About this product

Product Information

The breed was commonly described not as the chow, but as the edible dog of China. However, as the word chow means food in English, and as at one time the trade in spices and mixed pickles was known as chow chow, the chinaman himself was alluded to by Europeans as a Chow of Chink. Any Chinese commodity was called chow. Therefore, it was natural that in time the edible dog of China acquired the name of Chow Chow.
