutely beautiful red chow-chow. Thank you for posting Avalon's picture. The look Avalon gives is so peaceful and settling, so all-knowing. The mutual love shows thru. I'm glad you both had the opportunity to share each other's company in life and now in spirit.

This is the only place I can come to lament about the loss of my Troy de Bad Boy. I have difficulty looking at any pics of black chow-chows w/o falling apart. I feel like he just left this morning. My heart feels so empty. Although I have Sheena, thank goodness, to enjoy my time with...Troy, well, ...

I infrequently enter this website. Saddens me to hear that your beloved Wolfie died. Any idea why he died? Now why Zoe is rubbing her back where Wolfie died, could be a coincidence but I would think that maybe some kind of weed grows in that area at a certain time of the year? Hopefully, it is not a...

Yes, I definitely agree with Karen, see a vet.

If it's a fungus only an antibiotic specific for the fungal infection will truly get rid of the problem. Please take Lara to the vet.

Re: Breathing Problems, and Loud Snoring
Snoring...I've gotten used to the loud snoring for 6 years that my Sheena's been with me...however, Sheena is now 9.5 years old. Sometimes Sheena likes to sleep with her chin raised on a pillow, sometimes her entire head is on the pillow...which stops her snoring and then I don't need to wear any ea...

Re: Treats, Which do you use? Healthy
My Sheena will only eat "Happy Hips" dried chicken breast strips w/Glucosamine/Chondroitin or Flax Seed and Vitamins...also dried duck breast strips (can't remember the brand name). She snubs her nose at anything else. She has cultured tastes apparently!

Re: Chow Chow Rescue Sierra Foothills
Thank you Zhuyo's Mom. It does bring a smile to my face that they no longer take in chows. I am glad that they still do some assistance in helping chow-chows since it is much needed. I am sad to hear that Tim's health is not well and hope it improves.
Thank you for the post.
