The ChowChow is a very independent breed by nature. They are very loyal to their owners but usually do not respond well to strangers. They have a strong following; and require a lot of attention for those that are not very educated about the breed. The ChowChow is usually hard to get excited about much. They live comfortably and quietly by themselves and rarely see the need to move with any considerable speed, therefore demand very little exercise. This breed is not very demanding with regard to food as the only weigh about 59 lbs and stand 22 inches tall. The bulk of their size is fur which can be deceiving, and that is why the grooming of a ChowChow is a very demanding task. Often considered an ill tempered breed, the ChowChow is not a very good family dog and the owner should be weary of this dog around small children.
