The Lhasa Apso is from Tibet.

· The Lhasa Apso was accepted for registration by the American Kennel Club in 1935.

· The Lhasa Apso was originally shown in the Terrier Group, then reassigned to the Non-Sporting Group in 1959.

So you want to own a Lhasa Apso?

The Lhasa Apso is known in Tibet as "Bark Lion Sentinel Dog." His primary function was that of a palace watchdog. His keen intelligence and acute hearing and instincts for identifying friends from strangers made him uniquely suited for the role of a watchdog.
The Lhasa Apso's coat needs regular grooming
Due to his small size the Lhasa Apso makes an ideal companion for the apartment dweller.

How neat! That worked out great! Thanks Lil & Sarge'smom. And isn't she such a sweetie! That face is so adorable.

 

She looks easy to spoil rotten! Like, how could you not want to give her anything she wanted!

 

I love her little face and huge eyes! If only I could give her the home she needs - but my house would not be to her liking, I suspect.

Awwww, so cute!

 

OH my goodnes! How adorable! She looks like she would make an elderly couple very happy!!!!


I love yorkies!

 

:-# Although, now that I think about it... her being deaf might benefit HER at my house!

 

Deaf isn't as big a problem as almost blind. And she's so small, Nala would want to snack on her. Nala would probably pick her up and toss her around, thinking she would enjoy being a live missile. Nala has trouble with perspectives other than her own.

Wait a minute... I thought Nala was a GIRL? ( :wink: )

 

You know, Nala and my husband are so similar at times that I think she was meant to be a boy.
