Overview:
The Chow Chow, an ancient breed originating from China, is easily recognized by its distinctive lion-like mane, deep-set eyes, and unique blue-black tongue. These medium-sized dogs boast a dense double coat, which can be either rough or smooth, in a variety of colors including red, black, blue, cinnamon, and cream. Known for their reserved and independent nature, Chows often display a cat-like aloofness, making them more suitable for experienced owners who appreciate a dignified companion rather than an overly effusive one. While generally calm, their protective instincts can make them wary of strangers, so early socialization is crucial. They are adaptable to apartment living due to their moderate exercise needs, but require regular grooming to maintain their coat. Potential owners should be aware of breed-specific health concerns such as hip and elbow dysplasia, and certain eye conditions like entropion.
