Wow, talk about time flying by...<br />The first time I saw a Chow in person was when I was visiting a friend in Chicago. There was this woman who showed rental property and always had her Chow as her security, with her. She filled me in with all the info and stressed that Chows need to be socialized. When I got my Chow, I had a roommate and we had so many people around all the time that Keoke would roll on the floor for tummy rubs. A big black ball of soft fur that never showed an aggressive moment. I think she must have been the exception to the rule. Wow, twenty years...Cindi Myershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01475347748831862659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6991743430794325756.post-54365523261379116842010-06-20T19:52:49.964-07:002010-06-20T19:52:49.964-07:00Thanks for all the interesting info on Teddy's...Thanks for all the interesting info on Teddy's beautiful breed, Joyce.

NO shaving at all...the right food makes going potty no problem at all.<br /><br />Teddy and Mele have the same color coat which is just beautiful.<br /><br />I really enjoyed your focus on Teddy today. She is so much a part of your every day life and on your blog, so that we feel we know her.Wsprsweetly Of Cottageshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17990765326246470929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6991743430794325756.post-86554732721105669312010-06-20T11:49:07.291-07:002010-06-20T11:49:07.291-07:00I love Chow Chows, but I know that I would never h...I love Chow Chows, but I know that I would never have one for all the reasons you give. Neither Jeff or I would be strong enough. Whenever Jeff and I were looking for a new dog we would study the breeds. So knowing what we do about chows and a few other breeds we know that they wuldn't be the breed for us. I am so glad that Teddy has you. She is a happy, happy dog. I encourage all people to check out the breeds they like. There would be less unhappy people and dogs out there.
