With its lion-like mane, blue-black tongue and dignified attitude, the Chow Chow is unlike any other breed. It is also not for everyone, so read this before you decide.

About the Chow Chow

The Chow Chow is one of the oldest dog breeds, developed in ancient China as an all-purpose dog for guarding, hunting and pulling. Today it is known for its plush coat, deep-set eyes, stiff-legged walk and reserved, cat-like personality.

  • Size and weight

    The Chow Chow size is medium and sturdy. Adults stand about 17 to 20 inches at the shoulder and weigh about 45 to 70 pounds. They are heavily boned and look larger than they are because of the coat.

  • Temperament

    The Chow Chow temperament is loyal, quiet and independent. Chows tend to bond closely with one person or one family and stay aloof with strangers. They are clean, dignified and not very playful or cuddly compared with retrievers. Without early socialization, that protective streak can turn into suspicion of visitors and other dogs.

  • Energy and exercise

    Chows have moderate energy. Daily walks and some play are enough for most adults, and they are content to relax at home. They are not a breed for jogging or long runs, especially in heat.

  • Grooming and shedding

    Chows come in a rough (long, dense) or smooth (short, dense) double coat, and both shed heavily, with big seasonal sheds. Brush several times a week, down to the skin, to prevent mats and hot spots. This is not a low-shedding breed.

  • Lifespan

    Chow Chows typically live about 8 to 12 years.

Is a Chow Chow right for your Miami home?

Here is the honest part: the Chow Chow is one of the most heat-sensitive breeds you can own in Miami. A thick double coat plus a short, broad muzzle makes it hard for a Chow to cool down. A Chow in South Florida must live in air conditioning, walk only in the early morning or late evening, and never be left outside in the heat. Watch for heavy panting or slowing down and bring your dog inside right away.

Caring for your Chow Chow puppy

Chows are naturally clean and often housebreak quickly with a steady routine. Take your puppy out after meals, naps and play, and reward success.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Petland Miami have Chow Chow puppies for sale?

Petland Miami's puppies change every week, and any Chow Chow puppies in the Kendall store show first on this page. If there isn't one today, call (305) 363-6959 or send the inquiry form, and a Pet Counselor will check with our breeders for you. You can also browse every available puppy, since new puppies arrive every week.

Can a Chow Chow live in Miami heat?

A Chow Chow can live in Miami only with air conditioning and careful heat management, because its thick double coat and short muzzle make it very heat-sensitive. Walk only in the early morning or late evening and never leave a Chow outside in the heat. Petland Miami's Pet Counselors can suggest breeds that handle heat better.

How big does a Chow Chow get?

A full grown Chow Chow stands about 17 to 20 inches at the shoulder and weighs about 45 to 70 pounds. They are sturdy, heavily boned dogs that look bigger because of their coat. Check your Miami condo or HOA weight limits before bringing one home.

Are Chow Chows good family dogs?

Chow Chows can be good family dogs for adults and families with older, respectful children, but they are reserved and do not enjoy rough play. They are loyal to their own people and aloof with strangers. Early socialization is essential, and a Petland Miami Pet Counselor can help you decide if a Chow fits your household.

Why does a Chow Chow have a blue tongue?

The Chow Chow's blue-black tongue is a natural breed trait, and puppies are born with pink tongues that darken as they grow. Along with the Chinese Shar-Pei, it is one of the few breeds known for this feature. A blue-black tongue is part of the breed standard and is not a health problem.

Is Petland Miami a Chow Chow breeder?

No, Petland Miami is a pet store in Kendall, not a Chow Chow breeder. Our puppies come from USDA-licensed breeders with no direct violations and select hobby breeders, named on our Petland Cares page. Miami-Dade County requires the breeder's name and address for every puppy, and you can ask to see it.
