About Chow Chow Dogs

Chow Chows are dignified, independent dogs known for their lion-like mane, blue-black tongue, and aloof personality. One of the most ancient breeds, they originated in China where they served as temple guards, hunters, and sled pullers. Their thick double coat gives them a teddy bear appearance.

Adopting a Chow Chow means welcoming a loyal, one-person dog who is deeply devoted to their chosen human. They are clean, quiet, and well-mannered in the home. Their independent nature means they appreciate an owner who respects their space while providing gentle, consistent guidance.

Local Climate & Pet Care

Dec – Feb

El Paso winters are comfortable for Labrador Retrievers. Franklin Mountains State Park trails are ideal for high-energy Labs. The dry, mild conditions let them exercise to their full potential.

Spring

45°F to 82°F

Mar – May

Spring dust storms can irritate Labs’ eyes and respiratory system. Keep walks shorter during high-wind days. As temperatures climb, transition Labrador Retrievers to early morning outings by mid-spring.

Summer

Jun – Aug

El Paso’s dry heat is intense but slightly easier on Labs than humid cities. Still, walk before 6 AM only. Rocky desert terrain can be rough on paw pads, so check your Labrador Retriever’s feet after hikes.
