I miss my girl Nina. She was a better dog than I was an owner. Black as coal with a purple tongue.
I have to credit chows with being the most territorial dogs ever created by God.
My former career took me into over 7000 backyards. In those with dogs I was always able make friends or else bluff my though unmolested except for those protected by a chow. I mean P R O T E C T E D.
Those critters OWN their territory.
