Lhasa Apso

The undisputed charm of Lhasa from distant locations. Its origins are lost in the highlands of the "roof of the world", Tibet: Lhasa is the capital and "apso" means "zealous guardian".
Used as a companion dog of monks and pastors and especially to guard monasteries, was considered a sacred animal. The first written record of this breed can be found in fact in many religious texts. The Dalai Lama, he was always surrounded and his dogs followed him in all his numerous and frequent moves.

The current standard describes it as a small dog vigorous, robust, well proportioned, with abundant coat.
The character is cheerful and determined, alert, serious, sometimes reserved with strangers (function sentry dog) but very sociable with his master, with whom she lives in close contact.
E 'with an extraordinary sensitivity that makes it an excellent guardian and even seems to be able to capture natural disasters such as earthquakes and avalanches. The lhasa must be calm, intelligent, alert and independent. A lhasa can not afford to be wasting energy and hyperactive laboring important.

Cheerful and lively but with a strong temperament, they bark very little and are good guardians, given the origins, the cold weather does not scare them.
I can only wait for the return home of the master with patience and quiet without indulging in hysterics. Sometimes very stubborn, sensitive and delicate emotionally and it is important that during the period of transition from puppy to adult trauma are avoided.
Healthy and robust hardly gets sick, eats with appetite and absolutely no problems with the power supply. If you live long and well kept in good shape. Deeply respects and loves his master dearly loves to play with the kids but wants to be respected.

All that will do for the Lord will do it for love, and never by compulsion, adapting to any situation even more unusual with the peace of mind that makes it unique. The females are mothers specimens, would defend their children at all times to death, educate their offspring with great sweetness but also with great rigor, puppies should learn early to respect the rules of the pack.

They do not like arguing and if provoked looking for a amicable solution, but if the opponent is a real troublemaker certainly not in retreat!

The dogs of this breed in Italy are still relatively unknown compared to other European countries and the United States. The Club Cani Compagnia that protects the breed in our country is working to disseminate and make known to the general public the unique characteristics of this breed almost magnetic charm.
