The Chow Chow 
by Frank T. Carlton. 
HP HE Chow Chow dog is a native of 
-1- China, and it is only in very recent 
years that he has become popular in this 
country and England. The vogue of the 
breed has been slow to develop, but the 
last two or three years has seen an ad¬ 
vance that is amazing. The principal 
breeders in various parts of the United 
States all report an overflow of orders 
for puppies. So far, the Chow has en¬ 
joyed an exclusiveness of patronage some¬ 
what akin to that of the French Bulldog. 
It is not a cheap dog, in the first place, and 
its singular or quaint appearance perhaps 
calls for a rather cultivated taste in dogs. 
At all events he has grown in the affec¬ 
tions of the American dog-lover in the 
most permanent fashion, and many of the 
handsomest homes throughout the country 
boast these dogs as ornaments and guards. 
The Chow is a good watch dog, with the 
commendable trait of not easily making 
friends 
In connection with this last quality, the 
fact is that as a real guard or watch-dog, 
the Chow has no superior. He is not a 
very large dog, but he is muscular, hardy, 
of undeniable courage, and never fails to 
give warning of the presence of intruders. 
One commendable feature of his watching 
is that he is no mere alarmist. When a 
Chow gives tongue there is something 
going on, or somebody around, that his 
owner should be aware of. Added to this 
he has one of the greatest charms in any 
dog, namely, he does not make friends 
with strangers. This is his most noted 
mental characteristic, and binds his owner 
to him with bonds of steel. 
The Chow Chow breeds true to type, 
therefore he must be accepted as a dog of 
high degree. Once at maturity, he is re¬ 
garded as exceptionally hardy, and it is 
best to purchase a specimen when he is 
bordering on this stage. At the age of six 
months, or thereabouts, the tongue of the 
young Chow should have turned com¬ 
pletely black. This is one of the essential 
physical characteristics of the breed.
