Story
Scarlet, like most of our dogs started running scared from everyone.  She had been seen repeatedly returning to a dog park as if she had been dumped there.  Multiple attempts by people and animal control to catch her had failed with several resulting with her on the nearby freeway before we got the call to help catch her.  She had already been "out" for days and although had a pattern was being chased so covering ground, making trapping hard.  We went with our gut and set at the park where she always seemed to return.  It did the trick and she was safe.  Sadly, as expected no one came forward to claim or pick her up.  She was scared, guarded and true to her primary breed (chow) not the best communicator.  We took things slow, gave her space and time.  She softened up and began to glow.  The big suprise came when she showed us she knows sit, down, shake and even roll over.  What happened and where were her people?    In their absence all we could do was build on what she already knew and start to expand her circle to include strangers and the scary world.  It has taken time but she now approaches people for food, welcomes affection from stangers and her eagerness to interact and please those she knows is irresistable.  She is extremely food motivated, wicked smart and eager to please.  She is balanced with dogs big or small.  Her house training is a work in progrees but getting better.  She is still relatively new to us but her progress has been amazing,  She is starting to show off her playful and silly side.  If you think you don't have the time or ability for a lifetime commitment but enjoy a dog she could really grow best while in foster.  If you enjoy the journey of watching a dog grow and slowly evolve this girl is the one for you. Because of my Flight Risk I cannot be left unattended in a yard, crate training is a must when you are gone, tight grip on the leash is a must on adventures and my new family must be aware of open doors and windows.  NO offleash activities in unfenced areas for life.

Story
Hi everyone! We are looking for a loving home for our 6mos old pup, Bleu. He is a full-breed Chow-Chow. He is a very smart boy. He is self-potty-trained and never had any accidents inside the house at all. He eats home-cooked meals twice daily and takes supplements. He is current on vaccinations as well. He enjoys walking twice daily and play fetch. We have six people in the house and he is very good with them. He sleeps throughout the night and does not wake up at all. We are only asking for a family that has knowledge on Chow-Chow breed. Someone who will be patient in getting to know him & will take good care of him the way we did. We are only doing this due to an unexpected change in our lives that require us to move away. If you, or you know someone who would be interested, please let us know & do not hesitate to reach out if you have any further questions. Thank you & have a great day!

Story
Meet these delightful sisters 4 month-old Chow Chow/Husky mix puppies from El Cajon, CA, whose essence is a playful blend of fluff, fun, and boundless affection wrapped in golden and black coats! These females ,are the kind of companions who instantly brighten a room with their curious eyes, wagging tails, and puppy enthusiasm. Expected to reach around 50 pounds when fully grown, they’ll be medium-sized dogs with the loyal nature of a Chow and the energetic, fun-loving spark of a Husky. They are fully vaccinated and pee pad potty trained, making the transition into home life a little easier. They’re in the early stages of leash training and doing wonderfully for their age. While they haven’t had formal obedience training. they’ve already picked up on basics like “sit,” “lay down,” and, of course, “fetch”—one of their favorite games! When playtime is over, they’re more than happy to snuggle up close for some one-on-one cuddle time. would one of these girls be perfect for you?

Story
DOB: June 2019 Weight: 40lbs Disposition: Engaging, Happy, and ConfidentMeet this spirited and handsome pup, Danillo! Danillo is an incredibly brave boy. He was saved from the streets of Thailand by our partners at the Soi Dog Foundation and underwent months of treatment, love and affection to completely transform into his now happy-go-lucky nature. He has taken to his new rescued life with enthusiasm!Danillo will put on a huge smile for the TBL volunteers and any others who happen to come by with pets or a tasty treat (or simply a "good boy" - he's not that picky). He comes when he's called and loves attention. Some of his favorite pastimes include: chasing and being chased, cooling off in the kiddie pool, and hanging out with the volunteers at the Ranch. The icing on the cake? Danillo is housebroken and non-destructive.
