is this an pure chow

Post by Allan »

Hi,

I have a chow as per the breeder it is a pure chow just he did not check the pedigree of the mother.

In my heart and in my eyes, she is a pure chow maybe a late bloomer (if there's a word like that).. Because, she has its blue-black tongue (just a bit spot is pending) and its almost straight hind legs. The ears are up, but she dont have hair much yet.

And people are saying my chow is a mix.. And maybe someone here has the same issue with me that can enlighten me.

She was born Dec 05, 2021.. she is 3months old..

Nope. You can get a DNA test fairly reasonably.

That nose is pretty long for a chow. Is she supposed to be smooth? She definitely looks like a mix, so you might want to get a DNA test.

That said, she is beautiful, and I bet she is a good dog. The longer nose is an advantage from a health perspective, and the eyes won't require surgery.
