Teriyaki came from a packed Texas shelter, quiet and unsure of the world around him. But just a short time in foster care has revealed a different side of this deep-hearted boy—one that’s affectionate, loyal, and slowly learning that he’s safe.
He’s a true lovebug, accepting affection from everyone he meets. He’s especially bonded with his foster dad—he’s even claimed a spot on his side of the bed. Once Teriyaki gives his heart, it’s yours.
Leash training is still in progress—he’s strong as an ox and has a definite prey drive (deer are very exciting). But he’s improving, step by step. He’s not food-motivated, but calm praise makes all the difference.
- Affectionate, loyal, and soulful
- Bonds deeply (especially with the soft-hearted humans)
- Strong prey drive—needs confident handler
- Praise over treats, always
- Sleeping soundly next to his favorite human
- Transport available
Teriyaki is growing into himself—safe, steady, and ready to share his heart with someone who understands the quiet beauty of earning trust.
**Teriyaki is located in Little Rock, AR. Paid transport can be arranged. Transport costs range from $200-400.**

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.
