Very cute Chow.

Chow (or Chow Chow) dogs are wonderful pets. Chows are very distinctive with their thick coats of fur. The fur is particularly thick around the neck giving a very recognizable mane-like appearance distinctive to a Chow.

First bred in Mongolia, the Chow breed was later introduced to China. The chinese name for a Chow literally means: Puffy-Lion Dog

My neighbour has a wonderful Chow and my dog loves to socialize with the Chow.
