La Quinta, affectionately known as Lala, is a 1-year-old smooth-coated Chow Chow who came to us from the New Braunfels shelter. She has suffered severe hair loss on her back due to chemical burns, which might have been caused by cheap topical flea prevention or a severe flea infestation. Lala is very sweet and people-oriented, always wanting to be near her human companions. While generally low-key, Lala gets the zoomies twice a day, showing off her playful energy.
Lala has shown significant distress during thunderstorms; however, a thunder jacket has helped her cope better. She is also not fond of water. She becomes jumpy and cries when water touches her back, likely due to her past injuries. Despite this, she has never shown any aggression, even under stress.
Lala enjoys playing with other dogs and has shown little interest in cats, which means she may be compatible with a feline sibling, given proper introductions. In addition, she is highly motivated by treats and food, which can be useful for training and bonding.
**LaQuinta (Lala) is located in Magnolia, TX. Paid transport can be arranged. Transport costs range from $200-400.**

Houston Chow Chow Connection is a collaborative of dog lovers and rescuers that dedicate their time, efforts and talents toward helping rescue Chow Chows in need. We are an entirely volunteer-driven 501(c)(3) organization with no administrative costs.
Our rescue traces its origin back several years to the work of Dianne Watson. Dianne dedicated much of her young life to saving homeless Chows in North and West Texas. In her memory, Houston Chow Chow Connection continues her passion of uniting Chow Chows with perfect forever families.
HCCC began rescuing in 2013 and re-homed over 400 dogs since inception, including over 125 in 2017! Our dogs found homes on the East and West coasts of the U.S. and have traveled north and south! As we continue to rescue and re-home more and more Chows, our costs grow. As you may know, rescuing animals takes money. Not only is there the typical care and upkeep (including food and general veterinary care), some of our rescues need specialized treatments.
At HCCC we don’t pick and choose the dogs we rescue – they pick us. While the majority of our rescues are healthy, we never turn our backs on the homeless, Chows with physical issues, or disabilities. Some of our incoming babies have suffered long-term and extensive neglect. New HCCC dogs may require spay/neuter, shaving due to extensive matting, entropion and/or hip replacement surgeries, treatment of skin problems and a variety of other issues.
