Description
Dog Breed: Chow Chow (long coat). Leela was surrendered to a shelter due to her family moving out of the country. She just arrived into rescue but this is what we know so far. She lived with another dog and is currently being fostered with two dogs. She also lived with children. Leela is not dog reactive while walking on leash. She has a very calm demeanour. She is potty trained to go outside, non destructive when left alone and has patiently let her amazing foster mom bath her and groom out several knots! The shelter staff said she was a very good girl for their vet when having her blood drawn for a heartworm test. She tested negative. We will update her profile as we learn more about this lovely girl. ***Leela will see the vet this week for an assessment on her eyes! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We only respond to serious inquiries.

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.
