ALL ABOUT LIVING WITH CHOW CHOW DOG

- Chow chows are devoted to and protective of their families. To make them good family pets, they need plenty of early socialization including exposure to children. Chow chows do best with training to clarify their position in the family or they can become dominant. Despite the challenges of training, some chow chows compete and do well in obedience and agility.
Grooming varies with the coat type. A rough-coated chow chow does best with a daily grooming to keep him free of tangles. Smooth-coated dogs can be groomed briefly once or twice a week. Special attention should be paid to keeping the eyes and the facial folds clean because the profuse coat can retain dirt and debris.

I loved my chow, Onyx. He was such an a-hole. He ignored Obedience trainers, run in and out of my mom's bedroom just because she'd yell at him. All with what looked like a smile. He was my puff baby. I miss him dearly.
lmao @ Kaisha Washington
No one ask
Hahaha that’s awesome
Sorry for your loss.
I'm with you. My first one was an absolute terror in the best possible way: Would not let anyone stand or sit or come between us in any way. And all I ever had to do was point at a person and say 'bad' and she would go after them if need be.
My second one, sort of totally different but has mastered the art of being passive aggressive and I love it. All I ever heard about was how difficult they are but I haven't experienced it that much and I wouldn't even consider any other breed now.
They are the most misrepresented, most misunderstood breed. The truth is they are highly intelligent, they don't just give up their love and trust to anyone, you have to gain it. They are super easy to train, our boy came toilet trained, never had an accident, never damaged or chewed anything, they won't steal food or get on furniture, the fur don't get on you , it has to be brushed out, we brush our boy about an hour each day, then a trip to groomers once every 3 to 4 months. Best decision we have made getting our chow chow, they don't smell, they are clean, have the perfect energy for our family with work etc
Yep much like the Shar Pei which are related and I own.
This woman nailed it, there’s something about Chows. They just understand the world around them
Potty training is a breeze. When my 6 year old was 8 weeks he went inside once, I literally asked him not to do it again and he hasn’t.
Don’t have to worry about him getting into the trash. It’s true what she says, you tell them the limits and they just get it.
Such wonderful doggos
Chows are great, they're independent enough that they're more like roommates lol. Roommates with maintenance 😂
That's a good way of putting it!! Clean, low maintenance!!
@@gordonames1892 that's funny.
Exactly super quiet roommates who only object when people who aren’t invited pop up 😂😂😂
Roommates that need to get a job! 😂 I have 2 of them
One of our Chows was a couch potato!! When his Mama was gone, he made sure her couch was nice and warm!!
I just lost my Chow Chow 6 months ago. I miss him so much. He was truly my best friend. He never left my side. There is s huge hole on my heart that will always be there
Good bye my little boy..
Sorry mate, sure hope you get another little fluff ball
This descibes my chow Toshi to the T. He just passed and watching this made me feel a little better. I miss him tremendously. He was my best friend and the best boy.
I absolutely loved my red chow chow, male. His name was Pooh Bear and he lived till he was fifteen years old. He was kind and gentle, he loved to be kissed on top of his head and I would talk baby talk to him. I hope to find him in Heaven, I would love to have him around all the time.
She is exactly correct on every description about them.
I've had 2 cream females. 1st lived awkwardly from 07/03/03 - 07/17/17.
2nd one is 5yrs old now.
I've noticed both are similar in demeanor ans easiest to potty train. My 2nd one trained the very 1st night semi Truck at 6weeks old. She NEVER pee'd or shit in my truck and I could leave a box of Chester's chicken on the floorboard between the sets, come back 2hrs later and it's all there.
My 1st would not accept food from any friend or stranger unless I said it was OK!
My 2nd one is a great watch dog and is built muscle wise like a male. 60lbs and beat up a full grown Rottweiler by going fire his paws...
SHE'S 1000% RIGHT ON SOCIAL INTERACTION WHEN THEY'RE LITTLE.
and smart as hell!!! They are!!!!
I told my 1 yr old puppy she couldn't have a splash of milk in her bowl (her treat) because we ran out of milk. She went over to the trash bend, put her nose just inside it, NODGED the empty milk jug and looked back at me to go get it out for her !!!!
[ I'm not kidding, that's how smart they're]
Do not hurt him in any way. Unintentional or not. Chows will remember it. A doctor took my dogs temperature in his bottom. My chow never let me touch his bottom again. Same with his nails. My wife cut too deep. Now he won't give us his paws. Socialize him at a very young age and often. Don't worry about keeping them away from germs. It's rare. Let every person in the family handle them at a young age. Try to not let him get attached to one person.
I have a red Nikki too! She's my heart!
Chow is a great breed! I love my 2 chows so much! They are 65 & 80lbs of floof!
You should get a DNA check for your dogs. I’d be curious, because Chows are supposed to weigh half that much. I’m not saying it matters! But if you paid thousands of dollars for the dogs, you may want to do that DNA check. MHO: used dogs make the best dogs! Adopt, dont shop! 👍😊👍
Chows are great. They are so protective and would risk their life for their owners. I've had chows and mixes for over 25 years. I love them. They are always looking out for you
Growing up these were the dogs that everyone in the hood had before pitbulls became popular
I would rather have a chow maybe a merle one. I know they don't come in merle I was just saying.
@@Makairl lol why would Merle be a something your so keen on merle is a genetic weakness.
@@olihallam9667 I didn’t know that the Merle was a genetic weakness. I’ve never hear of this. I thought Merle was just a coloration. Is that true? I’m very curious, thank you.
When was this and where?
@@bmell1252 Yes there is a high prevalence of blindness and deafness in merle dogs.
Chows are some of the best guard dogs out there. Nobody takes them serious as guard dogs because of there almost comical appearance but they are called the lion dogs for a reason.
If an intruder comes in the house at night, the sound of that growl, is more like a rumble, will scare the shit out of them!!
CHOW CHOW IS A GREAT BREED 😊 MOST ADORABLE AND FLUFFY DOG 😊
I loved my chow so much still miss him 🥺 he was only 11 months old and he loved me so much... Now i have second chow baby ❤️
Chow Chow dogs are so muscular, yet full of fluffy cuteness!
I had a chow-chow mix with a German Shepard as she was amazing caring dog and good protector
I had a chow x shepherd too. A male. A one person dog and incredibly protective.
@@Msspinnerb8 I bet!
Chows are the best, have had Chows for over thirty years
Same here, now have a rescue female, we live across the street from 2 schools. Like the lady said I'm known as CoCo's owner. Children 8 years latter see her and rush over to see her. She considers all of them her friends. She is our 5th Chow and I finally perfected socialization and no jumping.
In the 1980s I had a red male chow who was 75 lean pounds. Of course his name was Chubacca aka Chuy. Great guard dog and companion.
This really made my day😁 That was very informative, and very spot on about the Chow Chow Breed! Thank you so much!
Hi -thank you for your documentary. I had a chow chow, my last dog. I loved Sam, he was the best. Sam=> Spirited Always Moving.🤗
When I was a kid the Chow Chow I remember seeing in my dog encyclopedia didn’t look like this, with the face to the point you can’t see the eyes. I’m 38 yr now, I don’t like so much how the dogs have progressed. So many dog breeds have changed drastically in some way. If people like it though that’s great.
the best dog in my opinion is the Chow they make wonder family guardian dogs they are amazing guard dogs very smart and can work out things without being told if raise with love and kindness they don't need training to be a good guardian, they just know what to do and when to do their job other wise very laid back and all ways observant. they are a good judge of people. they need consistency and a strong person that lets them be who they are yet don't let them get away with bad behavior. they wont or at least none I've known would take food from a stranger making them hard to poison. best babysitters when you have children. as with any dog children must be taught how to treat them. my guard dog now is a golden retriever mix he's 17yrs So am looking to find a chow to start the next chapter and I'd like Rylee to meet the one that will become the next guardian. I very much want another Chow. Golden's are awesome but the chows i love everything about them always will. Owning a golden i can tell you the vets are right they bite more often then any other dogs I've ever owned. Still love my Ry he's very intelligent he would have made an awesome service dog. in away he was he picked up Dixie's toys an put them away when I'd ask him too. she's a tiny 4lbs chihuahua his best friend. lol Thanks for sharing :) ♥
I Really love dogs and I think your Videos are brilliant
I have 2 chow chows a male and female chow they never tear up the house they are great but they are territorial.and they dont like strangers.
I like this video when it comes to someone new about to own a chow
I LOVE chows. I had one growing up....infact me and that dog grew up together as my mom got her for me when i was 1. She was my nanny dog and was an amazing girl. Infact she was so well mannered that my grandpa once borrowed her from my mom one day to show his girlfriend what a good dog looked like. She had a great dane that was just a mess for lack of better terminology. She died when I was 14 but she was the best dog.
Great video! Interview Liz Palika on living with english shepherds!😍
I’m waiting for my 3rd chow to be born and I’m still missing my 2 before immensely, everything you said was true and I completely agree, except they’ve been around over 3000 years as far as I knew lol 😻✌️best friends that you can get and I’d never own any other breed
They are like the love child of care bears with care bear cousin lion
Love this kind of videos! Thank you!
Most beautiful dog here in Chelsea.. a chocolate chow with lighter brown highlights
Thank you so much for this information Dogumentary and young lady.
I WISHD ID HAD 6 CHOW CHOWS
OMG, they look like puffy teddy bears. So cute. =D
And their tongues are purple! I've never seen a dog with a purple tongue before. How does that happen? Were they bred for purple tongues? What purpose did that serve?
There are several animals with purple tongues. Giraffes have purple tongues. And the Shar-Pei breed has a purple tongue. It isn’t bread into them.
@@rodneydecormier1504 Why are their tongues purple, but most other breeds are not? =o
@@Loopy_Kick ancient dna that was preserved in the breeding. The breed is at least 8,000 yrs old.
Like people have said they are not the only breed with a black tongue but there the the only breed with an entirely black mouth gums and all.
In ancient times, it was believed the black tongue would ward off evil spirits.
I have a big chow she listens to me all the time but I hate seeing dead rabbits and squirrels by the door
Gifts! Oh I remember Onyx's gifts. Everything I did not want. Snakes lizards, mice...my neighbor's bra😒...yayy!!☹
I had two chows...they were pussycats
I love Chows, although in the low maintenance smooth variety since I don't like to do the grooming required of the rough. They're so independent, not needy, suspicious of strangers, territorial and totally loyal and protective of their owners and property. They're friends, not babies.
i feel bad i was thinking about getting a chow chow i love!!!!!!!!!!!!!! them they're little puff babys when they're puppys
I've seen this one before
They are pretty tough dogs, definitely mean. They were Chinese fighting dogs
Is this a re upload? Im sure i have heard that lady say the same thing on a previous dogumentary
They are both beauties, the blue though omg lol, I'v had 2 blues and now have a cinammon. Your video was great and very informative unlike a lot of the other "OMG the fluff ball is cute" videos. Of the 3 i have had they were never allowed in the kitchen, would let strangers in the house if no one was home....but they wouldn't let them leave lol, Food wise all were very picky and I had to change it up from time to time, none of them would eat dry food, it was raw for a bit or i would boil a chicken and mix in rice, eggs vegies and fruit that had to be pureed or canned, the guy I have now is such an asshole when it comes to food he will literally look at the bowl then at me and walk away lol if it's not what he wants. Again great video and a great breed if you have the time and patience. Chow Chow !!
We used to feed our Chows beef hearts. So good for their coats.
i just loss my chow three weeks ago and i'm just lost,. we have two new chows coming and can't wait their names are going to be rufus and reba,..
Hope they are 2 rescues. My current and last are both rescues!
Awww I’m sorry ☹️
This seems like information specific to HER dogs
Well, coming from someone who breeds and shows the breed, she seems to know what she's talking about. Chows are also my favorite breed.
She is spot on with describing the breed.
@@vlaronrhodes Spot on!
My dog is a mix of chow and Norwegian elkhound and he has a lot of chow the blue black tongue his bone a muscle structure is all chow but he has the hunting instinct of the elkhound but I love his chow characteristics
Can you find someone who has old school chows? Without the brachy faces and meatmouth muzzles, and excess coat? Someone reputable must breed them.
Can't wait to see this might have to go to Mongolia or Tibet to find but not necessarily.
You mean a smooth Chow ?
@@Waryk31 no we mean the proper chow if you look it up on Google you can find examples
@@olihallam9667 Nice to see a few persons who know their Chows. Have them see Lady Phillips originally imported Chows! 😃
Good luck, I searched. My first Chow 40+ Years ago was the last that I ever saw.
Those are beer in the disguise
They are soul breeds. They are civilized but as domesticated as cats. They might as well be hounds.
My aunt had a chow that behaved more like a golden retriver always happy and loves attension
Even in the later years she went blind but still was like a slow puppy she lived for i think 15 or so years she passed of heart failiure 8 years ago still miss her but my aunt got into fostering dogs and she foster flopped 4 times on seinor dogs
Awŵwwk blessss ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
my grandmas neighbour used to have two red chows but they didnt look like this they were quite a bit less fluffy and didnt have a shar pei looking face. are there different lines of chow chow?
There are 2 types of coats....ruff and smooth. The smooth hair is short
PS If you find pictures of the first imported Chows their coats are not as fancy as the current bred Chows which were genetically chosen for their fluffy coats.
My chow is snoring beside me
Okay so no one is gonna talk about the cat ?!
Do they drool a lot??
NO! Have owned 5 none ever drooled.
@@michaelsheedy9354 When they shed is it a lot of loose hair or it’s it just fuzz balls?
@@kirstinbrown8704 Loose hair dumped twice a year. Need much attention to their coat. Weekly brushing at minimum to keep the excess out of the house.
I had one who was VERY aggressive. She was NOT friendly at all and would bite anyone from me to strangers.
She probably bit someone in the treatment center lol
They DON'T like people other than their owner
@@jamesg4987 you are correct ! We had a chow chow mix growing up and he was mean as hell….to strangers. He was an outside dog and protected the house. If anyone went anywhere near our house he heard a car he was barking and growling like crazy. He’s was never aggressive with us though
Chow Chow is a kind of Chinese dog，u can find old school in China，not the American Chow Chow.
Their cool how can people be scared of them there to small
My family have owned 3.They're not small.She said 17",but actually the standard is 17"-20",55lbs-70lbs.They're a good sized medium dog,& they take guarding very seriously.Any stranger who jumps into the yard of a Chow is getting torn up.
@@loncopeland8343 sweet man thanks for info I sent own one or know anyone who does . I've got a corso .
when you water your plants in the sunlight, it magnifies the sunlight on the leaves, and hurts the plants, and, in that desert climate, the water quickly evaporates.
The suggestion is to water your plants, near the setting of the sun, please.
Oo, did not know that. Thank you :)
Those are so mean POS dogs. My friend had one they got for cheap bc it had bronchitis growing up named Taboo.
I came over a lot so he never bothered me but he’d bite anyone given the chance
Eating dogs, cats,, camels or horses is almost cannibalism.
The two chow in my neighborhood have kill over 4 puppies, I blame the owner. Just because u the mayor don't mean u can let them run the streets & shit🤬🤬
Chow chows don’t make good dogs in America forreal.
They are like the love child of care bears with care bear cousin lion
Has this video been posted before? I feel like I've seen it before.
