Bartleby
Have you ever wanted a cuddle-friendly, calm, but playful teddy bear? Have you always dreamed of having a Chow Chow but decided against it because you heard they weren’t very social?
Maybe you’ve wanted a Chow Chow but worried they would get too big for where you live. Or maybe you’ve simply been searching for the perfect fluffy pup who is loving, gentle, and affectionate.
If you answered YES to any of those questions, we may have the perfect boy for you! This handsome little guy is a micro Chow Chow with the sweetest personality. He is:
- Amazing with people
- Great with other dogs
- Calm, gentle, and loving
- Playful and cuddly
- Great for grooming
- An absolute fluffy teddy bear!
Bartleby's only preference? He’s not a fan of cats, so a cat-free home would be best for him.
He would make such a wonderful companion for someone looking for a Chow Chow with a more social, affectionate personality—and his smaller size makes him a great option for someone who has always wanted a Chow but couldn’t accommodate a larger one.
Bartleby is currently being fostered in Oklahoma City, OK.
Pike
Because every little adventurer deserves a BIG name, Pike was named for Pikes Peak, one of Colorado’s famous 14,000-foot summits.
PIKE'S DETAILS
- Born May 5, 2026
- Already crate trained — HUGE puppy bonus!
- Neuter completed before adoption
Pike is smart, sweet, and silly! His pictures show you what a goof he is, however, he is also smart, responds well to training, and so loving.
Pike is currently being fostered in Austin, TX.
Mo
Meet Mo! We think this 5-year-old is a Chow/Shepherd mix, and he definitely got the Shepherd brain! Smart. Trainable. Athletic. And LOVES being outside.
Mo is looking for an active person or family who wants a dog to hike, walk, run, and adventure with. He needs more exercise than your average Chow and absolutely thrives when he has something to do.
He walks well and is easy to harness, but he’s still working on leash skills. Wildlife is his weakness — squirrels, deer, you name it! He has a high prey drive and gets VERY vocal when he spots something.
- Dog selective — potentially compatible with the right female, but needs thoughtful introductions.
- Has shown promise with a savvy cat, but his prey drive means caution is needed.
- Crate trained & house trained
- No food aggression and takes treats gently.
Mo has come SO far, and we know there’s an incredible dog underneath that rough start.
Mo is currently being fostered in Fort Collins, CO.
Rufus
Meet Rufus — 100 lbs of Big Baby! Rufus may be a 100-lb Chow Mix, but his foster says he’s basically a big, shy couch potato. He has that classic Chow independence — he’s perfectly happy doing his own thing, hanging out with the other dogs, and deciding for himself when he’d like some attention. But call him over for pets? He’ll happily come see you.
And this big boy has some seriously impressive manners!
- AMAZING on leash — intuitive, thoughtful, and great at navigating gates and obstacles
- Dog friendly with chill dogs — he can get overwhelmed by pushy dogs or too much activity
- Very cat safe so far — little interest in the resident cat and no prey-drive reaction to zoomies
- Very chill energy — mostly a couch potato and may even be a good apartment candidate
- Sweet and sensitive — looks to his person for reassurance when he feels overwhelmed
- Quiet guy — rarely barks and even his big-dog bark is surprisingly muffled
- 5 years old
- Heartworm positive — treatment is covered by the rescue
Rufus isn't looking to be the life of the party. He'd rather have a calm environment, a few good walks, some cozy couch time, and a person who understands that sometimes a Chow just wants to hang out near you instead of being all over you.
And honestly? There is something pretty special about a giant dog who, when he escaped his kennel once, didn't go looking for trouble... He simply laid against the door where his foster was and waited.
Big. Quiet. Independent. A little shy. And apparently just a big baby underneath all that fluff.
Rufus is ready for his person.
Rufus is currently being fostered in Canyon Lake, TX.
Beethoven
BEETHOVEN IS READY FOR HIS FOREVER HOME! Chow mix… but mixed with what?! One thing we know for sure—Beethoven is one amazing dog!
This goofy, sweet boy is truly one of the happiest dogs his foster has ever met. He loves other dogs and has done beautifully in multiple playgroups. If he wants to play, he plays. If he's not interested, he simply walks away. He just finds his place and goes with the flow.
Beethoven smiles when he's happy—and that's pretty much ALL the time! His tail is always wagging, and he loves trotting around outside, sniffing and investigating all the things.
He's also a total gentleman in the house:
- 100% house trained
- Crate trained
- No chewing or marking
- Great with other dogs
- Did beautifully for his bath
He can be a little shy when meeting new people, but with a couple of positive introductions, he's ready to be your buddy. Beethoven is just happy to be alive, and honestly, he makes everyone around him happier too. Now we just need to find the family who will love this goofy, smiling boy as much as we do!
Beethoven is currently being fostered in Austin, TX.
Betty White
Betty is a petite little Chow Chow with a sweet, gentle, and quiet personality. She’s cautious and observant, but after just one week in foster care, she is already blossoming! Her tail is now up all the time, she happily goes in and out of her crate, follows the other dogs outside, and has even decided she should be the one leading the way to the backyard.
Betty is heartworm positive and currently receiving treatment — all heartworm treatment will be covered by HCCR until she tests negative.
Betty gets along beautifully with other dogs. Even when one playful pup grabs her tail, she simply gives him a dirty look and walks away. She truly doesn’t seem to have a mean bone in her body!
She is still learning to trust people and isn’t quite ready for lots of affection. She may get nervous when you reach into her crate, but she has shown no aggression—she simply retreats to her safe space when she needs a little extra security.
Betty loves lounging on the cool tile floor, watching the world from the front window, relaxing outside, and going for car rides! She would make an excellent little copilot for someone who loves taking their dog along for the ride.
This sweet girl doesn’t need someone to rush her. She needs someone who understands that trust takes time and is willing to let her confidence grow at her own pace. And she’s already showing us just how much she’s capable of blossoming.
Betty White is currently being fostered in Austin, TX.
