Introduction

Ancient and noble, the Lhasa Apso hails from Tibet, boasting a flowing mane-like coat that comes in various colors. This small but sturdy breed carries itself with a regal presence, often appearing larger than life. Known for their loyal and alert nature, Lhasa Apsos make excellent watchdogs and devoted companions, with an energy level that is lively without being overbearing. They do require regular grooming to maintain their luxurious coat and thrive on interaction with their human counterparts.
