What's a Chow Ambassador

As the title states - My Momma and I are Chow Ambassadors.  The word "Ambassador" has several meanings.  We fall into the 4th definition, which is:

An unofficial representative: ambassadors of goodwill.

Our goal, or mission as you will, is to educate, inform, learn and be seen by anyone who will look, talk and listen to what we have to say.  

I don't know if you all realize this but the Chow Chow breed is in the list of the "top 10" dangerous dogs.  Oh brother I say but that is just my own humble opinion and the goal is to change the opinion of others.  Ok, so I know that one will only change if they WANT to change and it's NOT my job to 'change' others.  BUT, I can and will continue to "talk the walk" and "walk the talk."  A smile and a kind word goes way further then argueing, belittling or badgering a person to see your point of view.  

If a person says "Oh, Chows are dangerous and cannot be trusted"..  My Momma says "Really, I've never had that experience."  "That's too bad you had that experience and if you want to see what a well mannered Chow is about then, by all means, come say hello to Mr. Sid Vicious"..

Some people are rude to her and tell her "NO WAY"..  Do you know what my Momma does when that happens?  LOL, she walks away, goes to the very first child she sees and let's them give me a cookie while the RUDE person watches with amaze. My Momma really could care less about the rude people of the world because she knows they will always exist and they probably live very shallow and empty lives because they are not willing to experience new and different ideas.

Why am I rambling on like this?  Well, it is a blog isn't it?  That's what blogging means..  BLOG..  It's actually a shortened word.  It originally meant Weblog..  BLOG.  

Oh, sorry, got off track...  So, if you like, follow along as I post my stories of meeting people, reading as I tell how my Momma educates and informs and see if any of her tips on interacting with others is something you'd like to try.  Being a Chow is good.  Having a great Chow parent is better and meeting people and other dogs is the best.  :)
