If you’ve been following Percy’s story, you’ll know it hasn’t been the easiest road for this quirky, lovable boy. Chows have a reputation for being stubborn and opinionated, and Percy embodies that to a T. He’s not shy about letting you know what he thinks—he’ll grumble if you interrupt his plans, or huff dramatically if you tell him, “No, sir, don’t eat that bug.”
But here’s the thing: Percy’s not being difficult; he’s just being a Chow. Now, Percy has blossomed into the fuzzy, playful bear we always knew he could be. His coat is growing back beautifully. He loves toys, treats, and affection (sometimes all at once), which makes training both fun and productive.
But like many Chows, Percy thrives with people who truly understand him. He’s not a dog for a first-time owner—he needs someone who gets the breed’s quirks and knows how to work with them. Percy does great with humans and has no problem soaking up all the love.
What Percy Needs:
- Someone who’s familiar with Chows or independent, strong-willed breeds
- A fenced yard for play and exploration.
- No young kids—Percy’s rough play is better suited for teens and up.
- Ideally, an only-dog home, or one with a tolerant, well-trained dog and a handler willing to work through slow introductions.
** Percy is located in Spring, 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.
