Havi, the Cream Chow Chow from Instagram user @havichow’s video, is out to clear his breed’s reputation, and he does so by mastering the game of hide and seek. In the video, the fluffy pup proves he is more than just a living teddy bear. He is also a sharp little detective.
The reel opens with the on‑screen caption, “They say Chow Chows aren’t smart…Watch this.” And if you watch it, you will see that the dog is actually not what the common opinion about his breed is.
Chow Chow is an expert in playing hide and seek in cute video
In the video, the Chow Chow’s owner walks down the hallway for a game of hide and seek as he follows her, eventually ducking into the bathroom and hiding under a towel. Havi trots in and heads straight toward the towel. Instead of running past his owner, he slows down, sniffs around his owner, and then sits beside her with his tongue out.
She stays silent, but after a few seconds, Havi lifts his paw and taps her leg. It’s like he is saying, “I know you’re in there” — and that is all it takes for the owner to come out laughing and pull the towel off her head as Havi enjoys his rewarding treat.
In the caption, his owner jokes, “When everyone thinks you’re just a fluffy cloud for home decor, but you’re actually a secret agent. ?”
Chow fans in the comments loved seeing their favorite breed get some credit. One viewer wrote, “I think they are extremely smart. Pleasing their humans is not their priority, they do whatever they want.” Another added, “Because for most people smart dog obeys commands and does tricks and chows are too intelligent to do that without their own judgement.” A fellow Chow owner chimed in with, “My chow would always find me!!! She sniffs me out so quickly!”
Judging by Havi’s performance in the video, the Chow Chow knows how to master a game of hide and seek.
