To ensure that our placements are appropriate, we need to make sure
that we select a dog that is compatible with your lifestyle. That is
why it is essential that we chat with you and determine how
best to meet your needs. If we have a Chow that may be the right one for you,
we will invite you to our kennel to meet him. If you do not live in our area,
we can email or send a variety of photographs to you of the dogs you are interested in.
If we do not have a Chow to suit you now, we may have one
at a later date. Just keep in contact with us and visit our site regularly.
Although previous ownership of a Chow is not a must, it is helpful to
have some knowledge of the breed before thinking of adoption. It is a
good idea to visit some of the links listed on this page for more
detailed information on the breed.
We expect our dogs to be an intergral part of your home and be involved
in your family life and activities. We also want to ensure the safety of
the dogs we place, therefore we prefer that adopters have a fenced yard.
Occasionally, exceptions are made for responsible dog owners with special situations.
Our adoption fee is $150. This fee is used to offset the cost of medical expenses and feed.
All dogs are spayed or neutered and up to date on their vaccinations. They
are heartworm negative and have been started on preventative. They
are bathed, dipped, groomed and have their nails trimmed. Some are good with
cats. All are friendly with good, even dispositions and we feel will
adapt readily to a new home. All are 100% guaranteed. If for any reason
your adopted dog does not work out, we will take it back and replace
it with another rescue dog. If you are not happy with your
new pet then chances are the pet is not happy either. We want to ensure
that both owner and Chow are happy.
