About the Lhasa Apso

The Lhasa Apso, originating from Tibet, is a thousand-year-old breed with a fascinating history. These small but hardy dogs served as sentinels at palaces and monasteries high in the Himalayas. Their regal aloofness with strangers contrasts with their comical and smart behavior within the family. Lhasas are famous for their floor-length, flat-hanging coat, which drapes each side of their body, and their dark, oval-shaped eyes peeking through lavish facial hair. Learn more
