History

he Chow is one of the oldest recognisable types of dog (dating back to at least 3000 B.C.). Originally from Mongolia and the heights of Tibet, the Chow was used for guarding temples in China, hunting, herding and even for food. Today however, Chows are primarily a companion dog yet their instinct of guarding has stayed with them in their want to sleep in doorways.
