The following has been altered from the Chow Chow Breed Council website along with our own information:

A fluffy, adorable 8 week old Chow Chow puppy becomes a strong and wilfully independent dog in a few short months. Although a Chow is highly intelligent and extremely loyal to its owner, a chows strong will makes it a challenge ideally suited to an owner prepared to give him both time and patience. A chow is serious, dignified, and proud.
