My story

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

Geronimo is one of the 7 Alabama chows I rescued from the backyard breeder. 5 siblings have gone on to new loving homes and are thriving, his sister Ky (whom I have not listed) may never leave us....she only likes me. But, Geronimo, with the right home, will do well. Since I have had him I have not heard a bark, but I have heard a couple howls when the firetrucks go by. He is quiet, docile, and minds his own business. He is prime example of an aloof chow. I have scratched his back, pet him under his neck and he will follow me around the yard for treats occasionally.....but if he sees a leash, he is GONE in 2 seconds. SO>>>>>if there are any chow savvy people out there ready for a challenge, please let me know....Serious inquiries only. I want his next home to be his last home. Otherwise, he can just stay here until that happens. He is indifferent to dogs that are indifferent to him, but if a dog (my belgian mal mix) tries to fence fight and cause trouble, he will not back down. He will stand his ground. I do not have cats, but he lived on a property with Multiple cats in the past, and his siblings that have been adopted did great with cats in the home. I am assuming he will be fine with cats, but I can not guarantee. I would prefer an aduly home only for him, because he is not one that would appreciate being grabbed or tugged on. He is 4-5 years old.
