There’s something therapeutic about listening to his monotone voice while he’s cuddling this living teddy bear 😂

The information you provide matches 100% the experience I have with my chows.

"Just because it acts aloof doesn't mean they want to be alone completely" Felt that one about myself lol 😶

I love my chow like a son... he's moody, he's weird...but he's a legend.

Ive had two chows. They were both pussycats. I never knew they had a reputation as being aggressive until afterward. One trait that is true is that they love food!

As he cuddles his dog that doesn’t like cuddles. He’s right though. Chows are weirdos. I’ve had three.

Same, having the third one in a row right now. But the current kid is much more friendly and sociable than the other two. :)

We started our chow chow on going to the groomers when he was very young. He ended up bonding to this one groomer and allowed her to wash and care for him. He wouldn't let any other groomer touch him. He would growl and scare them. He built a reputation at the groomers. It really helped that she was an experienced groomer and loved him.

My chow gets along great with all dogs and people because of that early training 😉🤩 I think I got a unicorn! He seeks attention constantly and I love him and his facial expressions it’s like he’s a human! My friends get freaked out they feel like he’s talking to them n telling them stuff. I really raised a good chow. And he’s mixed with Tibetan mastiff.

The ONE time I observed my 2 shows playing anything, female had dug a mole up out of yard and they were tossing it thru the air back and forth as it was squeaking. It was tough to get it from them & toss over fence to field where it hopefully survived, I'm unsure they forgave me. Kept staring at area of fence we took their toy and tossed it in for a long time

I had a chow chow that was actually super affectionate. I had chows growing up so when I moved out and got my own house I got a chow chow because I knew what they were like and also for protection. But.......lol, my beautiful red chow chow ended up having the personality of a lab or golden retriever. Even with strangers. Also easy to train. 🤔 I still think there was golden retriever in there somewhere but you couldn't tell by looking at her.

When we had our chows, when guests was were invited into the house, we told our guests do not make any quick movements or noises, our chows stood ready to react.

My chow chow Dashi was so special. She was with us for 16 and a half years and I miss her dearly everyday. She was beautiful and always ready for a squeeze. She was a handful until about 8 years. I exercised her everyday and took care of her grooming myself. She was the best travel companion and just wanted to be with me. I love her.❤️ We have a little shiba inu now. She is sweet but has anxiety when driving in the car for long trips. I love her too but she’s a little more drama then my Dashi. One day, I will get another chow chow.

Gotta love Chow's, mine recently turned 10 years old and she looked exactly like this dog in the video when she was smaller :)

Well said. I can sum it up a little shorter. A Chow Chow never forgives and never forgets. Whatever you do good or wrong will last a lifetime. Having said that you must be thoughtful and calm in your approach to your dog. I'm currently raising my 5th Chow. All of my previous dogs lived between 13 and 16 years. If you do the math you know I have a lot of years behind me raising Chow Chows. You get the best results when you keep your dog at your side all the time, which I have done. Being self-employed and then retired does have its perks. My guy and I we walk 5 miles a day, everyday regardless of the weather. Of all the Chows that I have raised this one is the largest and the strongest. He's huge. He is 27 in at the withers and weighs 110 #. He's not fat. He has legs like tree trunks and thighs like hams. I cook his dinner every night and control his diet.

I had Cinnamon Chow and my Daughter bought a cat when he was 8 years old and I took newspaper and tapped his nose and said nooo, she is family now.. because Chows are so intelligent they are the easiest to train... if Chows are socialized they are friendly but will protect if owner attacked..

You have accurately described the Chow Chow. 👏

One of the most aloof dog breeds on the planet. they never like to listen. I had 4 of them.

Agree in general ❤❤❤ and then... I would add this. Not for cats. Yeah, you need to socialize or train for cats and I think that you need that for all dogs. But to add, I have a chow I rescued when he was estimated 5 years old, untrained history (didn't even know collars or leashes) and rated "aggressive" at the shelter. But he was instantly attached to me (just me) and when I introduced my cats, gradually, the rule was being set that he should leave them be. He respected me so I was able to do this. It IS possible with the right situation to even train an adult Chow to respect your cats. 4 years after his rescue and he's still completely trustworthy about my cats. Can't read them? well, you can, but to do this you need to make it your task to learn to read them. I think that reading your Chow is key because they are giving you information all the time and if you don't pay attention, you will be surprised when they have to escalate to more obvious cues. People get mad when a dog growls at them, but 99% they will have given you a clue first that they didn't like what was happening. And even then, the growl is just a vocal cue because you missed the body language. Take it for what it is. I think one of the things I love the most about Chows is that they are always challenging me to be the best dog mom. Dogs speak another language and have different cultural rules. Make the effort to learn their culture and their language if you want to share your life with them. Affection? Yeah, they're pretty independent but also, my Chows are instantly excited that I came home, and they follow me around the house most of the time. Sometimes they just laze instead, but that's the exception. Mine are socialized with people and dogs, and they enjoy the dog park and every sort of situation, as long as they're with me. They just want to be with their human leader. But you are COMPLETELY ACCURATE about this - they do not tolerate any crap from a human. It's a trust based relationship. You are the leader, but you must be a good leader and a fair leader. If you break trust with a Chow you will not have the same relationship. Mine allow me to make a few small mistakes and are willing to forgive, but I would never want to truly break that trust. This is not a Golden Retriever. They don't just put up with stupid humans. 😂 But both my dogs are SUPER affectionate. If you are not up to the job, the commitment, for a lifetime. If you are not ready for a "level 10 dog" then don't get a Chow. It's not fair to them if you just get them because they're cute - not if you can't be what they need in a leader.

We have a chow/staff mix. I can definitely see the chow in her. She does not like strangers or larger dogs. We got her from the high kill shelter in 2012 and she was next on the euthanasia list. We could tell within a day she had been badly abused. The staff also balances her out. She loves my husband and I and she is VERY protective of us. Ours, Alice, she puts up one heck of a show that she's going to eat someone up if someone pulls in our driveway, not saying she wouldn't though. I absolutely love ours, the perfect balance.

@@lovelyperez1687 I don't mean to intrude on your discussion - I hope my comment adds value to what Gust The Chow Chow might say: if you want to know about the lineage and history of the sire and dam, the breeder you are interacting with should be able to provide this information. If the breeder does not have this information, or they refuse to provide this information - they are not a breeder, but rather a puppy-mill only seeking profit - no dog from a puppy-mill will exhibit breed-standards that you are seeking. A breeder of good reputation will be registered with the regional kennel-association (for example, the Canadian Kennel Club), and all of their dogs will be registered and will have probably completed at least conformation-showing, and will have their lineage-documents registered by the kennel-association. With animals such as the Chow Chow, it certainly is foolish to encourage puppy-milling, and even more foolhardy to acquire a dog from a puppy-mill - it is irresponsible since the puppy-mills produce unreliable and unpredictable animals, and with larger dogs like Chows, this could have very tragic results.

Just my .02. My 21 pieces of advice with regard to owning Chow Chows or a Tasmanian Devil: 1. Get two chows! They'll get so much exercise wrestling with each other, that walks will be unnecessary. They'll wear each other out. If I wanted to take mine for a walk, my female would be like, “Seriously, I just spent 30 minutes hassling the other idiot, I have no time or energy for that!” 2. Don't ever get two female chows, ever! Female chows like to make rules! Two rule makers don't get along... I previously saw a video on KZread recommending getting two female chows. That person is clearly insane. No, never. They barely tolerate males that aren’t submissive. 3. Any male cats you have prior to getting a chow puppy are probably safe. Don't add new non-chow animals to the mix later. I wouldn't anyway, except may a Shar Pei. Opposite sex, two males ok… never two females. I’ve never had a female cat (nasty animals!). Let me know how that worked out for you if you have tried this. 4. If you are gone a lot (besides a normal work day), don't get a chow. Chows need the socialization or will get mean. If you can come home for lunch, all the better! Think of chows as chihuahuas, but can back up their disposition. Chows may not show it a lot, but they LOVE you. Kind of like of like dropping a girl off at HER home after a wild night at the bar, but she is in YOUR home before YOU get home crazy. I digress. 5. Females chows are hyper aware and more aggressive. Males are more relaxed and aloof, but will follow the female's lead. Let the chows fight it out for dominance as long as no one is getting hurt. The female will always win, as he will eventually let her win. It is their way. A happy bonded pair will have a female lead and male submissive. It really is their way. Any other outcome and you will have two very unhappy chows. A male doesn’t know how to lead… 6. Don't ever sneak up on a chow. Bad idea... They don't like being spooked. If I approach my chows from behind, I announce my presence. 7. Small children and chows don't mix, IMO. My wife and I are very chill. Children make them nervous. 12+ old kids and up would be my advice. Chows like calm, and don’t do well in a crazy household. 8. Get right in a chow's muzzle ALOT from the day you get them. They will be less likely to snap at folks who are in their face, as they won't take it as a threat... No one except for an alpha human or who they bond with should ever stare down a chow. These are often two different folks. My son can testify that this annoys chows. 9. I hear this a lot: “It's all about the upbringing and not the genetics with chows, pitbulls, etc.” Anyone telling you this is an idiot! A chow is always a chow at heart. They are hardwired protective, territorial, grizzly bears. At about 9 months old, a chow realizes it is a chow. If you think your chow is going to gleefully greet the mailman, you are nuts and probably need a lobotomy. Maybe you should get by a Labrador Retriever or a Pug. I think it is a life changing event for chows. My wife didn't believe me on this: She would take our female chow in the vehicle to pick up her Wal-Mart order. From 12 weeks to 9 months, the female chow was a happy fluffy puppy greeting the person filling the trunk of the car. At about 9 months, a chow realizes what it is: A chow. She went nuts when the person approached my wife’s car door. Ms. Chow is no longer welcome at the Wal-Mart pick up lane. Again, anyone that ignores a chow’s genetics is an idiot. Socializing can only do so much, but it can be SIGNIFICANLY mitigated. 10. This is related to #9. A young chow acts similar to a typical dog. You may think, ‘I don’t need to establish being the alpha. He/she is such a good chow already! I got a great special chow who doesn’t need a leader!” If this occurs, you have already demonstrated that you are a fool and are going to be very unhappy, as is your chow. A chow MUST have an alpha human. No exceptions, EVER. If you have chosen to allow a chow to rule your home, you probably now have an unruly or overly aggressive dog, and it was COMPLETELY your doing. This is why there are a lot of chows in shelters. ☹ You must be alpha from early on and throughout the chow’s life. If you cannot do this, please, please, please, please don’t get a chow. I should have made this rule #1. 11. A chow will give its life for you. Their loyalty, protectiveness, and territorialism borders on insanity, for both males and females. If you have a chow or two, and there is an unwelcome stranger at your bedroom door in the middle of the night: Your chows are dead. No if, ands, or buts. Your chow(s) is/are dead. They will protect you at ALL costs. Sometimes I lock my doors at night, sometimes I don’t. Burglar beware, and may God have mercy on your torn apart soul. 12. Children are attracted to chows like magnets. Chows are like fluffy bears! Make sure to expose your chow puppy to as many children as possible when they are puppies. No matter what, and never leave a chow unsupervised around a young child. Chows don’t like busy bodies. 13. The less protein in food the better, but don’t feed them crap. Chows can dang near live off vegetables alone. Too high of protein content in their food can give them skin/health problems. As with all dogs, no grapes, chocolate, etc. Treats should include vegetables with low fat/sugars. Carrots and blueberries good. Bananas and strawberries bad. Start young. Chows came from China. Do you think Chinese folks fed chows Kung Pow Chicken or Generals Tso’s Chicken? No, they didn’t. They fed them what ever was on hand and in supply (vegetables, BTW). I go with Purina Pro Plan Lamb or Chicken. Lamb is preferred. 14. Brush a chow a lot, and buy good brushes. Wal-Mart is a no go. Chows like it if you start young and is bonding experience for them. I chose to get an OCD wife, and she does this for me. Win!/Win! 15. This is related to #14, Chows will attach to 1 or 2 persons in your house. My chows have always respected me as the alpha, but they LOVE my wife. If I’m ever charged with domestic violence, and I have all my limbs intact, I am clearly innocent. When they pick the “one”, that person is “IT”. I’ve never seen another breed of dog do this. If you are the one, congratulations! 16. Don’t ever, ever, ever, ever, turn on or abuse a chow. They will never forget it or forgive you. If you have a bad temper, don’t get a chow. Chows will take a swat on the rear, or an very angry, “NO!”, but they have NO tolerance for abuse or neglect. Beat a chow and it will hate you FOREVER, and expect to see your furry ex-friend on Judgment Day cursing your soul. 17. Get some lighting between your bedroom and the restroom. Chows are smart and won’t bite you, but God has apparently programmed them to sleep in strategically placed locations near your bedroom doorway and the bathroom in order to kill intruders and trip you in the middle of the night. If you get two chows, expect the male to be completely outside your bedroom. She will insist his idiot self to be the first line of defense. Again, she is the smarter one. 18. Female chows are much smarter/cunning than the males. Think of the female as a smaller ill-tempered wolf and the male as a dumb cow that doesn’t like surprises with teeth. 19. Get a good vacuum cleaner. I’d recommend a high-end Dyson cordless. You are going to need it. Anyone saying chows don’t shed that much has either has a carpet covered in the color of hair of their chow(s), or is blind. I don’t care how much you brush them, you’ll need a good vac. 20. If you have a lot of different people coming to your house all the time, live a hectic lifestyle, have no “inside voice”, or have spastic energetic annoying friends or relatives, get a different dog. Chows will hate those sorts of people and probably you. 21. Chows are the best dogs EVER. Just make sure they fit into your lifestyle and personality. Too many shelters have too many chows because owners didn’t know or didn’t respect what they were getting. It’s ok to pick a different breed of dog, chows are not for everyone. I’m sitting here at the desk in my den writing this in the late evening. The male is on my right snoring like a pig and my female is on my left getting petted staring up at me like a wolf hoping an intruder stops by. Everyone is happy that I took advice #10 #10 #10 #10 #10. I can’t stress that enough. I hope this helps someone considering getting a chow chow. There was a Chinese emperor that reportedly had 5,000 chows I want one female and 4,999 males. That is my dream, but my wife said something about serving me with divorce papers…

How old is he on this video & what color is he black or blue? Thanks! God bless you brother.

the dog sits on my lap for a few minutes. cudling with a dog means that the dog stays on your lap for a long time, and chows don't do that

how old is this chow in the video? :P
