Hi Bondi Sorry I couldnt help due to the cats, but dont feel disheartened or judged by the posts. Sometimes the best thing for your dog can be the most devestating, So I understand if you feel helpless or confused. And your pregnant- you dont have to reply every hour! (as someone in a previous post commented on)

just reading this post and thought I should let u know what was said about my dog one day at OB...had just finished classes and was letting Dezzy have a drink when a lady from my group came over and asked if her son could ask me a question....once Dezzy had finished his drink I walked over to the son and he asked what breed was my dog....I advised him he was an American Staffordshire Terrier and he turned around and said I thought he was a pig dog gone wrong.....I just laughed and said to him that I had never had anyone describe my dog as being a pig dog gone wrong Dezzyno.1 only a pig would say that!

He is absolutely beautiful! I'm not surprised they thought he was a whippet (Im not saying that he does lool like one) Its not like they were accusing you of something or saying something nasty, I would just be happy that someone is taking the time out to appreciate the dog on the street. Not everyone is as informed about certain dog breeds as some on this forum- and for someone trying to make a conversation with you because they find your dog striking, I am surprised it bothered you so much.

I missed out on the georgous Chow at Shar Pei rescue via petrescue.com.au Thank you for the links, im crossing my fingers If anyone needs to rehome a Chow on this forum- let me know! Thank you everyone

A few months ago I fell in love with a Chow Chow at the RSPCA, I went home, researched the breed and came to the conclusion that this would be my ultimate companion. The next day I went back to the shelter and was devestated to find that she had been adopted I hope the family that adopted her new that she needed an assertive owner, and did not just get her for her looks (although she was shaved) Ever since, I have been searching the trading post, shelters and breeder pages for this unique breed to no luck. Does anyone have any advice as to where I may be able to find a chow? Thank you in advance, any help would be appreciated
