Chow Chow Temperament

Chow Chows can be described as aloof (cool and a bit distant), composed, and independent. Their behavior is a lot like that of a cat. While they may seem like the cuddling type from their appearance, Chow Chows may not be as enthusiastic when it comes to hugging.

Even so, this dog breed shows a lot of loyalty and devotion. A Chow is likely to choose one family member and follow them around wherever they go — just like cats.

Chow Chows are not very active in nature and do not need a lot of physical exercise. Because of this, the preferred exercise for a Chow is a simple walk instead of running or jogging. They are very territorial and may prefer to stay in the house most of the time.

This breed of dog does not easily trust new people or dogs. To prevent issues, make sure you engage in early training and socialization. Even following training, Chows don’t have the tendency to live in packs and will only trust individuals they’ve already met or respect.

On the plus side, Chow Chows don’t bark a lot or bite unless provoked. They have a relatively loud bark and a powerful bite that, combined with their territorial nature, make them a good choice for protecting property.

If your Chow is aggressive and barks a lot, make sure you find out what the issue is. Also, consider taking your dog in for obedience training and socializing them as puppies.

Training

Chow Chows don’t trust people easily and may be a bit difficult to train. However, early training and socialization can help with that.

Training a Chow may require some patience, positivity, and consistency. Above all, new trainers should stay consistent in their method of training. This breed of dogs can be a bit stubborn, but they have high intelligence levels.

Meanwhile, make sure that you avoid harsh training methods. This will help in establishing trust between you and your dog. Make sure to include positive reinforcement in training and practice.

Caring for Chow Chows
Grooming

Despite their enormous coat, Chow Chow owners often assert that it’s one of the cleanest dog breeds. Their coats can either be smooth or rough. Chow Chows are double-coated. That means you need to engage in regular grooming to maintain their enormous coats. Try brushing coats thoroughly at least twice every week, and give baths once a month. After giving your Chow Chow a bath, make sure you dry their coat, preferably using an air dryer.

Matting is common in puppies or in adults with unmaintained coats — especially in the fur around their heads. To prevent the coat from getting matted, regular grooming is essential. Brush or comb your Chow Chow’s undercoat properly to remove all the mats that may have formed. Also, remember to check the coat and skin for ticks or fleas and get rid of them. Other parasites that may pose a threat include heartworms, and owners are advised to administer heartworm medication year-round.

Chow Chow grooming should also include ear, eye, tooth, and nail care. Inspect your dog’s ears regularly and clean them if necessary. Always make sure that the nails don’t become overgrown. Trim your Chow Chow’s nails regularly, and brush their teeth daily.
