When answering questions like this, there are two good places to start:

1.  The Investor relations pages for the company.  Often there is a FAQ section.  For Chewy,  this indicates it is a common stock traded on the NYSE.  That is good.

2.  Another is the wikipedia page that describes the company's history.  

In this case,  it's pretty complex:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chewy_(company)

It's something I'd want to have a good understanding of before I considered it as an investment.

I still have the old Stock Analysis program and I got to Stock Central and get my SSG's from there, they then download into my Stock Central Software.  I hope this helps. I went to my Stock Central, brought up an SSG on one of our stocks to try to go to the Data Tab and Company Basic Data, etc. 

Thank you,

If you look at a SSG of CHWY and look under the "Data" tab in the upper right and click on the first option "Company Basic Data" you will see that the Stock Data does NOT click on the ADR link. A check mark here would indicate it is a foreign company. Also you can go directly to the company's website from your open SSG by clicking on "Research" tab in the upper right and selecting the 2nd option of "Company Website". That will take you directly to CHWY's website. It is clearly an American company.

OK, Minh. Forgot to mention these are official model clubs run by the Golden West Chapter of BetterInvesting. I am a member of the SoCal club and a Chapter director. As chapter secretary I receive most contact requests made thru the BI webpage. The fastest way would be for you to contact me separately and I can forward your requests to the clubs.
I have spoken to the reps from both clubs and they are anxious to furnish you with any data or assistance you need and want to invite you to visit our clubs online.
