Bowie "Bo" Chow Chow & German Shepherd Dog Mix League City, TX

Bo: I'm a gorgeous German Shepherd/Chow mix, aka a 'Chowman Shepherd' according to my foster dad. I'm a big fluffy sweetheart who just wants to be part of a family. My major interests are plush toys, walks, chasing squirrels and playing with my foster parent's other dog. I do chase cats so I would probably not do well in a home with cats. I'm a large dog who might knock down a small child, so older, considerate children would be a much better fit. I'm house and crate trained and have great house manners. I'm a special needs dog since I've been diagnosed with hip dysplasia (common in GSD dogs). It is presently under control, but you will need to keep my weight down and my excercise up and I'll have lots of good years ahead of me. If you have time and energy for a lovable lug, then I'm the pup for you. Watch the video to see me playing with my foster sister, Willow.
