My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

My name is Kyra, I am an 8 month old possibly Great Dane/Terrier mix. I love to play with my foster brother and sister (boxer mixes), and to steal their toys! I’m eating well and gaining some much needed weight, as I was skin and bones when I showed up at my foster mom’s back gate a couple of weeks ago. I am all puppy, but am learning basic commands, manners and I do walk quite well on leash and love to meet people and other dogs along the way. I am starting to understand that my create is my safe space, and toys in there are mine, and also that I’m not supposed to take anything out of other creates that are not my own. I have absolutely no sense of personal space, but I have so much love I just want to be as close to people and other dogs as possible!
I have been spayed, microchipped and given all of my first round vaccines.
As much as my foster mom loves me, she knows I need a forever home. Please share me with someone who you think would give me the best forever home and the most love possible!

More about this rescue

Houston Chow Chow Connection is a collaborative of dog lovers and rescuers that dedicate their time, efforts and talents toward helping rescue Chow Chows in need. We are an entirely volunteer-driven 501(c)(3) organization with no administrative costs.


Our rescue traces its origin back several years to the work of Dianne Watson. Dianne dedicated much of her young life to saving homeless Chows in North and West Texas. In her memory, Houston Chow Chow Connection continues her passion of uniting Chow Chows with perfect forever families.


HCCC began rescuing in 2013 and re-homed over 400 dogs since inception, including over 125 in 2017! Our dogs found homes on the East and West coasts of the U.S. and have traveled north and south! As we continue to rescue and re-home more and more Chows, our costs grow. As you may know, rescuing animals takes money. Not only is there the typical care and upkeep (including food and general veterinary care), some of our rescues need specialized treatments.


At HCCC we don’t pick and choose the dogs we rescue – they pick us. While the majority of our rescues are healthy, we never turn our backs on the homeless, Chows with physical issues, or disabilities. Some of our incoming babies have suffered long-term and extensive neglect. New HCCC dogs may require spay/neuter, shaving due to extensive matting, entropion and/or hip replacement surgeries, treatment of skin problems and a variety of other issues.
