Chow Chow

Chow ChowChow ChowChow Chow

Definitely one of the most impressive of all dogs, the Chow Chow is an wonderful creature with his lion-like appearance. With puppies that look like walking teddy bears, it's no wonder that the Chow is one of the most popular breeds today.

Chows make exceptional house pets. Despite their size (17-21" at the shoulder, 20 - 32 Kilograms), they are very quiet, naturally well-behaved, not diggers or barkers and aren't destructive. They're one of the easiest breeds to housebreak. Chows do, however, have a very different personality than other dogs. They are cat-like in their attitudes: aloof, reserved with affection, independent, dignified and stubborn. Although their soft fur is ripe for hugging, they don't always enjoy being fussed over by children or strangers.
