OMAR CHOW family photos- Priceless chow and child playing dressup

 

 

 

MORE OMAR CHOWS family photos graciously shared by Mrs Kate Cuthberts’ great granddaughter and namesake “Kate” .  The chow world is forever grateful for your family sharing these treasured images!
 
I have had these  photos in my “In Box”  since May but have just now finally found a little window of opportunity to do some digital restoration on these 4 faded memories which I asked permission to do. They are just priceless !!!
 
Kate Gemmell tells me in her email
“My mum tells me she remembers being told that these photos were of a little girl who had been very poorly so her parents bought her a chow chow to be her friend and cheer her up! Aren’t these pictures sweet? The dog is so patient!”
 
The Tea party images are so beautiful and in the horizontal one the chow is reaching out for the plate that the little girl is handing to him.
 
The “Red Riding Hood” looking scene with the chow in bed probably as the “Big Bad Wolf” had me laughing the entire time I was working on this one. It was pretty damaged but I managed to get the gist of the darling play-acting scene.
 
And then there is the baby stroller. This chow had the patience of a dog saint and seemed to know he was this little girls best friend of all.  See more about OMAR CHOWS at this link or more links below this post

I do my best to be as accurate as possible in my research, however many times written history finds a way to "morph" over time. I love your comments and appreciate all feedback, additions and corrections my readers have to offer to help make this a well rounded and accurate archive.
