Description
Dog Breed: Chow Chow / White German Shepherd (long coat). TYRON is a 5 year old Chow Chow / German Shepherd who came to us when his owner’s living arrangements changed. He flunked the intake exam at several other shelters so here he is and we are still trying to figure him out. Tyron is a big boy! He doesn’t like a lot of physical touch but he LOVES his walks! Tyron will allow us to briefly brush his top line and pull out a few puffs but he is generally grumbly with handling and we fully sedated him at the vet for his spring shave. Tyron appears to want to play with other dogs and his previous owner took him to the dog park (which we don’t recommend but it does show that he may be fine living with another pup). Tyron needs an experienced dog savvy family who can work around his quirks to make him be all the dog he can be. We are looking for an adult-only home within reasonable driving distance so that we can facilitate several meet and greets and slowly integrate Tyron into your home. Tyron has been vaccinated, tested negative for heartworms and tick borne diseases, is microchipped and neutered. Please fill out an application at .CompAnimals if you are interested in providing a home for Tyron. Adoption $200.

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.
