Located Across the Nation

Adopt-A-Chow Rescue does not adopt out of their immediate area. This is because we cannot appropriately perform inspections, etc., nor maintain proper contact with the families that adopt the rescues.

All our rescue Chows are either neutered or spayed and shots are up to date. If major surgery is necessary for non give-up Chows, we have normally taken care of it beforehand.

Because all of the moneys for medical expenses come out of our personal finances, we do not have the funds available to care for Chows being given up by their families to us. Consequently, if anyone is looking for help from us in placement of their Chows, we ask that you make sure all shots are up to date, heartworm testing has been done and preventative being given, and spay/neuter has been completed. We understand that there are times when there is a particular hardship encountered by some families, and we try to work with them the best we can.

If you are intetrested in a puppy, we rarely get puppies. When we do, we have a rather long waiting list. Puppies normally go to families that have already adopted older Chows from us and have exhibited the ability to properly raise and work with a Chow, or people who have had Chows in the past and shown that they can do the same. It is very rare that we ever adopt puppies to first time Chow owners.

You will find contact information at the end of the description of many of the Chows available. That means those Chows are not in our immediate rescue program. They are Chows that are in that particular state that we have posted for someone else as a courtesy. If you should be interested in any of those Chows, please contact those people as we cannot give you any information or help you in adopting those particular Chows. As for adoption of Chows in Chow Rescue's rescue program, it is our policy that we do not adopt out of the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area.
