Description
Dog Breed: Chow Chow (medium coat). Bear is a CLASSIC Chow Chow. This absolutely beautiful boy is loving and devoted to the people he trusts but pretty skeptical of new folks. Bear is looking for a new home who can help him continue to feel safe and comfortable in new spaces while also ensuring that he's given the space he needs as he meets new people. Bear is most comfortable when he has a social dog to help show him the ropes, so a family with a dog that loves people would be am zing for him. Bear is doing a great job with house training, but he;s still a puppy and will need a little bit of help as he transitions to the new home. If you think Bear might be a good fit for your home, stop by the adoption center to meet him and learn more!

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.
