s. Today I meet some fluffy clouds that have been described as the cutest

puppies

in the world. However, its reputation with both adults and children is less than desirable. Today we found out that The truth behind this cute and extremely ancient breed is aggressive and

dangerous

or simply misunderstood the chow chow, one of the oldest dogs in existence. It is a basal breed that dates back to 150 BC. A writer proposed that the Chow Chow possibly originated in Arctic Asia 3,000 years ago before migrating to China along with settlers bred to resemble a lion. .

The heart of these dogs, their courage and leadership can also match that of a lion, as well as their fierceness. Red coat and mane of the red versions of the breed, the Chinese use Chows as companion dogs, guard dogs and vermin hunters, but they were also once used to pull sleds and carts, now they are more commonly kept as pets. Chow Chows tend to show discernment towards strangers and can become fiercely protective of their owners and their property, they also resist training and Chow Chows can become very stubborn and attached to certain individuals as they age, causing them to Training them when they are

puppies

is crucial because they gain respect from those who care for them. aggression and overprotection as an adult, continuous socialization is necessary as early as possible.

When a child reaches adolescence, he or she may reject the authority of any owner who has not previously managed to gain his or her admiration. All of these features have been mentioned in books and articles on the Internet, so I decided. traveling to Wales to meet one of the UK's best chow chow breeders, Rhannon of Tamaradi Chaos, and her dozens and dozens of furry bundles of hers, all currently socialized for the homes they will go to. She had met the adults before, but today we were going to focus on the puppies and how to prevent them from becoming fiery natured adults and how we can make sure we train them to be safe around our children.

Well, today I have a surprise for you. Follow me. Hi Annika. Look, welcome back to Wales. I know the weather is beautiful again, right? Yes, it is raining a little, it is very windy and there is a storm. Look, this is baby bun. Can I hug her? Can I hold it? Look, look, hello, hello, so today we have puppies, take cookies, yes, we have a lot. of puppies always around 20 here 20 chow puppies just for you today and I can play with all of them. I'm going to have a great day. I had a great time with you last time.

It's a good day, but this time. Let's play with all these babies. Absolutely delicious babies I must say she has to be one of the cutest dog breeds in the world I think as a puppy she is absolutely fine come on come on look look look at more puppies. It was clear to see that Rhiannon had her children there with the puppies and also with the nursing mothers to make sure the dogs got used to being handled and touched by the children. Some puppies squealed when I touched them, a characteristic of the Chow who hates being surprised from above with a hand, especially from a strange person, even these little puppies needed to have me around for a while before they felt comfortable for me to start cuddling them. .

Oh, this one is giving me a lot of kisses after an hour of playing. We pups decided to sit down and chat about their characters and why socialization is the key to creating kind, sensible adults who can feel safe leaving them with their children, well, we're sitting here covered in baby chow chows if that were possible. To be cuter, I've been absolutely eating alive, haven't I, Rhiannon? Since I arrived today, I'm literally living with bouncy pom poms, so how many have I been playing with today? So we have three litters. I've been playing today, from five weeks to eight weeks, and how old are these?

These are five weeks old. Beautiful colors, so what colors have we had for so long? A black one, yes, followed by a fawn, he is cream and she is blue. Oh, they are absolutely adorable and they all have little blue tongues, as you can see, all of these chows have been playing very, very well with Brianna's children. I think socialization with a brief like this is very important. They are a garden breed. treated incorrectly or not socialized, that instinct comes to light, so they are companions, the idea is that they would be your loving pet but keep their home safe when they were puppies, the more people they are exposed to, the more handling they will have, etc. as puppies, the more balance they will have when they are adults, yes, absolutely, I mean, last time you told me that adult children don't like to be surprised, so if someone falls on their head or grabs them from behind and hits them a little shock that is almost the worst thing you can do to a child, even the same with puppies, you can already see that instinct in them to be quite defensive when they are touched, but when you bring everything yours with your children and We treat them very regularly and they go out as you say and socialize in public.

You can have a very, very sweet and loving family pet, yes, and one that is a well-balanced dog. an adult that many people can interact and play with. One of the main questions that seemed to come up in the previous episode was that there seems to be a very wide opinion that these dogs are not very friendly. Now a lot of those comments come from American People, we've briefly talked about this before, but I thought it would be important to go over it because about 70 percent of my viewers are from the US. Yes, do you feel like there seems to be a big difference between both? kind of lines that generally I don't know if it's a social media problem that they are portrayed in an unpleasant way like you know the employees have a bad reputation here but you know they are one of the most affectionate breeds or is it just that something has come up wrong with certain breeding programs and they are the ones making the headlines, unfortunately there are many puppy mills and if these puppies are not exposed to being picked up and groomed regularly they will be criticized if they do not find noises.

You know, things like the television, the dryer, when you have a breed that is designed to guard and detect any changes in the house, then yes, you are going to have a problem, so how big are these little puppies going to get? girls tend to weigh between 20 and 25 kilos, while boys weigh more between 25 and 30 kilos, yes, for something that is not that big, yes, almost like a bulldog with fur, these guys blow their coats twice a year and they will literally come out in handfuls, they will shed a little around the house on a day to day basis, but regular grooming can control that when you take chow chows out in public.

Can the leash be released? Always keep mine on a leash, especially you know, in a park or a public area people are attracted to them, they're cute, they're fluffy and a lot of people run up to you, which can be quite intimidating for any dog ​​and a lot less for a race like this. They also want to be by your side, yes, so even if you let them go, they tend to stay by your side. You will find that many dogs do not approach chows in the same way, which is why they have a flat face.

It is harder for another dog to recognize and because the tail is automatically raised, it is seen as a warning sign even when they are in play mode. Yes, many dogs misinterpret their body signals. Would you say Chows are a pack dog or are they a pack dog? They're a solitary, independent type of dog, they do very well on their own, I mean, every dog ​​obviously is naturally a pack dog, but they will gravitate towards a person and really, two full males don't work well together, no. okay, he's quite competitive, he's a very competitive dog. two, but I would never recommend two males, so you could even have two whole ones.

Yes, they are fine. Men have this funny thing about buying male dogs and I have seen it time and time again when you don't buy two male dogs. and they have to get two male dogs, they don't silence them, you know, then they clash because they can't buy a female dog, so guys, come on, you can have a male and a female, you don't have to be alone. male dogs all the time, is there anything else you would advise people when they have one of these dogs and be prepared for a lot of people to ambush you because they are walking teddy bears and will attract people from all over.

I know they are definitely little celebrities in their areas talking about famous little dogs. Your dogs are becoming little celebrities. Are they because you just published a little viral video? It is not like this? Yes, you have two and a half million views and it's so beautiful, it's like this little puppy, well look at it and tell me if it's cute or not, I understand that it was all done for your son, who is feeding you all these amazing ideas of public relations. I think it's his age. Know? 12, so tic tac is still very present with him and he'll be like, oh man, we have to make this tic tac video.

I have a very good idea and my mom and I prepared it again. He had already met both the adults and the young people. Plus my grandmother told me stories about her own son turning on her once when she challenged him, so I know that despite their fluffy appearance, these dogs still have a strong protective nature and an independent streak, both adults how young people are distant. At first, but they get hot easily after a while, they also hate being grabbed or having hands put down from above. Therefore, if you want a Chow Chow, you must socialize and train exceptionally well and also with kindness and respect towards the dog.

Not only will he do what you ask, but he will also respect you. You can have children around chows as long as they are from a breeder like tomaradi who takes the time to socialize and really get the puppies used to people once you have the puppy you need. He goes out to meet lots of nice, friendly children and adults, so socialization continues without this, his independent and protective streak will rear its head and you may end up with a
