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.

Adopting in Phoenix, AZ

Phoenix offers a pet-friendly desert lifestyle with mild winters perfect for outdoor adventures with your adopted companion. Local shelters are home to many loving animals who thrive in the Valley of the Sun.

With scenic hiking trails at South Mountain and Papago Park, spacious dog parks, and a growing number of pet-friendly businesses, Phoenix is a great place to give a shelter pet a second chance at happiness.

Local Climate & Pet Care

Winter

45°F to 68°F

Dec – Feb

Phoenix winters are the best time for Labrador Retrievers to enjoy the outdoors. South Mountain and Papago Park trails are perfect for high-energy Labs. The mild temperatures let them exercise to their heart’s content.

Spring

55°F to 90°F

Mar – May

Labs shed heavily in spring as they drop their undercoat. By May, Phoenix temperatures climb into the 90s and Labrador Retrievers need shorter walks. Transition to early morning outings by mid-spring.

Summer

78°F to 106°F

Jun – Aug

Phoenix summer is extremely dangerous for active Labrador Retrievers. Pavement can reach 170°F and burns paw pads. Walk Labs only before 6 AM or after 9 PM and never skip water. Heatstroke risk is very high.

Fall

60°F to 95°F

Sep – Nov

September is still brutally hot for Labs in Phoenix. By late October, Labrador Retrievers can resume normal exercise on desert trails. November is ideal for longer hikes at Camelback Mountain with your Lab.
