The Chow Chow is a fluffy bear of a dog, famous for its lion-like mane and a tongue that’s actually blue-black—quite the party trick. Originally from China, this breed is medium-sized with a sturdy build and thick double coat that demands regular grooming to avoid turning your house into a fur factory. Chow Chows are known for their aloof temperament and can be quite independent, so they’re not exactly your cuddly lap dog. They require firm, consistent training and socialisation from an early age.
Owning one means committing to a dog that’s loyal but can be standoffish with strangers, so not the best pick for novice owners or families seeking a playful buddy. For prices, new pups can set you back anywhere from roughly $2,500 to $5,000 AUD, while used or older dogs in classifieds like Tradingpost may be a bit easier on the wallet. Expect to budget for grooming and vet care, too.
