What American Kennels Club says about the Chow Chow:

AKC MEET THE BREEDS®: Chow Chow A powerful, sturdy dog of Arctic type, medium in size and muscular with heavy bone, the Chow Chow is an ancient breed of northern Chinese origin. While the breed was originally a working dog, he primarily serves as a companion today and is seen in show rings across the country. This lion-like, regal breed comes in five colors - red, black, blue, cinnamon and cream - and is known for its blue/black tongue and stilted gait. Their coats can also be either rough or smooth.

A Look Back

The true origin of the Chow is unknown, but the breed as it is known today is easily recognizable in pottery and sculptures of the Chinese Han Dynasty (206 B.C. to 22 A.D.). An all-purpose dog used for hunting, herding, pulling and protection of the home, some scholars claim the Chow was the original ancestor of the Samoyed, Norwegian Elkhound, Pomeranian and Keeshond.

Right Breed for You? Affectionate and devoted to family, the Chow is reserved and discerning with strangers. Their cat-like personalities make them independent, stubborn and less eager to please than other breeds. They require early socialization and training, and some kind of exercise daily. Regular grooming and bathing is a must to maintain their double coats.

Additional Notes:

Chow Chow - in Chinese the word chow chow is Songshi Quan which really means ‘puffy-lion dog.’ The Chow chow was announced one of the oldest dog breeds after recent DNA analysis.

Leonardo has excellent physical qualities and exceeds the standards of the normal Chow Chow. Leo is massive but also correctly proportionate.His measurements: 28" tall, 40" long, 17" wide, and his paws are all most 3!/2". He weighs in at 82lbs. We believe Leo is truly an excellent specimen for breeding.
