Meet Lockey
Chow Chow, 2 years old
Lockey
was adopted!
My favourite thing about Lockey is...
He loves getting his tummy tickled and jumping onto sofa to see out of the window. Loves going for walk.
The biggest challenge with Lockey is...
His sensitive back. When he was a puppy I bathed him with a shampoo and he had a bad reaction to the shampoo. All his fur came off. His back and his skin underneath was red and raw, now he doesn’t like getting a bath and runs when he sees any water.
The most surprising thing about owning a Chow Chow is...
They are so loyal and loving, but have a stubborn streak and will only do what they want to.
What I wish I’d known about Chow Chows is...
Strong willpower!
Did you know?
The Chow Chow has been a very important part of Chinese cultural history. One 8th century Emperor is reported to have kept a kennel of 5,000 Chow Chows looked after by 10,000 huntsmen.
