About Us
| I am fairly new to the breeding scene and currently have one Lhasa Apso Molly. She is a black and white bitch and has a fantastic personality full of fun and play. Let me tell you a little backgroung history of the breed. The Lhasa Apso was only bred in Tibet, by the holy men and the nobles, for at least two thousand years. They were used as watchdogs in the temples and monasteries. The people of Tibet greatly respected these little dogs as they believed they were the reincarnations of the holy lamas. They were never sold or bought but given as gifts, and it was considered a great honour to receive one. The Lhasa was first seen in Britain in the 1920's and it is reported to be rare in its native Tibet. They are intelligent little dogs that can be obstinate. Molly certainly knows how to make her presence known! They need to be trained from an early age. With patience and consistency they can become relatively obedient. They are quite sensitive and so do not respond well to raised voices, they can become withdrawn and depressed if subjected to excessively loud voices. They must not be overly spoiled as they may develop behavioural problems. The grooming requirements are considerable for this small dog. The topcoat coat of the Lhasa Apso is long, heavy and slightly rough to the touch. The undercoat is a little shorter and softer. They do require a lot of daily grooming to keep their coats looking in top condition. It is best to start getting the dog used to being groomed when it is very young. As the undercoat is so soft it must be combed to prevent any matts and tangles forming. If they are not kept properly groomed they can develop skin problems. Even though the hair goes over the eyes the eyelashes are long and strong enough to allow the dog to see very well. They also require to be bathed fairly regularly to keep them feeling clean and fresh. We keep Molly trimmed by a proffessional groomer they can advise you on how often to have them trimmed and can give advice on care of the cooat on a regular basis. Although if your animal has any skin issues I would advise speaking to your vet for the best course of action. The Lhasa Apso vary in colour anything from sandy, honey, golden, brown dark grizzle, slate, smoke, black, white and combinations of these colours. They don't shed very much either so the house is easy to keep hair free (always a bonus) We love our little Molly she is a great companion has a super personality and gives us lots of fun, we would reccommend this breed to anyone looking for a small dog to love. |
