Description
Dog Breed: Chow Chow (long coat). Available to foster or adopt! Breed: Chow DOB: 1/2019 Gender: male Altered:yes Coat: long Size: medium Color(s): black Description: ***Needs a Foster Home*** This dog is in need of a foster home as well as a permanent home. If you are interested in fostering please fill out an online foster application. Hi, I'm Smokey, a handsome Chow in need of a new home. I was transferred from another rescue who rescued me from a LA shelter and I'm grateful to be given a chance to find my forever home. My training is impeccable. I don't try to rush out of the gate and I sit and stay until given a command. I can pull a little bit when on leash, so I will need some work on my manners while walking. I need a home with no small children. Older children who know how to be respectful may be ok. I need to be the only dog in the home and will need an experienced dog owner knowledgeable about Chows. It's unknown how I'd do with cats. If you're looking for a friendly floof ball, fill out an online application to meet me.

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.
