I don't know how anyone wouldn't want to keep all
three of your babies. I'm sure at least one of them will have the disposition of Paw Paw.
That one will probably be favored.
I use one of your photos of the babies as a screen saver. Without question, I'm a push-over
for chows.
I had a shadow chow,named Eddie for 12 years. In
July after his going blind, deaf and developing
tumors, I had to put my buddy to sleep.I'm
not quite over that yet.
So if you have no objections, I'll just continue
to love my new screen saver and plan for the day
when I can replace my pal.

I haven't seen a post yet with your decision. Have you picked a puppy? If so which one? Pictures?

Have your two little frenchy pick one. Can't take them all!
I love my Schipperke and wanted to take them all but sorry can't afford another dog. I used to joke all my friends from Schipperke group that I am puppy napper. I would kidnap them all cutie puppies! Love puppies breath and feeling soft and cuddly. Hey puppies don't last.

Dear Martha,
Please take all three!!!
You have room in your heart and in your homes. Don't separate them.

While all three are tempting, I have to agree with the commenters that noted 3 chows of the same sex would be difficult as they got older. That said, can your "girls" help with the choice? Is there one they get along with the best? It is wonderful you will be able to have at least one of Paw Paw's grandchildren. I also have to agree with the commenters who mentioned getting a chow from a rescue or shelter. We lost our 9-year-old chow girl to cancer this summer and, as tempting as puppies are, we are only looking at rescues to find a girl to go with our boys (one chow mix, one chihuahua/beagle mix). I think the best would be to get one of Paw Paw's grandsons and get an older female chow to teach him the chow ropes. All dogs are unique and special, but chows are uniquely incredible, as you know.

Martha, when the puppies visited your show today, I was drawn to the one on the right with the red leash. Which one did you choose? How did you make that choice?? They were all 3 just breathtaking.

Martha,
Take all 3 and rescue a 4th. It's wonderful that you can keep Paw Paw's lineage going but even more wonderful to rescue a Chow Chow needing a forever home.

Dear Martha,

I'm writing to you and the tears is covering my face, I've just read about Paw Paw's death.
I'm living in Egypt and your show's recent episodes have not been broadcasted yet.

As for these cute adorable creatures, I'm sure that you have a place in your home and your heart to keep them all as a tribute to Paw Paw's memory.

Nancy,
Cairo, EGYPT
