I had 3 Chow Chows! Wanzi: Jan 30, 2006 - Mar 13, 2021 , 15 years and 2 months Wumei: Mar 31, 2007 - Oct 27, 2019 , 12 years and 7 months Penpen: May 17, 2008 - Nov 02, 2021 , 13 years and 6 months When I was in middle school, I had them. Because I loved them, after I finished my graduate studies in the United States, I brought them from China to the United States. For this, we did a lot of paperwork, various CDC animal quarantine checks, and inspections, as well as over 20 hours of international flights. Then the three of them spent their senior years here. I will miss them forever. Except for Wumei, she left me due to pneumonia and was unable to be saved, the other two dogs passed away from natural aging. However, due to breed-related issues, their joints were not good in the last year, they could not walk. I cooked for them, fed them, cleaned up after them, bathed them, gave them medication, and took them to the vet regularly. Although it was a difficult time, for me, it was a precious experience in caring for senior dogs. Their veterinarian, Mary, once said that I was one of the most patient and attentive dog owners she had ever met. I had them when I was a teenager, because I loved them, so after I graduated from graduate school, I spent a lot of money to take them to the United States to be with me by international flight. Now I have GOGO at home, during the pandemic, I adopted GOGO, a dog who had been abandoned in China. Before coming to me, she lived in a shelter center in China, there were many dogs and cats, so she could get along with any dog or cat. If your dog is mostly quiet but sometimes wants to play, then they will be the best friends！ Here is my story, and I hope it helps you know and trust me! Currently, I work from home, and my family also loves pets. They will help me take care of your furry baby. During the stay of your pets at my home, I will send you photos or videos to update their daily life. My house is almost 7000 sq feet, and pets are allowed to play freely on the main floor, including the living room and kitchen area. We will provide unlimited fresh water and treats. I have installed baby safety gates on the stairs because they are very steep, and I don't want them to be in any danger. My yard is also very large, about 2 acres, so if your dog likes to run and play, my home will surely be a great place for its short vacation! PLUS: I learned dog first aid and CPR in my best friends vet hospital in 2018.
