Or his blue tongue?
Or the way he moves? And what about his independent nature?

The mystery behind this fascinating breed continues. There are those who believe that he is a dog but that he doesn't really behave like any other dog. After all, he goes hunting, but not like proper hunting dogs. He's said to be a guardian but he's not your typical watchdog. He is a companion dog but not like any other we know. He eats what every other dog eats, even puppy chow , but with so much caution.
The Chow Chow is an extremely intelligent dog, and again like a cat, doesn't care too much to please his master, as other dogs will want to. He believes in pleasing himself first-his master can wait. Being hunting dogs, unsocialized Chow Chows don't get along with cats or small dogs.
In your pet, you could also find these traits:
1 He resembles a teddy bear and comes across as cuddly and cute
2 Stands proudly with a confident stature
3 Is a reliable and fearsome watchdog
4 Is inherently clean and easily housebroken
5 Is well mannered and quiet
6 Needs moderate exercise but must be groomed regularly

Though these are the general qualities of a Chow dog, it is equally true that you can never be sure what your Chow puppy will grow up to be like. This is because many purebred Chow puppies do not grow up conforming to the standard.
The Chow Chow is a tough customer, no doubt, but if you have the guts and grit to take him in to your home, they can make a swell pet! Remember, he's aristocratic, arrogant, reserved and aloof-so you have to adjust to his whims and fancies.
But he'll do you proud, no matter what, so take one home today. Be assured you have a life of love and understanding from your dog friend.
